So Attackers
Can't.

Full-Spectrum Offensive Security

Every engagement is scoped to your threat model, staffed with operators who have done this in the real world — networks, applications, and AI systems — not just a lab.

01 — Network Pentest

External & Internal Network Penetration Testing

Full-scope testing of your perimeter and internal network. We enumerate, exploit, and escalate — then show you exactly how we got in and how to stop the next attacker.

NMAP Metasploit Cobalt Strike BloodHound
02 — Red Team

Adversary Simulation & Red Team Operations

Multi-week engagements simulating nation-state or advanced persistent threat actors. Test your detection, response, and containment capabilities under realistic attack conditions.

APT TTPs MITRE ATT&CK C2 Infra Living off the Land
03 — Web & API

Web Application & API Security Testing

Manual-first application testing covering OWASP Top 10, business logic flaws, authentication bypasses, and API-specific attack chains that scanners miss.

Burp Suite Pro OWASP GraphQL OAuth/OIDC
04 — Active Directory

Active Directory & Identity Attack Paths

Kerberoasting, AS-REP roasting, ACL abuse, DCSync, and beyond. We map every path to Domain Admin and show you how to sever them.

BloodHound Impacket Rubeus Mimikatz
05 — Social Eng.

Social Engineering & Phishing Campaigns

Targeted phishing, vishing, and pretexting operations to quantify human risk. Paired with awareness training recommendations to close the gap.

Spear Phishing Vishing Physical GoPhish
06 — Offensive AI

Offensive AI & LLM Security Testing

Adversarial attacks against AI systems: prompt injection, jailbreaking, model extraction, and data poisoning. We test LLM-integrated applications the same way an attacker would — systematically and without mercy.

Methodology

How We Work

A structured, intelligence-driven process that mirrors real attacker behavior — from initial scoping to executive debrief.

01

Scope & Threat Model

Define targets, rules of engagement, and the specific adversary persona we'll emulate.

02

Reconnaissance

OSINT, passive recon, attack surface mapping — build a complete picture before touching anything.

03

Exploitation

Gain access using real-world techniques. Avoid noisy tools. Operate like an attacker who wants to stay hidden.

04

Post-Exploitation

Lateral movement, privilege escalation, and persistence. Prove the full blast radius of each finding.

05

Report & Debrief

Clear, prioritized findings for technical and executive audiences. Remediation verified on request.

Manual. Always.
Every finding hand-verified by a human operator.
No Noise.
We only report what matters. Real impact.
Europe First.
Based in Estonia. GDPR-aligned. EU law governed.
Direct Access.
You talk to the operator running your engagement.

We've Been on Both Sides of the Wire.

Our team has operated in government, military intelligence, and private sector red teams. We bring that experience into every engagement — no theory, no guesswork.

Why Ape Stoic

Operators First. Always.

We're not a checkbox compliance shop. Every engagement is led by operators who have done real-world offensive work — in government, military, private sector, and AI contexts.

  • ✓

    No automated scanner reports

    Every finding is manually verified. No false positives padded into your report to look busy.

  • ✓

    Cleared & credentialed operators

    Operators with DoD clearances available for sensitive government and defense engagements.

  • ✓

    Custom tooling and C2 infrastructure

    We build and maintain our own offensive tools — not relying on public commodity kits your EDR already detects.

  • ✓

    Remediation validation included

    After you fix issues, we verify the fix — no extra charge. Patches that don't hold aren't remediated.

  • ✓

    Direct operator access

    You talk directly to the person running the engagement. No account managers, no relay race with your findings.
