Defence
We support European defence organisations in building cyber capability they own, operate and can take into contested environments.
The picture today.
European defence is rebuilding deep cyber capability at speed, against adversaries that have invested in it for two decades. The choices made now, on architecture, on suppliers, on talent, will define operational freedom for the next twenty years.
We work alongside armed forces, joint commands and defence agencies on the technical foundations of that capability: mission-system security, offensive and defensive tooling, and the assurance work that lets commanders trust both.
What organisations in this sector face.
- Mission systems with twenty-year lifecycles and uncertain supplier sovereignty
- Operational dependence on non-European cloud and identity providers
- Recruiting and retaining cleared cyber talent against private-sector salaries
- Translating intelligence on adversary TTPs into hardened C2, C4ISR and weapon platforms
- Integrating cyber with kinetic operations under realistic rules of engagement
Where we add weight.
Capability development
We co-develop offensive and defensive tooling with national capability owners, transferring ownership (code, documentation, training) at the end of every engagement.
Mission-system assurance
Adversary-grade assessments of C2, C4ISR and weapon platform software, with findings expressed in operational terms.
Architectural sovereignty
Independent review of supplier claims, dependency mapping, and migration plans to remove non-EU control points from critical systems.
Exercise & validation
Red-team operations against operational networks under realistic ROE, paired with purple-team uplift for the defending units.
What we typically bring to defence engagements.
Managed Detection & Response
One continuously-run defensive service that fuses SOC operations, SIEM, network detection, threat intelligence and EDR — operated end-to-end from the EU.
Specialized Engineering & Testing
Senior-operator engagements that either break things — continuous pentesting, red-team operations — or build the sovereign environments others can't deliver.
