About The Cypher Network

---

TCN was born the moment we spotted a strategic blind-spot in boardrooms: plenty of policies, yet no one who could feel the threat landscape in real time. Our founders - borne out of red-team culture —brought a different wiring to the table: divergent thinkers who zoom out to geopolitical risk and zoom in to packet captures without changing gears, able to lock onto emerging signals with laser-level focus while others are still reading last quarter’s report.

What began as ad-hoc briefings for a handful of CEOs quickly snowballed when those executives realised they were finally hearing security insights that spanned technology, finance, regulation, psychology and culture—delivered by practitioners who had actually breached systems, not just audited them. We formalised the model: fractional CISOs forged in hacker culture, fluent in board language, and committed to privacy- and security-by-default trust architectures. Today that same gap-filling DNA drives every engagement we take on—turning hyper-focused threat oversight into strategic advantage for leaders who refuse to be blindsided.

What started as after-hours CTF briefings for a handful of curious CEOs has evolved into a global force. Today we embed fractional CISOs on five continents and run an Emerging Tech Lab that reverse-engineers everything from drone firmware and broadcast protocols to LLM prompts. Around that hub we’ve built a worldwide guild of specialists in wireless sensors, embedded hardware, AI ethics & safety, and quantum-safe cryptography.

• Board & C-Suite Counsel – We sit shoulder-to-shoulder with CEOs, CIOs and audit chairs, turning raw threat signals into strategy, budgets and KPI-ready metrics.
   
• Investor & Treasury Advisory – From family offices to DeFi treasuries, we guide capital allocators on securing digital-asset portfolios, MPC custody, and post-quantum key life-cycles.
   
• Incident-to-Resilience Engagements – When breaches erupt, regulators knock or litigation looms, we are invited in to triage, collaborate with forensic investigators, external counsel and auditors, and rebuild trust architectures that satisfy compliance and insurers alike.
   

Organisations now tap Australian talent through TCN to architect trust into innovation across AI, broadcasting, IoT, finance, healthcare—and the fast-forming threat surfaces of technologies not yet named.
