Mphasis Stelligent Earns AWS Security Competency Designation
Mphasis Stelligent, a technology services company specializing in DevOps automation on Amazon Web Services (AWS), announced in July 2019 that it had achieved AWS Security Competency status. The designation recognizes the company’s demonstrated technical proficiency and proven customer success in Security Operations and Automation—particularly in the area of DevSecOps.
The AWS Security Competency differentiates Mphasis Stelligent within the AWS Partner Network (APN) as a consulting partner capable of helping enterprises adopt, develop, and deploy complex security projects on AWS. To receive the designation, APN Partners must demonstrate deep AWS expertise and the ability to deliver solutions seamlessly on the platform.
Security as a Foundation for DevOps Automation
Paul Duvall, founder and CTO of Mphasis Stelligent, emphasized the company’s philosophy on security in DevOps engagements:
“A strong security posture is absolutely essential to effective DevOps automation. With our exclusive focus on Amazon Web Services, we’re able to put security at the foundation of our AWS customer solutions. Our team takes an ‘automate everything’ approach to each engagement by automating security controls and governance through the Continuous Delivery (CD) pipeline. This allows customers to develop on AWS with more speed, consistency, visibility, and confidence, knowing security is built-in.”

Four-Phase Approach to AWS Security Automation
Mphasis Stelligent uses a structured, four-phase methodology to help enterprises automate security on AWS:
- Assessment – Profile the existing environment and identify areas for improvement in security posture and compliance gaps.
- Foundations – Determine the security strategy and lay the architectural groundwork for security and compliance controls on AWS.
- Extended Controls – Implement additional controls designed to mitigate and reduce business risk across cloud workloads.
- DevSecOps – Automate security testing and infrastructure security inspections directly within the Continuous Delivery pipeline, embedding security as a first-class concern rather than an afterthought.

At the time of the announcement, Mphasis Stelligent was working with a range of enterprise customers—including 3M Health Information Systems, Verizon, and The Washington Post—to strengthen their cloud security posture while streamlining development workflows on AWS.
