We find the vulnerabilities. Then we help you fix them.
Pen testing, code audits, and environment hardening for regulated and restricted systems. Threat-model-driven testing by engineers who've operated in the environments they're assessing — not checkbox security from a scan template.
Book Security AssessmentThreat-model first · TS/SCI-cleared staff · CAGE 10S34
Cleared programs (TS/SCI and below): we staff cleared personnel for delivery when the requirement exists and contracting supports it. Specifics are confirmed during acquisition and onboarding.

How We Test. How We Harden.
Every engagement starts with your threat model — not a scan template. We scope to what actually matters in your environment, then work the problem until it's fixed.
Threat Modeling & Scoping
We identify the adversaries targeting your sector, map your attack surface, and scope the engagement to the paths that would cause real damage. No boil-the-ocean approaches — just the tests that matter to your mission and your risk posture.
Offensive Testing
Red team engagements, adversary simulation, and controlled exploitation. We chain vulnerabilities, demonstrate lateral movement, and measure blast radius — then hand your defenders the exact playbook of what happened and how.
Analysis & Prioritization
Findings ranked by exploitability and business impact — not CVSS score alone. Every vulnerability gets a proof-of-concept, a blast radius assessment, and a remediation path your team can actually execute.
Remediation & Hardening
We don't walk away after the report. Architecture changes, configuration hardening, code fixes, and policy updates — implemented alongside your team. Then we retest to confirm the fixes hold.
Offensive & Defensive Capabilities
Technical security from people who have done the work inside classified programs, air-gapped enclaves, and ITAR-controlled environments. Not consultants reading from a framework checklist.
Penetration Testing
Red team engagements and adversary simulation scoped to your actual threat profile. External, internal, and assumed-breach scenarios. We test the attack paths that matter to your mission — not every port on every host. Findings include full kill chains, not just scanner output.
Vulnerability Research
When a scanner flags something, we prove whether it's exploitable in your environment and what the blast radius looks like. Controlled proof-of-concept development, zero-day analysis for custom software, and mitigations your team can actually implement within your change control windows.
Code Audit & Binary Analysis
Source code review and binary analysis for software headed into air-gapped or ITAR-controlled deployments. Static and dynamic analysis, dependency chain auditing, and supply chain risk assessment. We harden before deployment — not after an incident.
Red Team / Blue Team Operations
Full-spectrum adversary simulation: initial access, persistence, lateral movement, data exfiltration — with real-time coordination with your defensive team. Purple team exercises that build detection capability, not just a list of findings.
Compliance & Certification Support
CMMC, SOC 2, NIST 800-171, FedRAMP, RMF/ATO, and FISMA assessment support. Gap analysis through assessment day — from a team that also does the technical security work, not just the paperwork. SSP authoring, POA&M management, and evidence packaging.
AI Security & Adversarial ML
Threat modeling for AI/ML systems: adversarial input testing, model extraction attacks, data poisoning analysis, and prompt injection testing. Security architecture review for AI deployments in classified and regulated environments.
Common Questions
What is threat-model-driven penetration testing?
We scope pen tests to your actual threat profile — the adversaries targeting your sector, your network topology, and the attack paths that would cause real damage. This is not a Nessus scan with a PDF. We build a threat model first, then test the paths that matter.
Do you test air-gapped and classified environments?
Yes. We staff cleared personnel (TS/SCI and below) when the contracting vehicle and program requirements support it. Our testing methodologies account for disconnected networks, constrained hardware, and environments where commercial scanning tools are not available or approved.
What is the difference between a vulnerability assessment and a penetration test?
A vulnerability assessment identifies potential weaknesses — typically scanner-driven. A penetration test proves exploitability: we chain vulnerabilities, demonstrate lateral movement, and measure blast radius in your actual environment. We deliver both, but the pen test is where organizations learn what their real risk posture looks like.
What compliance frameworks do you assess against?
NIST SP 800-171 (and CMMC 2.0), NIST SP 800-53, FedRAMP, SOC 2 Type II, FISMA, RMF/ATO, and DFARS 252.204-7012. We also support IL4/5/6 assessments and ITAR-controlled environment reviews. The compliance work is done by the same engineers who do the technical security work — not a separate audit team.
How do you handle code audits for ITAR-controlled software?
Source code review and binary analysis for ITAR-controlled software follows a strict chain of custody: access controls aligned to your technology control plan, no data exfiltration from your environment, and findings documented at the appropriate classification level. We harden before deployment — not after an incident.
What does a typical engagement timeline look like?
Scoping and threat modeling takes 1-2 weeks. Penetration testing runs 2-4 weeks depending on environment size and complexity. Vulnerability research and code audits vary by codebase size. Remediation support is ongoing. We deliver findings as we go — not in a 200-page report at the end.
Start with the Threat Model, Not the Checklist
We scope to exploitability and blast radius — not scan output volume. The security assessment begins with your environment, your threat actors, and what your team can realistically fix.
