Revitt are more than just software developers. They deeply understand the connections between apps, and business processes. Their team have developed several apps from the ground up, but also create bespoke software environments for clients. The other thing that makes Revitt a great partner is that they know what they don’t know.
Three S’s: Security Security Security
Revitt has launched many production-scale apps in the past decade, each with a different workload and different commercial agreements regarding availability, security, and performance. That’s when they engage Beaty Consultancy to help design a rock-solid hosting and disaster recovery platform while they concentrate on the features and functionality of the apps they create.
Investors linked to their projects need to protect their assets, meaning they need to be assured that data is encrypted and service will not be interrupted for the app’s users. Worse, if an app becomes the victim of a cyber penetration, it could put users’ data in danger. If any of those worst-case scenarios happen, any investor with a stake in an affected app would surely take a hit to their portfolio.
That makes it sound like developers crank out code full of security vulnerabilities all the time, which just isn’t true. Unless you live and breath application and hosting security like the Beaty Consultancy team does, you can’t possibly keep on top of a landscape which shifts as quickly as the cyber security industry does.
Certification
Investors also often mandate adherence to security or governance standards. Again, that’s something which requires expert and intimate knowledge. The Revitt team are super switched-on, and could absolutely pick all this up if they wanted to – but that’s the point, they didn’t want to. They never want to dilute the powerful tech-focus running through their whole team.
Whether it’s ISO27001, ISO9001, Cyber Essentials (Plus), HIPPA, or PCI/DSS, the Beaty Team understand what assessors are looking for, and what security mitigations are appropriate for systems of different sizes.
Ransomware Protection
The average ransome demanded by attackers in 2024 was $2.7M. That’s business-ending for the vast majority of software startups, but more than that it makes it extremely difficult to acquire cyber insurance without filling in endless reams of paperwork. Again, that’s where the Beaty Consultancy team comes in. We understand what insurance companies need software businesses to have in place so they are able to confidently protect them.
The Revitt team, together with Beaty Consultancy, are able to hand over a new, fully custom app, with adequate security protections, in an insurable state, and ready for investors to take over.
