ShadowSec Lab operations floor at night

Operations floor · Finsbury Square

Written authorization

Named signatory before any packet is sent.

Named operators

You know who is on the keyboard.

Safe-by-default

No DoS, no hack-back, kill switch on call.

Fix, then retest

The PDF is a midpoint, not the product.

Process

Five steps. No mystery. No midnight surprises.

  1. 01

    Scope

    A working session on objectives, assets, environments, and what ‘done’ looks like. You leave with a written proposal.

  2. 02

    Authorize

    Legal entity, Rules of Engagement, contacts, and a kill switch. No testing starts without a named signatory.

  3. 03

    Test

    Operators work the agreed window with a daily pulse if you want one. High-impact issues are raised as they land.

  4. 04

    Report

    An executive letter, a technical appendix, and a conversation. Findings are ranked by exploitability and business effect.

  5. 05

    Retest

    You fix; we verify. The engagement is not finished because a PDF went out.

Next step

Tell us what you need answered.

A 30-minute scoping call is enough to know whether a pentest, a cloud review, or a retainer is the right buy. We will say if it is not.
