ShopSafe's Security Configuration Management Transformation

How an e-commerce leader implemented version control for security and security configuration controls to protect sensitive customer data

The Challenge

ShopSafe, a rapidly growing e-commerce platform handling millions of sensitive customer transactions monthly, faced critical security configuration challenges:

Key Challenges:

  • Ensuring PCI DSS compliance across all environments
  • Managing security configurations for rapidly expanding infrastructure
  • Preventing unauthorized access to payment processing systems
  • Maintaining consistent security controls across development and production
  • Tracking configuration drift that could lead to security vulnerabilities

With a microservices architecture and continuous deployment pipeline, ShopSafe needed robust security configuration management that wouldn't slow down their development velocity while ensuring robust protection of customer data.
