Weak authentication or data handling exposes customers. Security reviews reduce this. Teams in Lillestrøm usually raise this in the first call.

Confusing flows cause drop-off. Prototypes tested with real users reveal problems early. We see this regularly with IT consulting businesses in Lillestrøm and Asker.
