Security that empowers builders, not bureaucrats.
Security has a gatekeeping problem. Most security companies treat every client like a Fortune 500 enterprise. They deliver 200-page reports full of jargon, charge enterprise prices, and make you feel dumb for asking questions.
That's not how we work.
TamperTantrum Labs exists because application security should be accessible to everyone building software. Not just the companies with massive budgets and dedicated security teams.
We believe security is about empowerment, not fear. Our job isn't to scare you with what could go wrong. Our job is to help you understand what's actually at risk in your specific application, and give you a clear path to fix it.
Building a SaaS product in your spare time? We get it. You're focused on shipping, not becoming a security expert. We'll test your app, find what actually matters, and help you fix it.
Preparing for your first security assessment? Trying to impress investors with your security posture? We'll help you prioritize what actually needs attention and what can wait.
Your team is shipping fast and security keeps getting pushed to "next sprint." We'll help you integrate security into your workflow without becoming a bottleneck.
Running a project that handles user data? Want to make it safer for contributors? We work with OSS maintainers to secure projects without requiring enterprise budgets.
Want to offer security as a value-add to clients? We can help you deliver secure applications and teach you what to look for along the way.
Don't speak dev fluently but need to understand your security posture? We translate security into business terms: what's at risk, what it costs to fix, what happens if you don't.
Our reports are written for developers, not security teams. We explain what we found, why it matters, and exactly how to fix it.
We're not here to scare you into buying more services. We tell you what's actually at risk in your specific application.
Security gaps don't mean you're a bad developer. They mean you prioritized shipping. We meet you where you are.
Automated scanners miss the stuff that matters. We do manual testing to find the vulnerabilities that actually put your users at risk.
Security shouldn't slow you down. We show you how to catch issues in CI/CD and integrate security into your existing process.
Got questions while implementing our recommendations? Need help explaining a finding? We're here. Security doesn't end when we deliver the report.
No "contact us for pricing" BS. Our packages have clear prices. You know what you're paying before we start.
"Your application exhibits a high-severity authentication bypass vulnerability (CVE-2023-12345) in the OAuth implementation, potentially resulting in unauthorized access to protected resources."
"We found a way to bypass your login by manipulating the OAuth redirect. Here's how an attacker would do it [example]. Here's how to fix it [code snippet]. Here's how to test it [curl command]."
Brenda is an offensive security practitioner who went from legal support to cybersecurity in record time. She earned a cybersecurity degree and 7+ security certifications in 6 months while raising 3 kids (including an infant).
She was in the Top 3% on TryHackMe, competed in the DoD Cyber Sentinel CTF Challenge (Top 11%), and knows what it's like to build something with limited time and resources.
Brenda founded TamperTantrum Labs because security expertise shouldn't only be accessible to enterprises. She works with solo developers, startups, and small teams who want to ship safely without the gatekeeping, jargon, or fear-mongering.
It's what happens when security researchers can't resist poking at your application. We throw tantrums at your software so bad actors don't get the chance. Plus, with toddlers at home, Brenda knows a thing or two about actual tantrums.
Stop wondering if your app is secure. Let’s find out together. No jargon, no judgment, just practical help from someone who gets it.
