How long does a security audit take?

Most audits are completed within 1-2 weeks, depending on the size and complexity of your codebase.

What tech stacks do you support?

We audit applications built with JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, Go, Ruby, PHP, and more. Whether you're using React, Next.js, Django, Rails, or any other framework—we've got you covered.

Is my code kept confidential?

Absolutely. We sign NDAs, use encrypted connections, and delete all access after the audit. Your code never leaves your repository—we only need read access.

How is this different from automated scanning?

Automated scanners catch common issues but miss business logic flaws, complex auth bypasses, and context-specific vulnerabilities. Our manual audits think like attackers and understand your unique application.

How do you prevent Zero-Day?

Implement defense in depth (don't rely on any single control) Use behavior-based detection, not just signature-based Keep systems updated to minimize attack surface Monitor for anomalous behavior Have an incident response plan ready Consider bug bounty programs to find vulnerabilities first

What are examples of Zero-Day?

Log4Shell was a zero-day before December 2021. Nation-state actors hoarding zero-days for cyber operations. Zero-day brokers paying millions for iOS/Android exploits

What is Zero-Day?

1 min read Updated 2026-02-05

A vulnerability that is unknown to the software vendor and has no available patch. Zero-day exploits are particularly dangerous because there's no defense against them initially.

Understanding Zero-Day

Zero-day vulnerabilities are unknown to the vendor, meaning there's been "zero days" to fix them. They're highly valuable on black markets and to nation-states. Defense requires layered security, behavior monitoring, and rapid response capabilities when discovered.

Examples

Log4Shell was a zero-day before December 2021
Nation-state actors hoarding zero-days for cyber operations
Zero-day brokers paying millions for iOS/Android exploits

How to Prevent

Implement defense in depth (don't rely on any single control)
Use behavior-based detection, not just signature-based
Keep systems updated to minimize attack surface
Monitor for anomalous behavior
Have an incident response plan ready
Consider bug bounty programs to find vulnerabilities first

CVE

Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures. A standardized identifier for known security vulnerabilities. Each CVE has a unique ID (e.g., CVE-2021-44228 for Log4Shell).

Vulnerability

A weakness in a system that can be exploited by an attacker to perform unauthorized actions. Vulnerabilities are often rated by severity using CVSS scores.
