Penetration testing: Think like the attacker. Report like the auditor.

Autolycus runs penetration tests with custom attack harnesses and unrestricted AI models that run on our own hardware, never a third party. You get wider coverage, delivered faster, with every finding reported in an ISO/IEC 27001:2022-aligned format.

Our approach

The sword and the shield

Every engagement brings both sides of security together: we attack like a red team and report for the blue team who will defend.

Red team · The sword

Offensive testing

We test your systems the way a determined adversary would. Custom harnesses drive unrestricted AI models across the agreed scope, so we cover more ground in less time.

Our models run entirely on our own local hardware — nothing about your systems is ever sent to a commercial AI provider or frontline model.

Blue team · The shield

Defensive reporting

Findings are written up in an ISO/IEC 27001:2022-aligned format, so your security team can prioritise remediation and your auditors can see the evidence.

Every finding comes with a recommended remediation, and we follow up with retesting to confirm your fixes hold.

How an engagement runs

Scope. Test. Report.

  1. 01

    Scope

    We agree targets, rules of engagement and reporting requirements with your team before any testing starts.

  2. 02

    Test

    Harness-driven, AI-accelerated testing across the agreed scope for broad, fast coverage.

  3. 03

    Report

    An ISO/IEC 27001:2022-aligned report with prioritised findings, supporting evidence and remediation guidance.

The landscape

New vulnerabilities never stop
