"So, people hire you to break into their places, to make sure no one can break into their places?" Precisely. Sneakers (1992) captured our business model before we were born.

I just want to say thank you....thank you Thai Duong and Calif for consistently scaring the life out of me. This team is the most innovative penetration/security tester I have ever worked with. Over the past 5 years, they have taken 15 years off of my life with their very creative approaches to destroying my faith in any security control that exists....anywhere. Ever. If you want to know the truth, use Calif.

Shout out to Thai Duong and the team at Calif 🥷

I love a good pen test to learn new things about your infrastructure 😁

We just completed another great red team engagement with Calif - again outstanding work!

A good red team engagement is indistinguishable from art and Thai Duong and his team are true artists. If you need a good red team, don't hesitate and contact them:

We will talk more about our experience in a future blog post, stay tuned!

This is... accurate. Thai Duong and the Calif team kill it 10 times out of 10.
