WHO WE ARE

What do we know about the adversary? What can we know? As an industry, what are we seeking to learn? Are we really taking the steps to understand the attacker? Do we really seek to tear apart their craft and truly breakdown the means, the motive and the indispensable talent required to commit a critical intrusion? Shadowscape wasn't founded because we invented Threat Intelligence. It was founded because there is a crucial lack of meaningful analysis. Shadowscape was founded by intelligence experts that apply this analysis to the cyber threat, and let that intelligence guide our operations. Historically, there's been a lack of scrutiny of the craft of our cyber foes, but not anymore.

 

The variables are all there for us to discover, as are the behaviors that give rise to malicious cyber activity. As long as we're looking for them. Our team doesn't just seek to learn where they've been, we seek to learn where they are at this moment and where they're going to be. Shadowscape is different not because of what we do, but because of how we do it. We seek to follow the adversary, to understand them, to study their every move and finally... predict where they'll strike. We seek to directly analyze and characterize the unique risks posed to our clients. We directly posture the network defenses of our clients to be the virtual antithesis of our foes' modus operandi.

​

Shadowscape was founded in Boise, Idaho on the premise that intelligence has the power to guide decision making by more than just simply ingesting data. We are an intelligence driven cybersecurity analytics company. We dive deep within the threat landscape to scrutinize the cyber adversary's tactics, techniques and procedures in order to gain a comprehensive understanding of their methods of attack. This knowledge allows us to employ a threat based approach to assessing our client's network defenses in order to determine likely vectors of cyber attack and provide ongoing monitoring for adversary behavior and recommendations for mitigation.

Let us train or provide you with our unique brand of threat intelligence today.
