Know what to fix. Keep building.
I help founders and engineering teams find and fix security issues in their software—from a first AI-built app to services that have been running for years.

You’ve built something worth protecting.
Getting an app working is a big step. A security review helps you see what needs attention before you put more customers and data on it.
For founders and engineering teams
Is a security review the right next step?
Who it fits: founders and engineering teams putting an AI-built app, API, or established service in front of customers, especially when it handles accounts, payments, or private data.
When the free planner is enough: use it to choose checks and collect evidence when your team can investigate and fix the results itself. It gives you a plan, not an independent assessment.
What a paid review delivers: a scoped code and configuration review, targeted tests where permitted, findings tied to evidence, a fix order, and a walkthrough. Fixes and retesting can be scoped separately.
Scope before access
We agree on the code, systems, test boundaries, tool access, and data handling before work starts. You can tell me if review work must stay in your environment.
After a short discussion of the app and the questions you need answered, I provide a fixed quote and timeline for the agreed scope.
Tell me what needs reviewing →Use the free planner →Start with what your app does.
These are some of the questions we can answer. We’ll choose the ones that fit your app.
Customer data and permissions
Can one customer see or change another customer’s records? Do permissions still work when someone calls the API directly or downloads an export?
Explore access checks →Database access and API keys
Who can read and change your data? Are private API keys showing up in browser code or logs? We check the code and the settings of the running app.
Explore data checks →Payments, integrations, and usage
Can someone get paid features without paying, spend the same credit twice, or run up your AI bill? Do connected services use the right customer’s account?
Explore payment and service checks →Files, links, and third-party code
What happens when someone uploads a file or asks your app to open a link? We check how that input is handled and which security alerts in the libraries you use need attention.
Explore input checks →AI features and agents
What can your agent read, change, or send? Could instructions hidden in a document lead it to share private data or take an action it shouldn’t?
Explore agent checks →A customer can download someone else’s export.
The app checks that someone is signed in before letting them download an export. It never checks whether that export belongs to their organization.
Owner requests export
Allowed
Other organization
Also allowed
How to fix it
Check who owns the export before creating the download link. Add a test: the owner can download it; someone from another organization can’t.
The report points to the code, shows how the problem happens, and explains how to check the fix.
Here’s how a review works.
Talk through your app
You show me what you’re building and what you’re concerned about. We agree on what to review, what access I’ll need, and where we can safely run tests.
Check the code and try things out
I use automated scans and AI tools to help find possible issues, then dig into the code and settings. Where we can test a concern, I check what actually happens.
Decide what to fix first
We walk through what I found, why it matters, and how to fix it. The report shows what I tested and flags anything that still needs a closer look.
You’ll have the completed scope, evidence, and any open items. Your team can take it from there, or I can help with the fixes.
Work directly with Curtis Myzie.
I’m a software engineer and the founder of Deep Noodle. I’ve spent 20+ years building production systems, including work in cloud security. I’ve been a CTO, VP of Engineering, and VP of Product, and I build with AI and agent tooling every day.
More about my background →Want to try a few checks yourself?
Tell the planner what your app does. It’ll suggest what to check, how to check it, and prompts you can use with your AI tools.
Open the review planner →Review with your agent. Keep the results local →A few things you might be wondering.
Let’s talk about your app.
Tell me what you’re building and what’s on your mind. We’ll work out where a review would help.
