We build, ship, and secure software.
Two practices, one team. The engineers who build the software are the same people who attack it, so weaknesses surface early and every finding lands as an engineering fix.
The range runs from brand and product builds through AI, automation, cloud, and operations to red teams, breach remediation, a standing vCISO seat, and audit-ready compliance.

Before, during, and after an incident.
If it is not on this page, ask anyway.
These are the engagements we run most, not the limits of the firm. The businesses we build for needed brand identities, editorial sites, deal-flow tooling, speech and OCR pipelines, outreach engines, and compliance portals, so we built those too. If it involves building, running, or securing technology, bring it to a director and you will get a straight answer on scope.
Open a briefSectors we operate in, not just serve.
Five of these sectors run on systems we built and operate today. The sixth is government, where we get suppliers ready for the security questions procurement actually asks. Each page shows the work, the obligations, and the way in.

- HealthAurii
- Financial servicesStone Leaf Capital
- PropertyBold Property Group
- RecruitmentRestart Recruitment
- Government & suppliersEssential Eight uplift & supplier readiness
All five run day-to-day on systems we built and still ship to. Government is the one sector listed on capability rather than a named build, and its page says exactly that.
Engagements sized to where you are.
From a one-off test to a standing engineering team. Every engagement starts by reading your real operating risk.
Fixed-scope engagement
Startups & SMB
A penetration test, review, or build with a clear target, timeframe, and deliverable.
Ongoing advisory / vCISO
Mid-market & enterprise
A standing security seat: strategy, review, and board-ready reporting on a regular cadence.
Compliance program
Regulated businesses
A milestone-driven program toward Essential Eight, SMB1001, ISO 27001, or Privacy Act readiness.
Embedded engineering
Product owners
A standing build team that designs, ships, and operates software under an ongoing engagement.
Every engagement is run by the team that holds SMB1001:2026 Gold and ships production software every week.
