How engagements run
§02 - Principal-led delivery

You work with the principal.
Not a pyramid.

Feisty Fox is deliberately boutique. The architect who scopes your engagement runs it, writes the findings and briefs your board. Nothing is passed to a junior team after the sale.

Engagement principal
Wolf von Holweg
Principal LinkedIn
  • One senior security architect owns the engagement - scoping through to debrief.
  • Official IRAP facilitator, so assessment evidence is built once and holds up.
  • 30+ years across Australian intelligence, defence, government and critical infrastructure.
  • Canberra-based and 100% onshore. No offshore delivery, no subcontractor chain.

§04 - How the surface compresses

From recon to ISM mitigation.

AloupaAI does the mapping at machine speed. A principal decides what is real. Select a stage to see the work.

Attacker-reachable surface100%

AloupaAI maps the surface first

Every reachable asset, identity, certificate and service in your external footprint is enumerated continuously - including the shadow IT an adversary would find first.

Continuous discovery
No agents or scan windows
Shadow asset detection

Net effect: 88% of attacker-reachable surface closed before an adversary acts.

Deployment & Data Sovereignty

AloupaAI - sovereign architecture
01 - Enclave & Hosting

100% Australian-hosted on IRAP-assessed PROTECTED infrastructure, or deployed air-gapped on-premises inside your network boundary.

02 - Zero Data Leakage

Single-tenant isolation. Client telemetry and attack-path graphs are never shared, retained post-engagement, or used to train external models.

03 - Human-Validated Output

Every machine-chained adversary path is manually verified by a cleared senior operator within 24 hours to eliminate false positives.

Hosting, isolation and validation terms available in the pre-engagement due-diligence pack.

Rapid response

Rapid Sovereign Incident & Assessment Readiness

Fly-away sovereign telemetry kits and pre-staged onshore operators ready for rapid deployment across Canberra, Sydney, Melbourne, and remote critical infrastructure sites.

Deployment footprint

Pre-staged operators

Onshore principals retained in Canberra, Sydney and Melbourne

Fly-away kits

Sovereign telemetry kits shipped to site, never dependent on client tooling

Remote sites

Deployment to regional and remote critical infrastructure locations

Test the thinking before you buy the work.

Every tool runs free in the browser - no account, no paywall. Only the formatted board report asks for a work email.
