Who We Are
OUR MISSION: To protect as many businesses and their employees’ livelihoods as possible, while giving back to the communities we serve.

Why We Are Here
We know how hard you have worked to build your business over the years, and we are grateful that you have given our team the chance to protect it. We got into this business to protect other business owners just like you.
Working with our government partners to proactively hunt and reverse-engineer malware from the most sophisticated attackers worldwide has been a very rewarding experience for us and our clients. This has also allowed us to prevent any data breaches to our clients leveraging our ThreatINTELLIGENCE platform since it was launched over 6 years ago!

Managed Cybersecurity Services Task Force


Ethical Hackers
Provide information security assessments (Penetration Testing, Ransomware Attack Simulations, threatINTELLIGENCE Live Forensics) for our clients and partners and receive continuous updates for exploits and malware from the Software Development Security Operations Team (reverse-engineering) and our Threat Intelligence Analysts. This ensures that our clients are testing against the latest threats as opposed to older threats that are taught in traditional ethical hacking certification courses.

Threat Intelligence Analysts
Collect malware and malicious traffic from fake business networks (honeypots) positioned strategically around the globe that are designed to be attacked. This team analyzes those threats for anything new and novel and then passes them on to the Software Development Security Operations Team for reverse-engineering and the Ethical Hacking Team for testing.

Software Development Security Operations
Our DevSecOps Team (that’s their nickname) breaks down the newest and most complex malware from all over the world long before most in the United States have seen it. The moment they have reverse-engineered any malicious processes, those are passed back to the Ethical Hacking Team for testing and to our clients via our threatINTELLIGENCE platform to stop malicious traffic in real-time.
