Our vision: making your day-to-day work easier

Security specialists thrive when attacking (or defending) systems. Everything else (e.g. reporting, project planing, etc.) is overhead.

A centralized vulnerability database, a way for the team to share information, a automated reporting tool... these systems are a must for every security group that wants to stay competitive (or be cost-effective).

We can help you in a few ways:

  • Collaborate efficiently and share information.
  • Be consistent across engagements, don't forget anything, avoid surprises.
  • No headaches. Our solutions work out-of-the-box, no installation needed.
  • Great support. Your pain is our pain. We're here to help and to give you piece of mind.

Security Roots vs in-house development

Q: Why should we use your solutions if we have an in-house geek that will create something from scratch for free?

A: Don't get us wrong, we love geeks. We love to code and create easy-to-use tools, it is our core business.

  • In-house != free

    You have to allocate the time to build, maintain and update your in-house solutions.

  • This approach does not scale

    Your revenue comes from your client work not from spending time and resources working on your back-end systems.

  • This approach is risky

    What happens when your in-house geek leaves the company? Can someone fix / improve the old system or are you back to square one?

With our solutions

  • Hit the ground running with a tool that works. Today.
  • You are fully supported. You get access to feature updates and patches.
  • You can always access your data (i.e. no vendor lock-in). All our tools provide export interfaces and APIs.

The in-house development cycle of doom:

  1. A requirement for a new back-end tool is identified
  2. An in-house geek is nominated for the task and knocks something together.
  3. A first version of the tool is deployed and people get on with their business.
  4. Time passes, tweaks are required, suggestions are made, but something else always has priority on the creator's agenda.
  5. Maybe after a few months, management decides to invest a few days from the creator's time to work on a new version.

This process is unlikely to yield optimum results.
