AI Security · Advisory · Capability Development
We secure the AI systems you depend on, advise the leaders building on them, and help you develop the capability that your organization needs. We don't replace your people. We make them dramatically more capable.
What We Do
We secure what you build, help you decide what to build, and leave your team able to keep building without us.
We test the AI systems you ship and the ones you rely on. Prompt injection, data exfiltration, tool and agent abuse, the failure modes traditional security teams haven't met yet. We came from the offensive side first, so we find the paths before someone else does, and then we work with you to make sure that others can't.
The AI landscape moves faster than any roadmap. We help leaders cut through it: what to adopt, what to ignore, how to run sensitive workloads locally, where the real risk lives. Grounded guidance from people who build and break this technology daily.
We build the durable technologies that your organization keeps: AI-security workshops, hands-on training programs, internal playbooks, and the operational muscle to run them. You leave knowing how to do the work that your organization needs you to do. We work with you to design and build the capability you want.
Approach
Domain expertise and AI throughput. Neither works alone. We pair decades of real-world security operations in federal and private-sector program advisory with purpose-built AI tooling, so a small senior team moves faster and further than a room full of generalists. You cannot mass produce highly capable operators. We stay deliberately lean and deliberately ahead.
Where The Work Lives
The three lanes show up as concrete work. Click any area to see what's live.
Adversarial testing of models, applications, and agent systems. We attack it the way a real adversary would, then show your team how to close it.
Design and review of AI systems built to resist the new attack surface from day one. Secure by design, not bolted on after the breach.
Where AI fits, what to adopt, what to skip. A clear path through the noise instead of another vendor's roadmap.
Capable models running offline for sensitive and regulated work. Your data never leaves the room.
Hands-on AI-security curriculum. Real tools, real scenarios, real infrastructure. Your people leave able to do the work.
The media layer that makes expertise land: interactive experiences, visual systems, and publishing that people actually engage with.
How It Works
We work with a small number of teams at a time on select projects. Here is how an engagement runs, from first contact to a capability your team keeps.
$ zero-lab engage INTAKE We learn your systems, your risk, your goals. ASSESS We test, analyze, and find what matters. DELIVER Clear findings, real fixes, plain language. ENABLE Your team keeps the capability we built. STATUS accepting select engagements $
Why Us
zero-lab is a small concentration of highly capable people, thinking far ahead of problems today: decades across military, federal, and private sector red teams, now focused entirely on AI security.
You've put models or agents in front of users. You need to know what an adversary sees before they do.
Deciding what to adopt, what to avoid, and how to do it without betting the company on hype.
Your data can't go to a frontier API. You need capable AI that runs inside your walls.
Strong on traditional security, coming up to speed on the new attack surface fast.
Contact
If you're building on AI and want it secured by people who understand the security concepts that surround this technology, or you want guidance that isn't a vendor pitch, reach out. We take on a small number of engagements and give each one real attention.
