Cipher Baseline

Your hardest environment, exploited end to end.

A one-time assessment of the system that matters most. Autonomous, and led by our experts, it reasons the way the best do: adversarially and architecturally. No platform to onboard. Define the scope, agree a flat price, and get back validated, exploitable findings, each one proven.

  • Flat price, agreed up front
  • Led by our experts
  • Zero retention once tested

the engagement

Cipher, pointed at your stack. Nothing to onboard.

Most security tools ask you to wire them into everything before they return a single finding. A Baseline doesn't. You point Cipher at the environment that matters and it goes to work like an adversary who also reads your architecture, finding the chains that only surface when you reason across the whole system at once.

Point it at anything

Internal & external appsNetworks & infrastructureCloud & IaCOT, ICS & manufacturingCritical infrastructureThick & desktop clientsAPIsAI / LLM systems

Pointed at your stack

No agents, no connectors, no rollout plan. Access and objectives are enough; the first finding does not wait on an integration project.

Autonomous, led by experts

Machine-scale reach and chaining across the whole environment, directed by operators who have done this work by hand. Breadth from the engine, judgment from the people.

Flat price, defined scope

One number for the whole engagement, fixed before we start. It holds even when the environment turns out harder than anyone expected.

the method

Understand the business. Map the boundaries. Then break it.

It approaches your system the way a seasoned operator would: understand what actually matters, find the seams where trust is misplaced, then prove the path by exploitation.

1

Understand the business

We start from what actually matters to you: the data, the money, the actions worth attacking. Real objectives, not a generic checklist.

2

Map the design & trust boundaries

Then the architecture: how the system is built, where it assumes trust, where one service quietly speaks for another. The seams are where real exploits live.

3

Actually exploit it

Then we prove it. Cipher executes the chain end to end, the way an adversary would, until there is a validated path to real impact.

on the public record

Not a demo. A public record.

The same engine finds original vulnerabilities in software the world actually runs, open source and enterprise alike, reported upstream and fixed.

how it works

Define scope. Agree a price. Get proof.

01 Define the scope Tell us the environment and the objectives that matter: a single service, a product, or the whole estate.
02 Agree a flat price One fixed price, agreed before anything runs. No metering, no overage, no per-seat licensing.
03 End-to-end run Cipher works the full environment under our experts' direction, chaining across services, identity, and infrastructure.
04 Exploit-proven findings Every finding validated by execution: attack path, reproduction, and the fix. Nothing left for you to re-triage.

Zero retention once tested.

the deliverable

Findings you can act on, not a PDF of maybes.

Every Baseline ends in proof. Each finding is validated by execution and handed back with the threat context an engineer needs to fix it and an auditor needs to trust it.

  • Validated, exploitable findings, proven by execution rather than flagged
  • A threat model in context: how your specific system can actually be attacked
  • Full attack-path context across services, identity, and infrastructure
  • Reproduction steps and a remediation diff for every finding
  • Retest criteria, audit-ready from the start

where it goes

One run today. A brain when you're ready.

A Baseline stands on its own: point-in-time proof, no platform to onboard. Keep Cipher pointed at your stack and the same engine compounds. Prior findings, the architecture decisions behind them, and the false leads all carry forward into a continuously improving security brain.
