Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)


Penchuk Cyber - FAQ


1. Where is Penchuk Cyber based, and what regions do you serve?
Answer:
We are an Israeli‑founded cybersecurity firm with an international team operating across North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia‑Pacific. Our global footprint lets us deliver 24/7 support and on‑site services wherever your operations are located.


2. What makes Penchuk Cyber different from other cybersecurity companies?
Answer:
Three pillars set us apart:
Military‑grade talent. Our experts bring elite Israeli Defense Forces cyber‑ops experience to civilian networks.
Offensive mindset. Red Team, DDoS simulations, and Purple Teaming are core—not side—services, so every recommendation is attacker‑informed.
AI‑era security. We specialize in safeguarding organizations that use generative‑AI and machine‑learning tools, closing gaps traditional controls miss.

3. Which cybersecurity services do you provide?
Answer:
We cover the full offensive‑to‑defensive spectrum:
Red Team & Adversary Simulation
DDoS Stress Testing and Mitigation Planning
Purple Team Exercises (collaborative attack‑defense drills)
Secure SDLC & DevSecOps reviews
AI/ML Threat Modeling and Governance
Incident Response Readiness & Table‑top Exercises
Continuous Vulnerability Management and Pen Testing

4. What is Red Teaming, and how does Penchuk Cyber execute it?
Answer:
Red Teaming is a realistic, multi‑vector attack simulation against your live environment. Our operators emulate nation‑state tactics—social engineering, network intrusion, and post‑exploitation—to uncover hidden weaknesses. Each engagement ends with a detailed remediation roadmap and executive‑level briefing.

5. How do your DDoS simulation services work?
Answer:
We replicate large‑scale volumetric and protocol‑level floods under controlled conditions, measuring how your infrastructure, cloud scrubbing, and ISP protections respond. You receive metrics on time‑to‑mitigate, residual risk, and configuration gaps—plus a playbook to harden defenses before real attackers strike.

6. What is Purple Teaming, and why is it valuable?

Answer:
Purple Teaming merges Red (attacker) and Blue (defender) teams in a single, collaborative exercise. Our facilitators run live attack scenarios, then work side‑by‑side with your SOC to fine‑tune detections and response playbooks in real time—accelerating improvements that would normally take months.

7. How do you help companies secure generative‑AI and other AI tools?
Answer:
We perform AI‑specific risk assessments—covering prompt injection, data leakage, model poisoning, and governance compliance—then deploy tooling (DLP‑for‑AI, secure gateways, policy controls) to keep sensitive data safe while your teams innovate.

8. Do you work with startups as well as enterprises?
Answer:
Yes. We secure high‑growth startups, mid‑market companies, and global enterprises alike. Our modular service model and transparent pricing let smaller teams access the same offensive expertise Fortune‑500 clients rely on.

9. Which industries do you specialize in?
Answer:
Technology & SaaS, fintech, e‑commerce, healthcare, critical infrastructure, and any sector adopting AI at scale. Our threat intelligence library spans more than a dozen verticals, so testing scenarios reflect your industry’s real adversaries.

10. How quickly can you start an engagement?
Answer:
For urgent needs (e.g., DDoS readiness before product launch), we can mobilize within 72 hours. Standard projects—Red Team, Purple Team, AI risk audit—usually kick off within two weeks after scoping and NDA execution.

11. What certifications and frameworks do you follow?
Answer:
Our consultants hold OSCP, CISSP, GIAC, CREST, and AWS/Azure security credentials. Methodologies align with MITRE ATT&CK®, OWASP, NIST 800‑53, and ISO 27001—ensuring repeatable, standards‑based outcomes.

12. Can you support ongoing security programs, not just one‑off tests?
Answer:
Absolutely. Many clients extend our Red Team into a continuous “Assumed Breach” service or retain us as a virtual CISO advisor to guide security strategy year‑round.
