CAPABILITIES

Comprehensive Penetration Testing

We conduct deep manual audits with zero automated-report fluff. Every finding comes with verified proof-of-concept and clear remediation guidance.

Web Application & API Pentesting

Thorough evaluation of single-page apps (React/Vue/Angular), microservices, GraphQL, REST APIs, business logic flaws, IDOR, authentication bypasses, and complex injection vectors.

  • OWASP Top 10 & Business Logic Auditing
  • OAuth2 / JWT / RBAC Vulnerability Hunting
  • API Schema Deconstruction & Reverse Engineering

Cloud Infrastructure & Container Security

In-depth security posture assessment for AWS, GCP, Azure, and Kubernetes. We uncover IAM privilege escalations, misconfigured S3/storage buckets, metadata abuse, and container escape chains.

  • Cloud Architecture & IAM Escalation Mapping
  • Kubernetes Pod Escapes & Cluster Hardening
  • CI/CD Pipeline & Supply Chain Audits

Red Teaming & Adversary Simulation

Simulating advanced threat actors against your organization: external perimeter intrusion, phishing & credential harvesting, Active Directory domain dominance, and blue team detection testing.

  • Active Directory Domain Escalation & Lateral Movement
  • EDR & Antivirus Evasion Tactics
  • Objective-Based Data Exfiltration Simulations

AI & LLM Agent Security Assessments

Evaluating proprietary AI systems, autonomous agents, and RAG pipelines for indirect prompt injection, sensitive data leakage, guardrail bypasses, and agent tool-calling compromise.

  • Multi-turn Jailbreak & System Prompt Extraction
  • Tool & Function Calling Parameter Tampering
  • RAG Poisoning & Vector Database Extraction

OUR PROCESS

Strict Quality & Evidence-Driven Methodology

We follow NIST SP 800-115 and OWASP Testing Guides with a dedicated focus on reproducible evidence and zero disruption to production systems.

01

Scoping & Rules of Engagement

Establish clear boundaries, in-scope domains/CIDRs, testing windows, notification channels, and emergency escalation contacts.

02

Deep Recon & Asset Graphing

Enumerate APIs, subdomains, legacy endpoints, hidden parameters, and cloud assets to construct an exhaustive digital attack surface.

03

Manual Exploitation & PoC Verification

Perform deep manual testing to prove exploitability without risking data loss or system downtime. Every claim has verified traffic logs.

04

Actionable Report & Free Retesting

Receive an executive summary alongside developer-ready technical remediation steps. We offer a 60-day complimentary retest period.

OUR ORIGIN & EXPANSION (2023 – 2026)

We Didn’t Start in a Boardroom. We Started in a War Room.

In early 2023, LQK Security was founded by a tight-knit strike team of 5 offensive security researchers who shared a dedication to deep technical analysis and practical vulnerability research. We were driven by a blunt reality: modern enterprises were pouring fortunes into automated compliance scanners that produced hundreds of pages of noise, while completely missing the single multi-tenant logic flaw or silent cloud privilege escalation that could dismantle their business in minutes.

We built LQK Security on a simple principle: Zero automated report fluff. Zero false positives. 100% verified manual exploit chains.

Over 3 years of relentless engagements for fintechs, cloud platforms, and enterprise defense teams, our bootstrapped startup has scaled from that original 5-person war room into a formidable force of over 25 full-time certified operators. We don't employ salespeople or account middlemen—every engagement is driven directly by seasoned practitioners across 4 specialized practice units:

Unit 01

Web Application & API Security

7 dedicated specialists (OSWE, BSCP) focusing on modern SPA frameworks, GraphQL, microservices, OAuth2 flows, and high-impact business logic flaws.

Unit 02

Cloud Infrastructure & Containers

6 cloud security engineers auditing multi-account AWS, GCP, Azure architectures, Kubernetes pod escapes, CI/CD pipelines, and IAM privilege escalations.

Unit 03

Adversary Simulation & Red Teaming

7 certified red teamers (CRTO, OSEP, OSCP) simulating sophisticated threat actors, Active Directory domain compromise, EDR evasion, and covert lateral movement.

Unit 04

AI & Autonomous Agent Security Lab

5 researchers pioneering evaluations for enterprise LLMs, multi-agent Planner-Worker pipelines, indirect prompt injections, and 0-day vulnerability disclosures.
