Your AI never stops
looking for the gap.
Your AI inventories every system, checks each version against known exploited vulnerabilities, and ranks what to patch first. A person approves every change.
The cheapest breach is the one caught upstream.
$4.99M
is the global average cost of a data breach, a record high
What we do
Six disciplines. One job: keep you out of the news.
26%.
of critical vulnerabilities on the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities list were fully remediated by organisations in 2025, down from 38% the year before
What your AI does about it:
It inventories every system, checks each version against known exploited vulnerabilities, and ranks what to patch first for a person to approve.
days
241 days.is the mean time organisations took to identify and contain a breach
What your AI does about it:
It keeps watching every system and flags the gaps an attacker would use, so a person can fix them before a breach starts.
Imagine it. Here it is.
How AI finds and ranks vulnerabilities before attackers do
Watch it scan a made-up company, Mokoena Logistics: inventory the systems, check every version against known exploited vulnerabilities, rank what to patch first. Same run we'd do on yours. You approve every change.
What we protect you against
The cyberattacks hitting South African businesses right now
What we see in the wild every week.
Phishing & Social Engineering
One click can hand over a password or a wire transfer. We test whether your team falls for it and train them not to.
Ransomware
Downtime and a ransom demand, sometimes both. We test your defences and your backup recovery before it happens for real.
Supply Chain Attacks
One compromised vendor exposes every client they serve. Your security is only as strong as your weakest supplier.
Insider Threats
Ex-employees with active access, contractors who never got removed. We audit access controls and monitor for unusual internal behaviour.
Web Application Attacks
SQLi, XSS, auth bypass, API abuse. POPIA fines run up to R10M for a data leak. We find the holes first.
Network Intrusion
The longer an intrusion goes unnoticed, the more it costs to clean up. We simulate a full attack chain from initial access to domain compromise.
What we find
Findings like these turn up in almost every assessment.
No client names. Patterns we find constantly, not one-off stories.
Domain admin from one phishing email
CriticalA cloned login page harvested a junior employee's credentials. Those opened an internal file share with plaintext service-account passwords, one of them with domain-admin rights. Full compromise from a single click.
Database exposed to the internet
CriticalA cloud database with default credentials and no firewall, holding customer records in plain sight. Nobody knew it was reachable until we found it.
Backup that doesn't work
HighBackup running nightly. Green lights on the dashboard. Nobody had tested a restore. Tested on engagement: the backups were corrupt. Ransomware would have erased the company while they believed they were protected.
VPN with no MFA
HighRemote VPN accepting a username and password only. No MFA. Credential-stuffing would have unlocked the whole network. Fixed in one afternoon.
How an engagement runs
Five stages. From scope to fix.
Scope
Define what gets tested. Sign rules of engagement. Agree targets, timelines, boundaries. Every move spelled out up front.
Discover
Map your attack surface. Automated scanning plus manual recon. We find what scanners miss because we think like attackers.
Test
Controlled exploitation. Real threat-actor techniques. Chain vulns, escalate privileges, prove business impact.
Report
Findings ranked by real business impact. What we found, how we exploited it, what an attacker could do, how to fix it.
Fix
Implementation support included. We help remediate, verify fixes, retest to confirm. Findings get resolved.
The arsenal
What we open in anger.
Now it's real.
Four things stay true, whatever we build for you.
Your hardware or ours
On your server, on ours, or on a machine in your office running an open model. Your call.
A person approves what matters
Payments, deletions and anything going to a client wait for a yes from you or someone you choose.
Every action logged
You can see what it read, what it did and why, for every task.
Built with POPIA in mind
We set it up the way we set up any system that handles personal information, with the same care our compliance work gets.
Cybersecurity questions people ask
How does an AI actually run a security scan?
It inventories every system you run, checks each version against the CISA catalogue of known exploited vulnerabilities, and ranks what to patch first. A person reviews the list. Nothing gets patched or changed without your say-so.
How much does penetration testing cost in South Africa?
Depends on scope: number of systems, whether it's network, web app or social engineering, and how deep you want the testing. We quote after a free scoping call, fixed price per phase.
Is this a replacement for a SOC?
It's what makes a SOC affordable. Wazuh (open source, self-hosted) does the detection; the AI reads the alerts, filters the noise, and only pages a person for what actually matters.
Do you cover POPIA-specific security requirements?
Yes. Firewalls, access control, encryption, logging and vulnerability management, the technical controls a POPIA or ISO 27001 audit checks. See our compliance service for the paperwork side.
What happens if you find something critical mid-test?
We stop and tell you immediately, before the report is even finished. Rules of engagement are signed up front so everyone knows what triggers that call.
Prefer to start on your own? We also build Qontrl, a self-serve platform that maps what an attacker, bot or AI can already see on any domain.
Stop hoping it is secure.
