Independent offensive security

Nearly two decades
of offensive security

Almost 20 years in security, penetration testing as a consultant since 2018, now applied as much to LLM applications and agentic systems as to the networks, applications, and people most attackers still go after first. Principal-led engagements, manual testing, and a report your engineers can actually act on.

What we do

Core practice areas, assessed in depth

Specialization is the point. These are the systems we spend our time inside, and the ones where a generalist assessment leaves the most on the table.

AI & Agentic Security Assessments

Adversarial testing of LLM applications, RAG pipelines, and agentic systems: prompt injection, tool abuse, data exfiltration, and the failure modes that only appear once a model can act.

Penetration Testing

Manual, objective-driven testing of web applications, APIs, and networks (internal, external, wireless, and physical), built on hands-on consulting experience since 2018, not a scanner with a report template.

Rapid Assessment

A fixed-price, five-day internal network assessment focused on the quick wins and heavy hitters (the handful of issues that give real attackers their first foothold) at a fraction of what the larger firms charge for the same depth.

AI-Assisted Penetration Testing

Agentic AI accelerates reconnaissance, enumeration, and evidence correlation across an engagement, run through isolated infrastructure: Amazon Bedrock in a dedicated environment, or a private model on in-house bare metal when nothing can leave the building.

Coming soon

Continuous Penetration Testing

An always-on view of your external attack surface (open ports, exposed services, web app changes, and cloud asset drift), flagged continuously instead of once a year, with findings and threat intel in a live customer portal. Currently in development.

Why InFocus

A senior consultant, not a staffing tier

You work with the person testing
No handoff from a principal on the sales call to a junior on the engagement. The consultant who scopes your assessment is the one who performs it and the one who answers your questions afterward.
Manual testing, automated coverage
Tooling establishes breadth quickly. Everything that ends up in your report was found, verified, and exploited by hand, because business logic and authorization flaws do not show up in a scan.
Findings, not a vulnerability dump
Each issue arrives with severity, real business impact, reproduction steps, and a specific fix for your stack. Individually minor issues get chained into the realistic worst case.
Validation built into every finding
Each finding ships with the exact steps to confirm the fix, so your team can verify remediation and close the loop on its own, without buying a second assessment.

Engagement model

How an engagement runs

The same five steps on every engagement, so you know what happens next and when.

  1. 01

    Scoping call

    Twenty minutes, no cost, no sales engineer. We talk through your architecture and what you actually need to know, and you get a straight answer about whether we are the right fit.

  2. 02

    Proposal & rules of engagement

    Fixed-price proposal with explicit scope, objectives, timeline, and testing windows. Nothing starts until the paperwork and the escalation contacts are agreed in writing.

  3. 03

    Testing

    Active testing with a direct channel to the consultant throughout. Critical findings are reported the day they are confirmed rather than held for the final report.

  4. 04

    Report & debrief

    Full technical report plus an executive summary, followed by a live walkthrough with the teams who own the fixes.

  5. 05

    Validation

    Every finding ships with the steps to confirm the fix, so your team can verify remediation on its own and close the loop whenever it's ready.

Full-spectrum coverage

Additional services

Beyond the core practice areas above, scoped on their own or folded into a broader engagement.

  • Purple Team Exercises

    Collaborative, iterative exercises where offense and defense work side by side in real time, testing detections as they're built, not after a report ships weeks later.

  • General Security Consulting

    Independent advisory spanning both offensive and defensive security: architecture decisions, tooling, program build-out, and a second opinion when it matters.

  • Risk Assessments

    NIST CSF– and ISO 27001–aligned risk assessments that identify and prioritize risk to critical assets, with a roadmap leadership can actually act on.

  • Policy & Governance

    Security policy, standard, and procedure development, or maturing what you already have into something an auditor, and your own team, can actually use.

  • Audit & Compliance Readiness

    Technical preparation for SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, PCI DSS, or a customer security questionnaire: evidence gathered and gaps closed before the auditor asks.

  • Virtual CISO / Security Program Advisory

    Ongoing governance and program leadership for teams without a full-time security hire. Retainer-based, scoped to your roadmap.

Let's talk about what you're shipping

Scoping conversations are free and usually take twenty minutes. You will speak directly with the consultant who would do the work.
