How Trustefi works in practice.

Common situations our products and services are built for, from a mistyped package name to a new regulation.

Illustrative scenarios based on situations companies commonly face.

01

Stopping a typosquatted package in CI

Challenge
A developer mistypes a package name, and a look-alike package with a hidden install script is pulled into the build.
How Trustefi helps
Customs inspects the package before install, recognises the imitation and stops it with a clear explanation.
Outcome
The malicious code never runs, and the developer gets the correct package name straight away.
02

Producing SBOMs for the Cyber Resilience Act

Challenge
A maker of connected products needs to show exactly which software components ship in each release.
How Trustefi helps
Manifest records every dependency that passes through Customs and produces a software bill of materials for each build.
Outcome
Release documentation is generated automatically and is ready for customers and authorities.
03

Avoiding a certificate outage on the factory floor

Challenge
Device certificates used by machines and MQTT brokers expire without anyone noticing.
How Trustefi helps
Strongroom discovers every certificate in the OT network and alerts the right owner well before expiry.
Outcome
Renewals become planned work instead of emergency downtime.
04

Finding secrets left in code

Challenge
API keys and passwords have been committed to repositories and copied into build logs over the years.
How Trustefi helps
Strongroom scans repositories and logs, ranks findings by risk and guides the rotation of each credential.
Outcome
Exposed credentials are replaced before they can be misused.
05

Getting ready for NIS2

Challenge
A mid-sized company learns it is in scope of NIS2 but does not know where to start.
How Trustefi helps
A Rampart Survey maps the gaps, and Rampart Build puts the missing controls in place together with the IT team.
Outcome
The company can show management, auditors and customers a documented security baseline.
06

Rolling out an AI assistant safely

Challenge
Employees already use public AI tools with customer data, and management wants a sanctioned alternative.
How Trustefi helps
Citadel reviews the risks, agrees policy with management and deploys a private assistant with guardrails.
Outcome
Teams use AI openly, and sensitive data stays inside the organisation.
07

Answering customer security questionnaires

Challenge
Large customers send long security questionnaires that take weeks to answer.
How Trustefi helps
Rampart documentation and Customs Manifest provide ready evidence on controls, suppliers and software components.
Outcome
Answers become faster, consistent and backed by documentation.
08

Responding to a newly disclosed vulnerability

Challenge
A critical vulnerability is published in a widely used library late on a Friday.
How Trustefi helps
Inspector identifies which builds use the affected version, and Night Watch prepares an upgrade for review.
Outcome
The team quickly knows where it is exposed and has a fix waiting for approval on Monday morning.

Industries

Manufacturing

Connected machines, OT networks and products with digital elements. NIS2 and the Cyber Resilience Act both apply, and one expired device certificate can stop a production line.

Most relevant

Software and SaaS

Teams that ship every day on open source and cloud. Supply chain attacks and leaked secrets are the risks that matter most, and customers ask for proof.

Most relevant

Energy and utilities

Critical infrastructure under NIS2, with long-lived OT systems where uptime and certificate health cannot fail.

Most relevant

Finance and fintech

Regulated teams that must show control over third-party code, keys and AI use to supervisors and customers, under rules such as DORA and NIS2.
