Offensive Security
Penetration testing, controlled adversarial assessment and vulnerability validation.
Offensive Security & Cybersecurity
YOUR DEFENSES, OUR TARGET.
Hackers by instinct.
Engineers by discipline.
Professionals by standard.
We are The Unsheathed.
If it runs on electricity and connects to the internet, it can be hacked. Better by us than by others.

Capabilities
We attack Before they do, ......... and Better.
Security assessment is about understanding how a system actually behaves under adversarial conditions, not how it is assumed to behave.
Application Security
Web applications, APIs, authentication, authorization and application logic.
Network Security
External attack surfaces, internal infrastructure, network architecture and security assessment.
IoT & Embedded Security
Connected devices, firmware, hardware interfaces and communication protocols.
Security Architecture & Assessment
Threat modeling, architecture reviews, security design evaluation and structured risk analysis.
Defensive Security
System hardening, defensive controls and security improvements designed to reduce exposure and withstand attacks.
Cloud Security
Cloud infrastructure, configuration reviews, identity permissions and exposed services.
Identity & Access Security
Authentication, authorization, identity infrastructure, privilege management and access control.
Incident Response
Incident investigation, immediate action, attack containment, forensic analysis and recovery support.
Engagements
Choose how you work with us.
Packaged engagements, from a single penetration test to testing every month.
One-Time Penetration Test
A single, scoped test of one system, with evidence and remediation guidance.
Test & Harden
A penetration test followed by defensive work to close what we find.
Quarterly Assurance
Four tests a year, keeping pace with how your systems change.
Continuous Test & Defend
Twelve tests a year, paired with ongoing defensive hardening.
Methodology
Methodical by design.
We establish the scope. We challenge the defenses. We expose the weaknesses. We strengthen what matters.
01
Scope
Objectives, assets, authorization and rules of engagement are agreed before any
technical work begins.
02
Reconnaissance
Understand the target and identify the attack surface as it exists at that
moment.
03
Enumeration
Map technologies, services, interfaces and trust boundaries.
04
Assessment
Test security assumptions using our controlled offensive techniques.
05
Validation
Confirm vulnerabilities and determine meaningful, real-world impact.
06
Reporting
Technical evidence, risk assessment, business impact and remediation
guidance.
07
Remediation
Address identified weaknesses, protect what is exposed and strengthen the affected
defenses.
Reporting Philosophy
Every finding should answer three questions.
01
What is vulnerable?
02
Why does it matter?
03
How can it be demonstrated and addressed?
Our findings are supported by evidence and technical analysis, with clear impact and defined security outcomes. In remediation, we can take responsibility for strengthening the affected defenses. Where the engagement is limited to assessment, we document the weakness and its impact without disclosing detailed defensive implementation beyond the agreed scope.
About
A defined standard, applied without compromise.
The Unsheathed is a cybersecurity firm focused on offensive security. Our work is built around defined methodology, technical evidence and demonstrable security outcomes.
Objectivity
Security assessment should be grounded in evidence, not assumptions or organizational incentives.
Discipline
Testing is conducted according to defined scope and methodology, not improvisation.
Evidence
Claims should be supported by technical evidence, not assertion.
Discretion
Client information and sensitive technical detail are handled carefully, throughout and after an engagement.
