About Us

Hello There! We are a small group of passionate Security Professionals committed to making your business safer in the otherwise wild and hostile cyber world.

Our team has proven industry experience to identify vulnerabilities in infrastructure, networking, operating systems and applications stack. We are also well aware that the human factor is hugely influential, and through social engineering, systems can be exploited, which are otherwise technically impossible to compromise. We can also help train users to identity danger zones so they know the threats lurking around.

We will ensure -

  • To find any weak links and threats present through meticulous auditing
  • To find any vulnerabilities present through rigorous pen testing
  • To train users on the DO's and DON'Ts, so the business can stay safe from social engineering

Our team has decades of experience in Information Technologies & Software Engineering through projects developed using various platforms, tools, and environments. We are proficient in cloud, in-house, and hybrid enterprise architectures. For more than two decades, we have successfully delivered enough software projects on a broad spectrum of domains at various MNCs and Fortune 500 companies to precisely understand the necessary components that give a business its much needed robust security posture.

The early inclusion of Security practices in the design stage is the only way to ensure its seamless, discreet, and rock-solid structure. We can help design your software architecture so that it makes Security its first-class citizen and provides a smooth adherence to industry standards and compliances as needed for its enterprise-level acceptance.

What makes us your Most Preferred Security Partner

Getting "Security" right is not merely about running many scanners and certainly not a one-size-fits-all type of affair. It requires an in-depth technical insight, a thorough understanding of possible threats and attack surface area, a firm grasp of the enterprise architecture that's likely to be influenced by compliances, time, and budgeted requirements. Within these confines, Security professionals must deliver a robust solution. It also requires periodic, on-going checks as malicious brains are continually discovering new vulnerabilities and attack vectors.

  • 01 Deep understanding of Cyber Security Landscape

    Today's enterprise Solutions span across a hugely diverse spectrum of technologies and pieces of infrastructure. Each opens up its attack surface.

    Security is an all or none type of implementation. Even one weak link can collapse everything. With our knowledge in diverse technologies - legacy or contemporary - we can ensure we leave no stone unturned. We can ensure we find the vulnerabilities before any bad guys can, so it can be closed quickly.

  • We are Security Professionals with a strong background as enterprise solution architects and thoroughly understand the nuances involved in delivering a concept into a working solution.

    As your Security Partner, we can assure a non-frictional collaboration that fits well in the tight timelines, budgets, functional, and non-functional requirement changes. We know the waters can get rough close to release cycles, and sailing through them while ensuring no compromises on security is a daunting task. Trust us - we've been there, done that! And we are confident that our experience will benefit you!

  • Our ability to fix a security posture right by finding any possible issues and providing cost-effective solutions is a cornerstone for your business. We believe in a simple and easy to maintain method of implementation that lives tests of time. With more features implemented over a while, the business thrives with fewer support tickets. Our approach and solution will give you the freedom to grow on top of a scalable, maintainable, and secure foundation.

    We provide customer-friendly engagement models for consultation, development, as well as post-production support use cases.

Services

Your safe cyber existence is our success criteria. We can help through various means.

Security Audit

We can review network infrastructure, servers and user terminals, application stacks such as web applications, mobile apps, server-side components, implementations of various open-source or proprietory systems for any vulnerabilities and suggest ways to fix them.

Security Testing

Security Testing or Pen Testing is an active engagement where we find vulnerabilities and see if we can exploit them. This way, we can find and solve the problem even before attacks can find them.

Cloud Architecture

Getting your Cloud's security right is a responsibility shared between the cloud provider and the tenant. The latter is responsible for tightening all screws, nuts, and bolts.

Training

We can train development teams on various security best practices and end-users to defend against social engineering attacks. With the wide acceptance of BYOD environments, this is getting more critical by the day.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What's the difference between Security Audit and Security Testing or Pen testing?

    Security Testing or Pen testing refers to the active exploitation of vulnerabilities and reporting those to customers. Auditing refers to possible vulnerabilities discovered after a review of the system under test.

    Security Testing aims to think like attackers and try to compromise the system the way the attackers would. The Deliverable of this exercise is a detailed report explaining how the testers managed to compromise the system.

    Security Testing is typically performed on Staging or Test environments and rather than on production systems as there is always a risk of bringing the system down during the engagement.

  • According to the various reports from reputable surveys, it's predicated that cyber crimes to inflict damages totaling $6 trillion USD globally in 2021 — would be the world’s third-largest economy after the U.S. and China. [Reference]

  • Ransomware is a category of malware that encrypts software, hard-drives to extort ransom from the owner. Once encrypted, the data is practically unusable to the user until it is decrypted. Attackers demand considerable sums of money to provide the decryption keys. This type of malware enters a system generally through social engineering attacks.

  • Social Engineering is a way to lure a human user into performing an action that would be detrimental to the user's system, e.g., installing malware. Once the user falls prey, it ultimately results in the attacker assuming full control over the system.

  • It's a general belief that static websites that do not accept any input have no attack surface, which is not valid. Attacks can find vulnerabilities depending upon various factors.

  • If a device has malware, it may spread into other hosts on the network. Attackers can also use the compromised machine as a pivot to target other hosts on the network or other connected networks. They can also listen in on the network communication or steal information.

  • Phishing is a means to perform a social engineering attack. By sending a carefully crafted email that appears genuine and compelling enough for the user to take action, attackers manage to download malware on the user's computer. Once a computer is compromised, it puts the user's entire network at risk.

  • Organizations can avoid Phishing attacks only through periodic training to end-users. Technologies have advanced enough to filter out spam emails; however, a process called spear phishing can be hard to detect as spam as it is targeted only at a particular organization. Periodic user training and security testing with a focus on fake social engineering attacks are much-needed factors.
