Our Offensive Security professionals are on a mission to make the world a safer place, one company at a time. We believe that our work to help our clients discover and remediate their unique security risks makes every one of us safer.

We're looking to grow our team of red team experts in Canada. Our expertise in the adversarial simulation space is in high demand. Our collaborative ties to our forensic and incident response team, detection engineering team, and threat intelligence team, alongside the recent implementation of the Intelligence-Led Cyber Resilience Testing framework in Canada and DORA regulations in the EU has resulted in a growing demand for red team engagements, assume-breach red team engagements, threat intelligence led penetration testing, and purple team engagements.
