Adversis is a cybersecurity consulting firm that helps growing SaaS companies close deals and achieve enterprise readiness and security maturity that withstands increasing buyer scrutiny.
The firm serves companies between $10M–$100M ARR who need evidence for their customers and whose early security and privacy programs are no longer sufficient for the enterprise customers they're pursuing.
Founded by offensive security practitioners from Capital One, Okta, Bishop Fox, and Symantec, Adversis provides assessments and operates as a retained security partner. The team has spent years inside enterprise environments mapping what actually leads to compromise, and brings that pattern recognition to client engagements — identifying where real exposure exists, what to prioritize, and what to skip.
Core services include:
Security engineering, operations, privacy advisory (vCISO) support for companies whose security team needs expert strategic direction, not just execution
Right-sized penetration testing with findings prioritized by realistic exploitability and business impact
Product security, including threat modeling and secure architecture guidance for platforms entering regulated verticals
Compliance readiness programs including SOC 2, HIPAA, and CMMC readiness, delivered alongside your GRC platform
The team has led vendor security evaluations as enterprise buyers and negotiated over $50M in enterprise contracts from the vendor side. This experience on both sides of the evaluation is what allows Adversis to speak from operational experience rather than frameworks.
The team created the Red Team Maturity Model used by Fortune 200 companies and holds certifications including OSCP, OSCE, and GXPN.
Adversis is typically engaged by CTOs, heads of security, or sales leaders at SaaS companies.

We needed an in-depth review of our systems for a security risk assessment and penetration test in a short timeframe.
SOLUTION
What was the scope of their involvement?
Adversis provided us with a security risk assessment, penetration test, attestation letter, and in-depth SRA report. They also provided detailed corporate governance documents to bring us up to speed. In addition, Adversis assisted us with a cybersecurity assessment from an insurance payor.

Our recent Adversis HIPAA security risk assessment found zero unaddressed controls across all required domains. Additionally, all vulnerabilities identified during external testing were fully remediated and confirmed resolved by March 2026.

Our Story
We started in offensive security (red teaming, penetration testing, and security operations) at organizations like Capital One, Okta, and Bishop Fox. We've seen what attackers actually exploit and what security programs look like from the inside. Adversis exists because SaaS companies scaling upmarket deserve advisors with that operational depth, not just audit checklists. We handle pen tests, security questionnaires, architecture reviews, and ongoing advisory so your team can focus on building.
What Sets Us Apart
Offensive security practitioners over generalists
Many security consultants come from compliance backgrounds. We come from breaking into complex environments. Our recommendations are grounded in what attackers actually do, which is why we can tell you what to skip with the same confidence we tell you what to fix.
Our team comes from security roles at organizations like Capital One, Okta, and Bishop Fox. Seeing how enterprise security teams evaluate vendors, what they prioritize and dismiss shapes every deliverable we produce. Your pen test report and attestation letter are built to hold up under scutiny.
SaaS-focused. Human-in-the-loop. Vendor agnostic.
Every engagement is a SaaS company navigating buyer expectations. We don't resell tools or earn referral fees. Every recommendation, finding, and deliverable has a senior practitioner's judgment behind it.
