Advisory Services

We take a small number of advisory engagements a year. They tend to be short, specific, and useful.

For enterprises, investors, family offices, and governments

Cybersecurity strategy

Where you are actually exposed, what to fix first, and what to ignore. Strategy that survives contact with a budget, a board, and a real adversary.

AI and the attack surface

What genuinely changes when both attackers and defenders have capable models, and what is noise. Most of the current conversation is noise, but the devil hides in the detail.

Technical diligence

An operator's read on a security company, its category, and its team, before the check gets written.

Policy and regulation

Where disclosure law, liability, and AI rules are heading, and what that means for your exposure. We have worked on this in the United States and Australia, in public and in the room.

For startups

Positioning and narrative

Making deep technical work legible to buyers, investors, and press without hollowing it out.

Founder counsel

From someone who did it for thirteen years, including the parts nobody writes about.

Community credibility

The security community can tell when it is being marketed to. We can help you not do that.

Introductions

Selectively, to people we actually know, when it is a genuine fit.

How it works

Engagements are structured to fit the problem: a single-day intensive, a defined block of days, an hourly consultation, a monthly retainer, or a standing advisory seat. We will advise you early if we are not the right fit. We decline engagements often enough that our acceptance means something.
