Next Security: Enhanced Cybersecurity through Offensive Measures
Kelvin Siu, Founder and CEO, Founder and CEONext Security, a cybersecurity consulting company stands at the forefront of this paradigm shift by championing offensive tactics such as in-depth vulnerability assessments, thorough penetration testing and comprehensive red team assessments. This suite of services systematically addresses and neutralizes potential breaches proactively, minimizing the window of potential cyberattacks.
Kelvin Siu, founder and CEO of Next Security, succinctly expresses the company’s core advantage, “Our promise to deliver top-tier offensive cybersecurity assessments more cost-effectively gives clients the flexibility to redirect their investments into other essential business domains without compromising on the integrity of their cybersecurity posture.”
What sets Next Security apart from other cybersecurity consulting firms is its integration of industry-recognized methodologies with state-of-the-art artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities. This synergy results in advanced, customized tools and applications to provide organizations with a detailed, evidence-based overview of vulnerabilities and associated risks. By automating the offensive cybersecurity assessment process, Next Security streamlines workflow, boosts accuracy and ensures results are delivered with exceptional speed and efficiency. The objective is simple—to empower organizations to improve their security posture significantly, protecting them against the burgeoning wave of cyber threats more efficiently, reliably and cost-effectively than other market options.
For specialized services like red team assessments and phishing simulations, Next Security offers PhishGenius—an innovative platform that evaluates the real-world cybersecurity awareness and defense postures of clients. PhishGenius distinguishes itself through its advanced functionalities, including the real-time creation of phishing login pages that mirror authentic ones to perfection, the ability to validate credentials instantaneously and flawless integration with multi-factor authentication systems.
The hallmark of PhishGenius lies in its advanced replication of sophisticated phishing attacks, akin to those deployed by real-world adversaries such as advanced persistent threat (APT) groups. Eschewing the pitfalls of other phishing simulation tools that often rely on inauthentic or dated web pages, PhishGenius is engineered to echo the intricate strategies and tactics used by actual cyber attackers. This method guarantees that the assessments extend past theoretical analysis, delivering practical simulations that accurately portray the ever-evolving threat landscape.
Partnering with Next Security enables organizations to focus on their core operations, secure in the knowledge that their cybersecurity concerns are being expertly managed. This confidence stems from Next Security’s elite team of consultants, each a seasoned veteran in offensive cybersecurity. These professionals have refined their expertise within prestigious consulting environments, including the Big Four, equipping them with a depth of knowledge and a broad skill set. Their qualifications are highlighted by an impressive array of over 20 cybersecurity certifications and accreditations, such as Offensive Security Certified Expert (OSCE), Certified Red Team Expert (CRTE) and Certified Red Team Operator (CRTO), showcasing their comprehensive understanding and proficiency in the field.
Drawing on this extensive expertise, Next Security was selected by a globally acclaimed luxury goods conglomerate, renowned for its exquisite jewelry and watches, for an advanced cybersecurity evaluation to strengthen its defenses. The assessment entailed a series of red team activities and realistic attack simulations against the client’s IT infrastructure, encompassing scenarios that ranged from external, unauthenticated threats to internal, authenticated ones. These exercises allowed for a comprehensive examination and fortification of their cybersecurity measures. Through the red team assessments conducted by Next Security, the client gained critical insights into its cybersecurity stance, unveiling potential vulnerabilities that might have facilitated unauthorized access and high-level breaches within its protected environment.
Next Security’s use of AI in offensive cybersecurity has attracted significant investment, securing seed funding from prestigious programs like HK Tech 300 from City University of Hong Kong and additional support from Hong Kong Science and Technology Parks Corporation (HKSTP). These affiliations not only provide financial backing but endorse Next Security’s role as a vanguard in the cybersecurity domain. Participation in the HKSTP incubation and global startup programs, including Hatch by DigitalOcean, AWS Activate and Google for Startups Cloud Program, underlines the company’s commitment to innovation and the value it offers in strengthening the cybersecurity infrastructure across industries.
