How to read this page

The technologies below are examples of what our teams build on, secure and operate. The lists are not exhaustive, and they change as client environments change.

Naming a technology on this page does not indicate a commercial partnership with its vendor, or any endorsement by that vendor. Product names belong to their owners.

Working with client-chosen tools

Most organizations have already chosen their platforms. We start from what is in place. An engagement normally uses the client’s existing cloud, SIEM, identity provider and pipelines, under the client’s licenses and inside the client’s tenant.

Where a tool is missing or is not doing its job, we say so and set out the options with their trade-offs, including open-source tools and features already included in platforms the client pays for. The choice stays with the client.

If we do not have working experience with a tool a client depends on, we say that at scoping, before work starts.

Our own products

Onion Infosec is developing its own security products. They are in development and none is commercially available. Our services do not depend on them.
