Innovate in AI attack techniques by combining cutting-edge academic research with proven offensive security methods to establish new Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures, and operationalize emerging research to keep assessments aligned with the state of the art. Build and scale security tooling using an automation-first philosophy, driving initiatives to shift security testing left by sharing purpose-built tools with AI security stakeholders across Engineering, Research, and Ethics.
