Argos was developed by IT security experts over many years to monitor and attack companies' external attack surfaces more efficiently. It was designed as a kind of "Red Team Toolkit". Together with classic IT security methods, Argos and the DSecured team can significantly improve the security of your company.
The Argos platform is an External Attack Surface Management (eASM) platform for continuous monitoring of companies from the perspective of an external attacker. The platform collects various data about the attack surface, evaluates it, and automatically launches non-intrusive attacks.
The primary focus of the platform is to give trained personnel a comprehensive insight into the company's IT security. This is achieved, for example, with the help of classic vulnerability scans, but also with specific attacks that the platform executes automatically.
No automatic tool can replace a creative attacker! Part of Argos is therefore access to our team of IT security experts who analyze anomalies and escalate them to real critical security vulnerabilities.
The platform provides important data for phishing and spear phishing attacks as well as red teaming in general.
Argos is fully automated, but we still check with each customer whether it makes sense to expand the predefined scope. Argos also offers modules for this.
Better than any marketing material is a simple (safe) proof of concept - contact us and we'll show you how to use Argos efficiently.
Of course, we won't do anything before we've made contact

Argos offers a variety of real attacker methods that enable a comprehensive overview of the infrastructure. Here you can see from an attacker's perspective how the infrastructure is structured, how it's connected, and which areas could be particularly interesting.
Especially with complex infrastructure, it's important to maintain an overview in order to respond accordingly.
Collecting data is one thing - understanding and analyzing it is another. Argos has been extensively tested and optimized during various red teaming operations. It is also continuously tested by experienced bug bounty hunters against hardened infrastructure.
The data it collects is regularly used to find critical security vulnerabilities in companies like PayPal or Tesla.
Argos is capable of making fully automated decisions and, for example, adapting scans depending on the target to both stay "under the radar" and increase efficiency.
However, users can also freely configure the platform at any point and customize each module/scan down to the finest detail.
Those who don't know what IT assets they own will never be able to truly defend them. Especially during bug bounty hunting, it's important to quickly and continuously find new assets and, for example, assign IP addresses in the cloud to companies or identify newly registered domains.
Often the company's IT department doesn't know which assets exist and how they're connected. Argos defines an asset here as a domain, subdomain, IP, ASN/CIDR, cloud asset, third-party service, a person or their information, or a combination of these.

It depends on what the customer wants. If no technical expertise from our side is required, Argos costs between €500 and €1,000 monthly for the majority of companies. For customers with very large infrastructure, we create a customized offer. Services are either included or can be added as needed, depending on the agreement.
To be honest: NO. If your company essentially consists only of a website - for example, a WooCommerce web shop or similar - then eASM systems like Argos make little sense. In this case, you should perhaps look for regular services such as pentests and OSINT. Nevertheless: Contact us and we'll see what makes sense and what doesn't.
Of course. We look forward to brief contact from you, where we'll gladly arrange an appointment for a demo and then go through everything.
This is also possible. We regularly perform one-time scans against existing infrastructure - especially before and after comprehensive digitalization processes (cloud migration, etc.) or before M&A integrations.
Yes, Argos is generally about continuous monitoring - meaning it makes sense to monitor infrastructure for a certain period of time to see how IT teams work, where and when they make mistakes, and how frequently errors occur. Typically, the minimum contract term is 3 months.
