"We executed perfect targeted phishing attacks for years. AI didn't invent them—it democratized them. What took us weeks now takes any attacker minutes. Pattern-based defenses were never designed to stop attacks that AI-engineered to evade patterns. That's why we built Ocean: to investigate threats with the depth they demand, at the scale enterprises require."

Our Founders
