Penetration Testing

Every engagement is scoped to your environment, executed by experienced practitioners, and documented with findings that security teams and executives can both act on.
Two
Zero Trust Architecture
Federal mandates have made Zero Trust a requirement, not a roadmap item. Vaultes helps DC organizations design and implement Zero Trust architectures grounded in NIST SP 800-207, accelerating compliance with OMB M-22-09 and reducing lateral movement risk across complex hybrid environments.

Application Security
Washington, DC’s agencies and contractors build and procure software that underpins national security. We bring application security expertise across the full SDLC, including threat modeling, secure code review, Static Application Security Testing/Dynamic Application Security Testing (SAST/DAST) tooling, and DevSecOps integration, so that security is never an afterthought.
