Praetorian

At Praetorian, our mission is clear: prevent breaches before they happen by emulating real-world attackers. That’s the power of #ContinuousOffensiveSecurity.

BLE testing is a scavenger hunt: hcitool, bettercap, gatttool, and a throwaway Bleak script every time.

Caeruleus replaces the whole pile with one Go binary. Scan, enumerate, fuzz, and run structured BLE security assessments. Free + open source. 🔵

Can AI write a real kernel exploit? 🧠

Part 2 of FreeBSoD: we had Claude build two working FreeBSD jail escapes, defeating KASLR, stack canaries, and SMEP/SMAP.

What it nailed, and where it still needed a human 👇

🏛️ The walls look like corridors, not walls.

Knossos builds decoy cloud environments from your real infra, then turns every attacker move into usable intel.

Bridging the GAP is coming to DEF CON Training Las Vegas 2026. Hands-on embedded hardware hacking, take-home kit included.

July 4th sale is on. Code DCTLV26-250-select for $250 off.

You asked for decoys to kick attackers out fast. We built the opposite. 🪤

Knossos generates a full decoy cloud environment that keeps intruders burning time while every move becomes intelligence.

AMSI and ETW are built to watch the .NET runtime. So we took the runtime away. ⚒️

WasmForge compiles Rubeus and Seatbelt to WebAssembly and runs them outside the CLR completely. Open source as of today.

Adam Crosser pointed Claude Code at the FreeBSD kernel. Eight zero-days in days, including CVE-2026-3038 (RTSock stack overflow), patched a day after we reported it.

Part one is the methodology: CodeQL triage, a KASAN feedback loop, and doing it on a $100 plan.

From a 6-month capability build to a 1-week prototype.

Basic packers and string encryption have a short shelf-life against modern EDR. Advanced threat actors have moved to payload virtualization, a domain that historically takes 3-to-6 months of specialist work to build.

We did it in a week.

Centurion is our custom x86-64-inspired VM that runs a freestanding TLS stack and bind shell behind an interpretation layer, shrinking the native footprint to ~18 KB. The catalyst: an agentic workflow where we owned the architecture and pointed GCC and LLVM compiler test suites at the runtime, so autonomous agents could debug their own register allocation edge cases.

Adam Crosser wrote up the full engineering breakdown. Link in the comments.

Praetorian Guard now supports AI-enabled, fully autonomous, persistent attacks.

Meet Hannibal. Define a directive and it continuously tasks the compute fleet against specific targets or attack hypotheses. It runs iteratively, accumulates cross-iteration learning, and files risks based on demonstrated compromise.

Not a scan. Not human-in-the-loop. Autonomous.

"Hannibal ad portas." Hannibal is at the gates.

Sulla: our open source SMB secret scanner for finding credentials exposed across network shares.

Runs from any Linux box. Auto-discovers readable shares, scans with Titus, surfaces high-signal findings. Quick mode sweeps ~10,000 computer objects in as fast as 30 min.

Meet Unit-01, our Praetorian.

Continuous, autonomous offensive security modeled on history’s ultimate insiders. Unit-01 doesn't wait for annual pentests; he continuously maps every path into your environment just like a real attacker, reporting to you first.

The missing face is intentional. It means zero assumptions about how your system is "supposed" to work. He only sees what an attacker sees: doors, and which ones are unlocked.

Big additions to the offensive security team this week.

Taggart Solomon joins as Offensive Security Manager after 5 years of cyber operations with the U.S. Army, NSA, and USCYBERCOM.

Indivara Kolluru is spending his summer with us as an intern working with our offsec team, researching how AI systems fail before attackers figure it out.

Welcome, Taggart and Indivara. Drop them a congrats in the comments.
