Public and authenticated product surfaces, business logic, trust boundaries, and exposed services.
Drost Elite
Autonomous offensive capability. Human judgment at the gates.
Drost Elite is a managed, human-supervised autonomous offensive-security operation for organizations whose real attack surface spans products, people, delivery systems, cloud authority, and operational infrastructure.
MISSION
Prove the deepest reachable material impact
CONTROL
Written authorization and human gates
OUTPUT
Receipts, containment, remediation, closure
One connected operation
A finding is not the finish line. The attack path is.
Drost Elite does not stop because the next system belongs to another team or another assessment category. Where authorization permits, it follows demonstrated access into the systems that determine real organizational control.
Identity & authority
Sessions, administrative paths, service identities, delegated permissions, and access-control transitions.
Source & dependencies
Reachable source-control systems, build inputs, secrets exposure, and the dependencies that shape exploitability.
CI/CD & automation
Build systems, deployment workflows, automation services, and the authority they can exercise downstream.
Cloud control planes
Cloud identities, IAM relationships, workloads, management surfaces, and escalation paths.
Operational infrastructure
Nodes, signing systems, data planes, environments, and operational controls reached by the validated chain.
Operating model
Autonomy inside an explicit command structure.
Autonomous agents provide speed, breadth, and persistence. Human operators hold the mission, interpret consequential evidence, enforce authorization, and decide when the operation advances.
- 01
Authorize
Define the business objective, systems in scope, exclusions, rules of engagement, human approval gates, and stop conditions.
- 02
Map
Build an evidence-backed surface map across public applications, services, identities, and connected infrastructure.
- 03
Operate
Autonomous agents pursue promising attack paths while human operators supervise material decisions and adapt the campaign.
- 04
Prove
Separate observations from demonstrated impact. Preserve receipts, negative tests, unresolved coverage, and the complete attack-path narrative.
- 05
Close
Support containment, prioritized remediation, focused retesting, and an evidence-backed closure package.
What you receive
Evidence that supports action.
- Executive critical-risk briefing tied to material business impact
- Validated attack-path narrative across every crossed system boundary
- Proof-gated findings with bounded, reviewable evidence
- Immediate containment priorities for demonstrated compromise paths
- Remediation plan ordered by attack-chain leverage, not scanner count
- Focused retest and closure evidence for repaired paths
When Elite fits
For decisions with a real blast radius.
- Before a major launch, acquisition, financing, or institutional integration
- When conventional assessments keep returning disconnected vulnerability lists
- When a security leader needs to know whether one foothold can become organizational control
- After material change to identity, cloud, CI/CD, or production architecture
- When a board, insurer, customer, or regulator needs evidence of effective remediation
Control and confidentiality
Capability is useful only when authority is clear.
Written authorization
Every operation begins with explicit scope, exclusions, rules of engagement, and named decision-makers.
Consequential-action gates
Autonomy does not silently expand authority. Material steps follow the engagement's agreed human-control model.
Confidential evidence handling
Evidence is minimized to what proves the result and handled under the engagement's confidentiality requirements.
