Why Zero-Trust Is the Baseline for SaaS Security in 2025
Legacy test systems rely on shared keys, implicit trust, and internal bypasses. That creates exposure to lateral movement and CI/CD abuse.
TestSeed treats every request as untrusted until it is authenticated and authorized.
Implementation in TestSeed
- Authentication via API keys or Firebase ID tokens.
- No anonymous access paths in production.
- Least-privilege enforcement on server-side writes.
Application Security Controls
Beyond infrastructure, we harden the browser surface and reduce automated abuse on critical entry points.
Browser Hardening
- Content Security Policy (CSP) to restrict scripts, frames, and data sources.
- X-Frame-Options set to DENY to block clickjacking.
- HSTS to enforce HTTPS on modern browsers.
- Referrer-Policy to limit sensitive URL leakage.
Abuse Prevention
- Firebase App Check with reCAPTCHA v3 to reduce automated abuse.
- Client tokens auto-refresh to keep protection active during sessions.
EU Hosting & Data Residency: GDPR Starts With Test Data
Test pipelines still generate logs, artifacts, and snapshots. Compliance must apply to these systems long before production.
We keep data residency aligned with EU expectations to reduce regulatory risk.
Compliance Controls
- EU-only processing and backups in Frankfurt.
- No cross-region replication for test seeds.
- Infrastructure designed for audit readiness.
Synthetic-Only Test Data: Eliminating PII Risk by Design
The safest dataset is the one that never existed. Synthetic-only pipelines remove production PII from the testing surface entirely.
TestSeed delivers deterministic generation from schemas, so teams can reproduce failures without touching real data.
Security Outcomes
- No PII exposure inside CI/CD automation.
- Safe testing at scale with consistent outputs.
- Reduced breach impact surface for test data.
