Secure MVP Architecture for 90-Day Delivery

Secure MVP delivery depends less on compressing late-stage review and more on making security part of the first architecture decisions. The article explains how compliant infrastructure, early authentication and authorization, secure data design, CI/CD security scanning, threat modeling, penetration testing, production hardening, and audit-ready documentation reduce the need for later remediation. It also defines production readiness through data protection, access control, monitoring, logging, and compliance evidence. Leaders should treat security as a delivery architecture, not a final release gate.
