Veleda Security
Security assessments and deployment help for builders
We help developers ship securely: code assessments, secrets handling, infrastructure reviews, and deployment guidance for AWS and Cloudflare.
Whether you're launching a side project, scaling a startup, or need a security review before going live, we provide practical assessments and hands-on deployment support.

Who we work with
We work with indie developers, small tech teams, and early-stage startups building on AWS or Cloudflare. You're shipping code, but need someone to check your security posture before launch, help with secrets management, or guide you through a secure deployment.
You're in the right place if:
- You need a security assessment for your codebase or infrastructure before going live.
- You're handling API keys, tokens, or secrets and want to make sure you're doing it right.
- You're deploying to AWS or Cloudflare and need help with secure configuration.
- You want monitoring and logging set up so you know what's happening in production.
- You need practical security advice that fits how solo devs and small teams actually work.
What you get
We deliver practical security help that fits how you actually build and ship:
- Code and infrastructure assessments that identify real risks before launch.
- Secrets handling guidance: environment variables, vaults, rotation, and safe storage patterns.
- AWS or Cloudflare deployment reviews with secure defaults and configuration checks.
- Security monitoring setup: logs, alerts, and dashboards tailored to your stack.
- Clear, actionable reports you can actually use, not overwhelming checklists.
- Ongoing support options if you need help after the initial assessment or deployment.
About Us
Veleda Security helps developers ship securely without the enterprise security overhead. We understand that indie developers and small teams need practical security advice, not compliance frameworks and lengthy audit reports.
Our team is distributed across Romania and the US, and we work with builders globally. We've helped developers launch side projects securely, early-stage startups set up AWS infrastructure, and solo founders fix security issues before they become problems.
Services
Code & infrastructure assessments
Review your codebase and infrastructure for common vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and security risks. Get a clear report with prioritized issues and practical fixes you can implement right away.
Secrets management & handling
Audit how you store and use API keys, tokens, database credentials, and other secrets. Get recommendations for environment variables, secret vaults (like AWS Secrets Manager), rotation strategies, and preventing secrets leaks in git history.
AWS & Cloudflare deployment support
Deploy securely to AWS (EC2, Lambda, ECS, S3) or Cloudflare (Pages, Workers, R2). We help with IAM policies, network security, TLS/SSL setup, and infrastructure-as-code configuration so your deployment follows security best practices.
Security monitoring & logging
Set up CloudWatch, CloudTrail, or Cloudflare logs to track what's happening in your infrastructure. Configure alerts for suspicious activity, failed logins, or unusual traffic patterns so you catch issues early.
How we work
We keep it simple and focused on what you actually need:
1. Quick security assessment (1–2 weeks)
Review your code, infrastructure, or secrets handling. You get a clear report with
prioritized fixes and guidance on what to tackle first.
2. Deployment support (1–3 weeks)
Help you deploy securely to AWS or Cloudflare. We work with you to set up IAM, logging,
monitoring, and secure configuration, then hand off so you can maintain it.
3. Ongoing retainer (monthly)
Ad-hoc security help: answer questions, review pull requests, assist with new deployments,
or troubleshoot security issues as they come up. Pay monthly, cancel anytime.
Example projects
- Assessed a Next.js app before launch, found exposed API keys and insecure auth flow, provided fixes the developer implemented in 2 days.
- Set up AWS Lambda deployment with Secrets Manager for a side project, configured CloudWatch alarms for errors and suspicious activity.
- Reviewed Cloudflare Workers deployment, identified missing rate limiting and insecure headers, documented recommended changes.

We typically work with a small number of clients at a time to stay hands-on and close to the engineering teams.
