Deploy on a secure, compliant foundation—faster. LaunchPad is the full expression of 38North Security’s compliance engineering practice, helping Cloud Service Providers accelerate their entry into highly regulated markets.
LaunchPad by 38North Security accelerates your path to compliance by combining pre-built secure infrastructure with expert advisory support—enabling your SaaS team to deploy compliant environments faster, retain full control, and avoid vendor lock-in.
Built on a pre-configured AWS Landing Zone and designed to align with FedRAMP Moderate requirements, LaunchPad provides a secure, assessment-ready foundation to deploy your applications – customizable to your architecture and backed by proven engineering and compliance guidance.
Unlike turnkey DevSecOps platforms that limit control, LaunchPad gives you a foundation you own—built for velocity, security, and long-term flexibility.
LaunchPad distills the core building blocks of 38North’s Compliance Engineering practice into a secure, deployment-ready foundation—engineered for speed, adaptability, and credibility.
If you’ve already started with Compliance Engineering, LaunchPad is the logical next step: a hardened on-premise solution that will accelerate your groundwork into go-to-market readiness—with support for assessment preparation and documentation development.
Not ready for full deployment? Start small. LaunchPad modules—including CI/CD best practices, logging, scanning, or IAM—can be delivered independently and expanded as needed.
LaunchPad turns your engineering building blocks into a secure, compliance-aligned deployment—guided by modular services and embedded advisory.
Every LaunchPad deployment is guided by the same advisory team trusted by leading SaaS vendors and public sector partners. We don’t just build—we coach, translate, troubleshoot, and adapt alongside your team through each phase of compliance planning and execution.
Our engineering team leads implementation in close partnership with yours—ensuring clean handoff, sustainable operations, and audit alignment. We deliver LaunchPad through an infrastructure + advisory model, in structured phases tailored to your mission and environment.
