Cloud Web Application Development

One of our focuses is software development for virtual private clouds running in your organization’s data center as well as public clouds such as Amazon S3, Google App-Engine and more.
Most of the current web application cloud environments such as Google Apps and Amazon S3 leverage distributed column-oriented databases. Unlike traditional RDBMS systems which focus on normalization, these systems require a different way of looking at your data model. Cynet Government Solutions has the expertise and experience to build your team or help guide it toward the optimum leveraging of these highly scalable systems.

Distributed Computing

Processing very large sets of mission-critical data quickly and efficiently can present many different challenges, especially when inexperienced teams are involved. It’s crucial to have the requisite knowledge and experience employed in the successful development and implementation of large-scale solutions that leverage the multifarious components of a distributed architecture. Such components include distributed filesystems and databases, job management, parallel process frameworks and more.

Cynet Government Solutions’s distributed architecture team has experience implementing solutions using many different open and closed-source platforms such as Apache Hadoop. From net-centric operations systems, which must process large amounts of raw data into usable information, to processing of financial or security event logs, a properly implemented system can handle almost anything you throw at it.

Our in-depth knowledge of ERP, combined with a pool of talented resources, enables us to deliver cutting-edge solutions through our in-house ERP practices.

Oracle

Cynet Government Solutions develops both native and mobile web applications. Our focus has slowly been moving to mobile web applications because of its flexibility and maintainability across every major mobile platform provider.

With today’s SDKs, libraries, and other mobile technologies that are available and increase of net-enabled smart phones, the mobile web approach to mobile applications gives us the freedom to develop dynamic, user-friendly features with a native app look-and-feel that works across all major mobile platforms without the added over-head and cost that come with supporting a multitude of platform-specific native app versions.Mobile web applications today offer access to most platform-specific functionality that only native applications could offer just a year back.
Today, mobile web mobile applications provide a rich “native-like” mobile interface to web applications. The mobile web approach to mobile applications gives us the freedom to develop dynamic, user-friendly features with a native app look-and-feel that works across all major mobile platforms without the added over-head and cost that come with supporting a multitude of platform specific native app versions.

Searching large amounts of data can be done efficiently leveraging a wide range of indexing technologies and platforms. Cynet Government Solutions has developed ultra-fast search functionality leveraging a wide range of open-source and proprietary technologies, platforms and web services including Apache Lucene, Apache Solr, Apache Nutch, Sphinx, Google Search, Yahoo! Boss and more..

Cynet Government Solutions’ software developers and project managers must all be trained on application security and vulnerabilities, security design principles, methods and tools for finding and testing these vulnerabilities.

We leverage a range of open-source and proprietary tools to perform application security testing, as well as performing peer code reviews, and process reviews regularly.

OWASP principles we apply:

• Apply defense in depth (complete mediation)
• Use a positive security model (fail-safe defaults, minimize attack surface)
• Fail securely
• Run with least privilege
• Avoid security by obscurity (open design)
• Keep security simple (verifiable, economy of mechanism)
• Detect intrusions (compromise recording)
• Trust infrastructure
• Trust services
• Establish secure defaults (psychological acceptability)
