Why ByteDefender

Security firm. Training academy. Research lab. One team.

Most firms sell penetration tests. ByteDefender was founded by a cybersecurity researcher, penetration tester, and educator to do more: we protect organizations, advise their leadership, train their people, and publish the research that moves the field forward.

  • Practitioner-led: every engagement is run by experienced offensive security specialists.
  • Research-informed: our testing methodology evolves with our own published research.
  • Knowledge transfer built in: we leave your team stronger than we found it.
