Currency & pricing

Prices, invoices and reports in Chilean peso (CLP), with the transaction currency and FX rate stored on every record for cross-border sales.

Tax (VAT / GST)

Chile applies VAT (IVA) 19%. We build tax-correct pricing, invoice fields and exportable tax reports; your accountant confirms treatment for your products.

Payments

Customers in Valparaíso expect Webpay (Transbank), Khipu transfers and Mercado Pago — integrated with automatic reconciliation.

Data protection

Personal data is governed by Law 19.628, being replaced by Law 21.719 (new data-protection agency). We build consent, encryption, access logs and in-region hosting where required.

24/7 availability

Valparaíso is on UTC−3 (India (IST) is 8h 30m ahead). Our team works 24/7, so your full business day and any out-of-hours incident are covered.

Delivery timeline

Discovery starts within 5 business days of a signed proposal. Most cybersecurity & compliance engagements ship a first production release in 6–14 weeks, with demos every two weeks.

The Challenge

Problems we see teams struggling with

Unreviewed architecture before scale-up

Security debt compounds quickly once a platform is handling real transaction volume and regulator scrutiny.

API and application vulnerabilities

Unsecured APIs are one of the most common entry points for breaches in fintech and payments platforms.

Manual AML/KYC processes

Manual identity verification and sanctions screening slow onboarding and create compliance gaps.

Audit and licensing readiness gaps

Missing logging, access controls, or reporting capability can block a licensing application or banking partnership.

No incident response plan tested before it's needed

The first real test of an incident response plan shouldn't be an actual breach — untested plans routinely fail at the exact moment they matter most.

Sanctions screening gaps at onboarding

Screening that runs once at account opening but never again misses risk that emerges after a customer relationship is already established.

Our Approach

What our cybersecurity & compliance work covers in Valparaíso

Secure architecture review

Threat modeling and architecture review across infrastructure, application, and data layers before you scale.

API security engineering

OAuth2/OIDC hardening, rate limiting, input validation, and abuse protection for public and partner APIs.

AML/KYC compliance software

Identity verification, sanctions/PEP screening, and transaction monitoring workflows built into your platform.

Penetration testing & remediation

Independent penetration testing coordination with hands-on remediation of findings.

Smart contract & blockchain security

Security review for on-chain systems, custody flows, and wallet infrastructure.

Audit-ready logging & reporting

Immutable audit trails and regulator-ready reporting exports built into the platform, not bolted on.

Ongoing sanctions and PEP re-screening

Continuous re-screening against updated sanctions and politically-exposed-person lists, not just a one-time check at onboarding.

Incident response planning and testing

A documented, rehearsed incident response plan so the first time your team executes it isn't during an actual breach.

Our Approach

Our approach to development methodologies

Our approach to custom software engineering draws on a range of methodologies, each selected to match the needs of your cybersecurity & compliance project and your team in Valparaíso, Chile.

Agile Scrum

Best for: Evolving products

Two-week sprints with a working demo at the end of each, so cybersecurity & compliance priorities can change as you learn from users.

Kanban

Best for: Continuous delivery & support

A visual flow of small tasks with work-in-progress limits — ideal for maintenance, integrations and post-launch improvements.

Fixed-scope (Waterfall-style)

Best for: Well-specified builds

Requirements signed off up front with a fixed timeline and price — best when scope is clear and change is unlikely.

Lean MVP

Best for: New ventures

Build the smallest cybersecurity & compliance release that proves demand, measure it with real users, then invest where the data points.

DevOps & CI/CD

Best for: Every project

Automated tests, infrastructure-as-code and push-button deployments so releases are frequent, reversible and boring.

Security-by-design (DevSecOps)

Best for: Regulated & high-value systems

Threat modelling, dependency scanning and code review built into each sprint rather than a pen test at the end.
