How they approach application security

  • TCS positions application security as embedded into the SDLC ("security-as-a-plugin"), emphasizing shift-left integration, security-by-design, proactive risk mitigation, and measurable outcomes.
  • The operating model combines centralized governance (CoE) and SOC-like Threat Management Centers with program-level security teams that operate independently of application development.
  • Automation, orchestration, and security-as-a-service are core to reducing manual effort, improving visibility, and accelerating remediation.

The team

  • Organizational constructs and roles: dedicated AppSec/security teams operating independently of dev teams.
  • A central CoE to provide governance, expertise, and program support.
  • Threat Management Centers/TMCs and managed MDR teams (multiple centers, referenced as 13+).
  • Roles include strategists, analysts, ethical hackers/pen testers, triage/enrichment specialists, playbook authors, incident responders, and MDR/SOAR operators.
  • Responsibilities include vulnerability discovery and automated scans, manual testing where required, triage and enrichment, playbook-based remediation, continuous maturity assessment and project-specific improvement roadmaps.

What they're working on

  • Operational priorities and stated goals: shift-left integration of security in SDLC.
  • Automation and orchestration to centralize and reduce manual triage.
  • Vulnerability discovery (automated and authenticated scanning) plus manual pen testing for higher assurance.
  • Risk-based remediation to accelerate remediation velocity.
  • Cloud, container, and API security.
  • Program-level visibility (single-pane dashboards) and governance.
  • Maturity assessments and quantified improvement roadmaps.
  • Stated outcome targets include improved visibility, faster detection and response, reduced MTTR/MTTD, reduced operational effort (examples cited: up to ~32% effort reduction, ~37% productivity gain), and 30–60% reduction in vulnerabilities in some programs..
