Monitoring integration — your telemetry, our analyst layer.
HOW WE ENGAGE
Projects, retainers and briefings
Most clients begin with a threat briefing — a structured review of intelligence sources, detection posture and incident readiness. Fixed projects address specific gaps: LLM guardrail design, red-team exercises or assurance reporting cycles. Retainers provide ongoing SOC augmentation and intelligence synthesis.
We remain vendor-neutral. Our value is analyst judgment, detection logic and intelligence curation — not licence resale.
01 · THREAT INTELLIGENCE
Threat Intelligence & AI Risk Assessment
Raw threat feeds are not intelligence until someone explains what they mean for your organization. We ingest commercial feeds, open-source reporting and sector-specific bulletins, then synthesize them into briefing documents your executives and technical leads can actually use. Each assessment maps active campaigns to your attack surface, identifies control gaps and documents how AI systems in your environment may amplify or mitigate risk. We maintain source traceability so you know where every indicator originated and how confident we are in its relevance. Deliverables include a prioritized risk register, recommended detection additions and a quarterly refresh cadence for retainer clients. Typical fixed engagements run from C$6,500 to C$22,000 depending on scope and feed complexity.
02 · NEURAL DETECTION
Neural Threat Detection & Behavioural Analytics
Signature-based rules miss what they have never seen before. Our neural detection practice establishes behavioural baselines across identity, endpoint, network and cloud telemetry — then flags deviations that warrant analyst review. Models run continuously; escalations do not. Every flagged event enters a triage queue where a Threat Neural AI analyst applies context: change-management tickets, travel schedules, known third-party integrations and sector-specific threat patterns. False positives feed back into model tuning so the same noise does not recur. We integrate with major SIEM, EDR and XDR platforms rather than requiring migration. This discipline suits organizations drowning in alerts but starving for verified signal. Retainer pricing typically ranges from C$8,500 to C$19,000 per month.
03 · INCIDENT RESPONSE
Incident Response & SOC Augmentation
When an incident lands, you need people who already understand your environment — not a generic hotline reading from a script. Our Vancouver analysts augment your security operations centre with structured triage, containment guidance and stakeholder communication drafts. Retainer clients receive defined escalation paths and priority response windows. Ad-hoc support is available for organizations experiencing active incidents, scoped individually after an initial assessment. We document every action with timestamps suitable for regulatory notification timelines. Our role is advisory and operational within authorized scope — we do not perform unauthorized access, and we coordinate with your legal counsel when breach notification may be required. SOC augmentation retainers start around C$7,500 per month; incident response projects are quoted after scoping.
04 · ADVERSARIAL TESTING
Adversarial Testing & Red / Blue Team Support
Detection logic that has never been tested is optimism, not architecture. We conduct authorized adversarial simulations — phishing campaigns against consenting staff, controlled lateral movement exercises and purple-team workshops that stress both offensive tradecraft and defensive response. Every test requires written authorization defining scope, targets, timing and rules of engagement. We coordinate with your IT team to avoid unintended disruption and maintain detailed logs for post-exercise review. Blue-team support includes detection gap analysis, playbook refinement and tabletop exercises for executive stakeholders. We do not test against third parties, public infrastructure without ownership proof or systems outside agreed scope. Fixed adversarial testing projects typically range from C$9,500 to C$28,000.
05 · LLM SECURITY
LLM Application Security & Guardrails
Large language models introduce novel attack surfaces: prompt injection, training-data leakage, excessive agency and insufficient logging. We assess LLM applications processing sensitive or regulated data, then design guardrails appropriate to your risk tolerance — input validation, output filtering, role-based access, audit trails and human review gates for high-impact actions. Our analysts test prompt boundaries using authorized red-team techniques and document residual risks in language your board can follow. We align recommendations with emerging frameworks while remaining practical about what your engineering team can implement within current sprint capacity. This service complements rather than replaces secure software development practices. Assessments typically start around C$8,000; ongoing guardrail monitoring is available on retainer.
06 · ASSURANCE
Monitoring Integration & Assurance Reporting
Boards and regulators increasingly ask not whether you have security tools, but whether those tools cover what matters and whether someone is watching them. We audit monitoring coverage against your asset inventory and threat model, identify blind spots and produce assurance reports that connect telemetry to residual risk in plain language. Reports include coverage maps, open findings, remediation timelines and trend analysis across reporting periods. For organizations subject to financial, healthcare or critical-infrastructure oversight, we format deliverables to support audit conversations without replacing your compliance team's statutory responsibilities. Integration work connects disparate log sources into coherent dashboards your analysts can trust. Assurance reporting cycles typically run C$5,500 to C$15,000 per quarter depending on environment size.
