Ransomware stopped early
EDR behaviour analytics caught a suspicious script before C2 traffic formed; affected host isolated in 90 seconds, ransomware payload never wrote to disk.

Want to code the future with us?
Phishing, ransomware, zero-days, identity theft — your attack surface grows daily. We build a 10-layer defence from perimeter to endpoint, identity to log analytics, monitored 24/7 from a SOC. When something happens, the IR team is on the wire in 15 minutes; you sit on the prevention side, not the waiting side.
There is no such thing as 100% security. But closing every known door, watching every entry point, and bringing response time down to 15 minutes — that is possible. That is exactly our job.

Why you become a target
43% of attackers target SMBs intentionally — defence layers are thin, monitoring is absent, employee awareness is low. And ransom payment time is usually faster than enterprise: operations downtime is direct revenue loss. The 6 items below are the most common 6 gaps we find in SMBs.
Single-factor passwords are no longer security. Microsoft's own report: 99.9% of account attacks would be blocked with MFA on. Yet in many SMBs, email, ERP, finance panels, VPN open with one password.
admin/admin on the router, default password on the NAS, factory settings on cameras, empty password on IoT. Shodan scans for these in 5 minutes. The attacker doesn't come through the door — through the curtain.
Old Windows Server, expired antivirus licence, switch firmware 4 years stale, Exchange unpatched. CVE lists are public; the attacker walks in via a public exploit.
Mean dwell time before detection: 207 days. Because nobody collects logs, nobody set alerts. The attacker scans for 6 months then drops ransomware — by the time you notice it is late.
Phishing email opened, macro executed, exe downloaded. One hour of training a year isn't enough; monthly simulation + 5-minute micro-modules change culture.
Ransom note on screen — who do you call now? Which system is isolated first? Where do you restore from? Not learned mid-incident; the runbook must be ready.
Threat visibility
Our SIEM panel pulls every system log into one place — firewall, endpoint, IDS, mail gateway, AD, cloud services. AI prioritises anomalies, raises real events to SOC analysts, filters noise. If an attacker enters your environment, alarm fires within 5-10 minutes; by the time you hear about it, the asset is already isolated.
Cyber Kill-Chain — where we block
We layer at all 7 stages — no matter where the attack sits, it gets caught.

Who it's for
01
Card data, customer data, fraud — without PCI-DSS, Visa/Mastercard fines + acquiring halts.
02
Patient records are high-value; KVKK/GDPR breach + reputational damage + medical-device ransomware are real threats.
03
BDDK regulation, SWIFT security, anti-fraud — zero margin for error, 24/7 supervision.
04
Client confidentiality is the bar's foundation; one leak ends practice, insurance may not cover.
05
Multi-tenant isolation, SOC2, vendor security reviews — no enterprise customer, no growth.
06
PLC, SCADA, MES systems are old + internet-connected. One attack stops production for hours.
07
Citizen data + critical infrastructure; threat actor may be nation-state — defence must match.
08
Student data + research funding; universities are now top targets for ransomware.
10-layer defence
"We have antivirus, we are safe" was wrong even in 2010. Today defence requires parallel layers across network, identity, endpoint, email, application, data, backup and people. We run all 10 layers below as one team, one dashboard, one SLA.
01
Continuous scanning, CVE matching, patch prioritisation, live asset inventory.
02
Log ingestion, correlation, anomaly detection, 24/7 analyst supervision, case tracking.
03
Endpoint behaviour analytics, automated isolation, threat hunting, rollback.
04
NGFW, network segmentation, zero-trust micro-segmentation, geo-filtering.
05
IdP integration, SSO, MFA, conditional access, privileged access management.
06
Anti-phishing, anti-spoofing, anti-BEC, attachment sandbox, URL rewrite.
07
OWASP Top10 + bot mitigation + DDoS, virtual patching, custom rules.
08
Sensitive-data classification, email + USB + cloud control, encryption enforcement.
09
Immutable + air-gapped backups, restore tests, RTO/RPO measurement, ransomware-proof.
10
Scenario-based playbooks, escalation tree, legal / comms flow, drills.
Process
Current-state scan against NIST CSF + CIS Controls, asset inventory, threat model, top-20 risk list.
Risk × impact matrix; quick wins vs long-haul projects, budget + ROI map, 90-day plan.
EDR, SIEM, MFA, WAF, email gateway — best-fit choice for sector + scale, silent rollout.
24/7 watch, alert prioritisation, case triage, escalation, customer status updates.
Phishing campaign, red-team exercise, ransomware drill, tabletop, staff training.
Monthly reporting, KPI tracking (MTTD/MTTR), new threat intel, rule updates.
