Start with the pressure: sales, launch, abuse, agents, data, or guardrails

Turn red-team findings into controls engineering teams can ship and security teams can verify.

Deterministic controls, release gates, telemetry, and retest evidence. Defend hardens guardrails, evals, approval workflows, permissions, and release gates — and produces the retest criteria that close the red-to-blue loop.

Buyer questions

  • - What controls need to exist before launch?
  • - Are guardrails, evals, release gates, telemetry, and approval workflows meaningful enough?
  • - Can approval boundaries be bypassed?
  • - Do logs and telemetry support investigation and evidence?
  • - What must become Jira or Confluence work?
