What's inside this engagement
Phase by phase.
How a security assessment engagement runs, what happens in each phase and what you see. Exact scope, tier and timeline are fixed in your proposal and SOW.
01Scoping
Systems, sites, stakeholders and the question the assessment must answer.
You see · Your objectives and constraints.
02Discovery & evidence
Documents, configurations and interviews, plus technical testing where the service includes it.
You see · Access and time with key people.
03Analysis
Findings rated by risk to your business, not by a generic score.
You see · A prioritized view of your risk.
04Report & debrief
Executive summary, findings and a remediation roadmap, walked through with your team.
You see · The report and the debrief.
Commercials
From first call to final report.
- 01
Scoping call
A practitioner, not a salesperson, walks through targets, constraints and what a good outcome looks like for you.
- 02
Proposal & rules of engagement
A fixed-scope proposal with tier, price and deliverables. Rules of engagement, contacts and out-of-bounds systems are agreed in writing.
- 03
Sign, then start
MSA and SOW are signed electronically and the deposit is paid. Only then does testing begin.
- 04
Execution
Testing runs to the agreed plan. Critical findings are escalated as they are found; you don't wait for the report.
- 05
Report & debrief
An executive summary plus technical findings with evidence, reproduction steps and fixes, walked through with your team.
- 06
Retest
Where the tier includes it, we verify your fixes and reissue the report, so auditors and customers see the issues closed.
Timelines are set per engagement in the SOW.

Excessive Agency Moved to #3: What the 2026 OWASP LLM Top 10 and the Agent Control Standard Change For Your Program
The OWASP GenAI Security Project's 2026 list weighted 6,639 real incidents against expert consensus, and the largest movement on it was Excessive Agency climbing from #6 to #3. Alongside it shipped the Agent Control Standard v0.1, which defines agent governance through OpenTelemetry and OCSF tracing. The ranking is a lagging indicator finally catching up to what is actually breaking.

The Internet Is Mostly Not Human Anymore — And We're Rebuilding the Marketplace Around That
Cloudflare's latest data puts non-human traffic above 50% of the internet, with AI agent requests up 1,700% in a year. Commerce built for a human reading a page does not survive that. As a Cloudflare startups partner, we're building CISO Marketplace so an agent can hold delegated, bounded, auditable spending authority — MCP and API access, a credits wallet as the budget envelope, Better Auth and Stripe underneath. Here's the architecture, and what it implies for your own estate.

Black Hat USA 2026: An Autonomous System Found 14,090 Bugs, Breakout Time Fell Under 30 Minutes, and Patching Got Slower
The 29th Black Hat USA brought 100+ Briefings to Mandalay Bay August 1–6. The research that matters to security leaders wasn't the exotic hardware work — it was the data. Unit 42's NOVA confirmed 14,090 flaws across 3,915 projects, 99.4% previously unreported. Dataminr put breakout time under 30 minutes while median patch time slipped from 32 to 43 days. Here's the CISO read.
