What We Do

Release the Cracken. Defend what matters.

Cracken is the first Red-AI Copilot built for real offense, not an ordinary CNAPP or endpoint security. We arm defenders with nation-state grade attack logic at machine speed, under full human command. Not black boxes. No fluff.

Born on the hardest frontlines of cyber conflict -- Ukraine, US, EU -- Cracken is built by operators who know what it means to face adversaries that don't play fair. We are turning that battlefield DNA into the only agentic AI platform that simulates live, adaptative attacks across cloud, endpoint, and hybrid environments.

Why it matters:

⚡Human-in-the-Loop control: every action is transparent, auditable, and reversible. CISOs don't trust black-box AI. We give them speed and oversight.

⚡Accuracy over noise: no posture fluff, no false positives. Only validated, exploitable risk that matters.

⚡100% faster coverage than manual red teams.

⚡Undetected vulnerabilities caught before exploitation (proven in North America and Ukraine's critical infrastructure).

⚡Zero black-box risk with audit trails, rollbacks, and operator trust at the core.

⚡Regulatory ready for CISA, EU AI Act, and global oversight.

⚡Quantifiable adoption with seamless integration into CI/CD multi-cloud and hybrid environments.

Cracken is not another CNAPP, CIEM or compliance dashboard. Those show posture. We show truth. Attackers don't wait, neither should you.

👉Investors, customers, and security leaders: join us in weaponizing defense. Let's release the Cracken!
