Testimonials

“I worked with Greg to go through all my sites and apps and make sure they are safe. I love being a scriptkiddie hacking together and shipping fast but security is nothing to be fast about because you hold user's data and have to keep that safe. Having Greg pentest everything, audit my code and follow his recommendations helps me sleep a bit better at night.”

Pieter Levels

“When I was planning on making Keygen open source, getting a penetration test and security audit was a major prerequisite. I knew Greg was a great choice, with his deep understanding of Ruby and of Rails. Greg completed the security audit according to schedule, and with his help and recommendations, I was able to successfully patch the issues he found. When it comes to security, I highly recommend Greg and Spektr.”

Founder of Keygen

“Tens of thousands of students and many universities rely on our software each semester to provide course content, assessments and grades. It is critical that we provide a service that is secure and reliable to each stakeholder involved. For a small team without specific security expertise, we knew (and were strongly encouraged by our partners) we needed to get a reliable security audit and penetration test to make sure all of our systems were as secure as possible. Greg's expertise was evident from our first meeting. He meticulously audited our systems, identifying vulnerabilities with precision. His insightful recommendations were invaluable, allowing us to fortify our digital infrastructure effectively. Greg's thorough approach to security has not only enhanced our systems but also given me and all of our partners a peace of mind. For anyone seeking top-notch security solutions, I wholeheartedly recommend Greg and Spektr.”
