FROM THE FIELD

What clients tell us

The report named the exploit path, the precondition and the exact fix. Our developers could reproduce each finding without asking a single follow-up question.

Head of Platform EngineeringSwiss insurer, Tier 1

Scoping took one call and produced a target list we both signed. Nothing in the engagement drifted from it, and the retest told us precisely what was closed and what was not.

02 / PACKAGES

Clear packages. Senior delivery.

Fixed-scope starting points for security, regulated AI adoption, and measurable automation. Choose a package when your scope fits one system or one agent; choose the day rate when it does not. Both are confirmed in writing before work starts.

For organizations of different sizes and industries. Robert’s public CV documents Tier-1 banks, insurers and automotive clients, FINMA, DORA and TLPT environments: 100+ on-site engagements across 11 countries. References under NDA on request.

AUTOMATION WITH CONTROL

Secure AI Agent Value Sprint

CHF 24’800

12 working days

Request package

Flexible engagements: CHF 2’200 per working day. Longer, clearly scoped remote projects: CHF 2’000–2’100. Short-notice OT, red-team, and high-security engagements: CHF 2’400–2’600, subject to scope. Package prices are fixed-scope equivalents at CHF 1’850–2’100 per working day; the day rate applies when the scope cannot be fixed in advance.

All package prices and day rates exclude applicable VAT and pre-approved travel and third-party costs, unless expressly included in the order form. Fixed-price packages apply within their stated scope. Scope, authorization, and start date are confirmed in writing before work begins. Regulatory mapping is technical, not legal advice. Savings and compliance outcomes are not guaranteed.

03 / Approach

Senior hands-on work, from scope to hardening.

A clear process before, during, and after the technical work. You always know what is in scope, what happens next, and which artifact you receive. Phases and deliverables depend on the selected package and written scope. Assessments recommend and verify client fixes; hands-on remediation or pilot implementation is included only when expressly scoped.

  1. 01

    Scope and authorize

    Clarify objectives, systems, data classification, constraints, and the result your team needs. A short confidential scoping call becomes a written target list, success criteria, and fixed or separately agreed scope. Before testing, the system owner then approves targets, roles, timing, evidence handling, and stop conditions.

    Deliverables
    • Written scope, target inventory, and success criteria
    • Rules of engagement, authorization, and escalation contacts

    Your responsibility Name a technical contact, confirm ownership, and provide the agreed accounts, roles, and environment access. No secrets or sensitive exploit details in the first enquiry.

  2. 02

    Execute and explain

    Test manually, research, or build hands-on, limited to the agreed scope with short checkpoints. AI-assisted work is verified by Robert before it becomes evidence. Findings and design decisions are then explained in business and technical terms, each with preconditions, reproducible evidence, impact, root cause, and a prioritized fix—without inflated severity.

    Deliverables
    • Reproducible evidence log or working prototype
    • Executive summary, prioritized remediation backlog, and debrief

    Your responsibility Answer technical questions, flag operational constraints early, and bring the people who can assess impact and implement fixes.

  3. 03

    Harden and hand over

    Review remediation and control changes together, then repeat the relevant test or evaluation. Results distinguish fixed, partially fixed, and open items, including residual risk. Finish with an operating guide, knowledge transfer, and next-step decisions; ongoing support is a separate, explicit scope.

    Deliverables
    • Focused retest result and updated controls
    • Report, operating guidance, and handover session

    Your responsibility Apply agreed fixes, provide the updated build or configuration, and confirm owners for the remaining actions.

One direct technical contact throughout. No black box, no junior handoff, and no sensitive details in the initial form.

Yes. Safematix combines offensive security and ethical hacking with model, agent, MCP, and inference expertise.

What happens after an enquiry?

I reply personally, usually within one business day (Mon–Fri, CET), to arrange a confidential scoping conversation. Do not send secrets or sensitive exploit details through the initial form.

07 / Contact

Bring the difficult problem.

Tell me what you need to test, secure, or build. No sensitive details at this stage.

20–5000 characters. A clear, non-sensitive outline is enough.

Do not include passwords, secrets, personal data about others, or sensitive exploit details.
