Expert-led offensive cyber security
A breach in an estate your size is rarely dramatic. It is a dead subdomain, an unrotated supplier key, a password from a dump. We replicate the route, then show you exactly what it reaches.
Already across the industry
Capabilities
Everything we do is one of these. We attack your systems so you learn what an adversary reaches, and we watch them so you learn the moment one tries.
You cannot defend what you have never seen attacked. We pursue an agreed objective the way a real adversary would, across people, process and technology, then show you every step we took.
Most breaches are not clever, they are unwatched. We build the detection, then run it: a named analyst on every shift and a structured notification when something matters.
Built by the same engineers. The people who write the detection spend their week evading it.
Who you are working with
Surge runs payments for 40,000 merchants and products used by millions. When we test your platform we are testing something we have had to build, secure and keep running ourselves. That is why we know where the assumptions hide.
The gap
Your register describes what you meant to build. Your attack surface is what you actually left running.
The debrief
We agree an objective with your board, pursue it as an adversary would, then replay the whole campaign beside your defenders.
Crown jewel named, rules of engagement signed by your board.
AuthorisedStaff, suppliers and stale infrastructure mapped from public sources.
No alertOne person in Finance entered credentials on a page we controlled.
Fired, not investigatedAccess made persistent, surviving the controls meant to remove it.
No alertPrivileges escalated, then movement across the estate toward the objective.
Closed as false positiveCardholder data store opened. Nobody in the organisation raised a hand.
No alertHow an engagement runs
The same five steps whether we are attacking or defending. Nothing starts until the scope and the rules of engagement are signed by both sides.
Assets, threat model and success criteria, agreed in writing.
Signed rules of engagement naming the assets, the window, the escalation contacts and the stop conditions.
Agents cover the ground. Every candidate is confirmed by an engineer before it reaches you.
The written report, then an engineer taking your team through it line by line.
We verify your fixes once they land. Included, never billed separately.
What you get
A finding that takes a paragraph gets a paragraph. Nothing padded to justify a fee.
You see what was tested and what came back clean, not only what broke.
Reproduced by an engineer and shipped with a working proof of concept.
Rated on exploitability and impact in your environment, not a generic score.
A version written for your customers and auditors, with your sign-off on it.
Once your fixes land we verify them. Included, never billed separately.
The way out
Five questions. We will tell you honestly whether a red team is the right thing for you right now, and what we would run instead if it is not.
