Q1: What exactly is Red Hawk SCA?

An internal Red Hawk tool for software composition analysis (SCA) —it scans codebases, identifies vulnerabilities, and creates automated work items for remediation.

Q2: Is Red Hawk SCA available to clients?

Yes—Red Hawk SCA is currently available as part of select Red Hawk service engagements. Today, it is used to automate documentation, maintain the software bill of materials, scan for security vulnerabilities and trigger AI agentic workflows to remediate source code. Broader packaging and standalone offerings are still evolving, but the underlying capability is already delivering value within active client environments.

Q3: Does Red Hawk SCA scan custom code?

Yes. Red Hawk SCA can scan custom code, including code we didn’t develop. However, it focuses strictly on identifying common vulnerabilities and exposures—it does not evaluate code quality or how the code was written.

Q4: Can these AI-First gains apply to client projects?

Yes. The same SDLC approach we used on Red Hawk SCA is already accelerating delivery and clarity on client engagements.

Q5: How often should we scan our application?

Monthly is common. Higher-risk or mission-critical applications may benefit from continuous or automated scanning.

After Prototype Approval: Choosing the Right Delivery Model for Production

By Matt Strippelhoff

Prototype approval authorizes investment-but production confidence depends on what happens next. Approving a clickable prototype confirms strategic alignment, validates direction, and signals readiness to move forward. It is not a technical milestone-it is a leadership decision to commit capital. What approval does not define is how production will be delivered,...

What Happens After the Prototype? Three Paths Leaders Take

By Matt Strippelhoff

TL;DRA clickable prototype isn't a green light to build-it's a decision gate. After a prototype, executive teams typically land in one of three places: ready to build with confidence, needing refinement before committing capital, or choosing to pause or pivot with evidence. Each path is a success when it's informed....

Clickable Prototypes: The Decision-Making Shortcut CEOs Need

By Matt Strippelhoff

Vol. 2, Issue 6 A Message from Matt As we step into a new year, one truth has become unmistakable: leaders don't just need more data to make smart software decisions-they need clarity. Not more documentation. Not more hypotheticals. They need to experience what's possible. AI-first discovery is giving CEOs...
