Services

Organized around how systems really fail.

The hardest security problems cross code, infrastructure, operations, people, and physical boundaries. The services we bring to a given engagement depend on what the system or situation demands.

Security Research

We dig into the assumptions, dependencies, and unexpected behaviors that can put entire systems at risk. Through original research and coordinated disclosure, we identify vulnerabilities before they become incidents and help make the systems others depend on stronger and more resilient.

Software Engineering

Understanding how systems fail starts with understanding how they’re built. We design, build, and ship the tooling, services, and core components that critical systems depend on, bringing the same depth to writing software that we bring to breaking it — and grounding our security work in the practical realities of engineering.

Physical Security

The people and physical conditions that surround critical systems can be just as consequential as the code or software itself. Our physical security work addresses these dependencies as part of the broader security model, from facilities and access to the real-world conditions our clients work within.

Infrastructure Security

Critical systems depend on infrastructure that must be secure, reliable, and resilient under pressure. We design, secure, and operate infrastructure with the same depth we bring to the systems running on top of it. We operate infrastructure across 12+ networks, giving our team direct experience with the operational realities of systems that can’t afford to go offline.

Security Engineering

Embedding directly with partner teams, our engineers work alongside the people designing and building consequential systems. This long-term, sustained involvement gives us the context to identify risks proactively, strengthen security throughout the development cycle, and address systemic risks rather than just individual findings.

Incident Response

When something goes wrong, having a deep understanding of the system is crucial. We help teams prepare for their worst day, respond quickly when it comes, and analyze the conditions that allowed an incident to happen in the first place.

“Asymmetric Research has been instrumental in building our security program from zero to what it is today. They have an intense hunger to understand our business, diving deep into our operations, technology, and goals to get the full context of what we’re building.”
