You Can’t Protect What You Don’t Know Exists: Complete Cybersecurity Solutions from Parrot CTFs

Continuous security monitoring for organizations that can’t afford blind spots.

---

Last month, a client came to us after a breach. The attacker’s entry point? A staging server on a subdomain that nobody remembered existed. It had been spun up two years ago for a demo, never decommissioned, and was running an unpatched version of WordPress with default credentials.

This story plays out constantly. Companies invest heavily in securing their known assets while forgotten infrastructure quietly accumulates risk in the shadows. The uncomfortable truth is that most organizations have no idea what their actual external attack surface looks like—let alone whether their applications, networks, and cloud environments are actually secure.

That’s why we built a complete suite of security services designed to find vulnerabilities before attackers do.

Introducing Lorikeet: Attack Surface Management

Lorikeet is our Attack Surface Management platform—a continuous monitoring service that discovers and tracks every internet-facing asset tied to your organization. Subdomains, open ports, exposed services, outdated software, misconfigured DNS, weak TLS… if it’s visible from the outside, Lorikeet finds it.

This isn’t a one-time scan. Lorikeet runs continuously, so when your dev team spins up a new subdomain at 2am or someone accidentally exposes a database port, you know about it before an attacker does.

What Lorikeet Monitors

Asset Type	What We Track
Subdomains	All subdomains including forgotten dev/staging environments
IP Addresses	Every IP associated with your organization
Open Ports	All exposed services and their versions
Web Applications	Technology stacks, frameworks, CMS versions
SSL/TLS	Certificate health, cipher suites, protocol versions
DNS Records	Misconfigurations, dangling CNAMEs, takeover risks
Email Security	SPF, DKIM, DMARC configuration analysis
Third-Party Services	Connected services and their security posture

How Lorikeet Works

Lorikeet uses the same reconnaissance techniques that real attackers use—just continuously and on your behalf.

Phase	Description
1. Discovery	Automated subdomain enumeration using DNS brute force, certificate transparency logs, and search engine scraping
2. Port Scanning	Continuous identification of all exposed ports and running services
3. Fingerprinting	Technology and version detection across your entire attack surface
4. Vulnerability Scanning	Integration with industry-standard scanners to catch known CVEs
5. SSL/TLS Assessment	Certificate expiration, weak ciphers, protocol vulnerabilities
6. DNS Analysis	SPF/DKIM/DMARC validation, hijacking risk assessment
7. Change Detection	Real-time alerts when your attack surface changes
8. Threat Intelligence	Correlation with active exploit trends and emerging threats

Common Vulnerabilities We Find

• Forgotten Subdomains & Shadow IT — staging.yourcompany.com, dev-api.yourcompany.com, that random subdomain someone pointed at their home IP
• Exposed Development Environments — Debug mode enabled, default credentials, production data copies
• Outdated Software Versions — Known CVEs on assets nobody knew existed
• Misconfigured DNS — Dangling CNAMEs ripe for subdomain takeover
• Weak SSL/TLS — Expired certs, TLS 1.0 enabled, weak cipher suites
• Exposed Admin Panels — phpMyAdmin, WordPress admin, cPanel open to the internet
• Open Database Ports — MongoDB, MySQL, Redis, Elasticsearch directly exposed
• Information Disclosure — Software versions, internal paths, stack traces in banners

Penetration Testing Services

Annual vulnerability scans aren’t enough. Real attackers don’t follow a checklist—they chain vulnerabilities together, exploit business logic flaws, and find the gaps automated tools miss entirely. Our penetration testing services use manual testing by certified experts who actually know how to break into systems.

IoT & Hardware Testing	$12,500	Embedded systems and firmware security
ATM & Kiosk Testing	$15,000	Payment terminal and kiosk security

Our Penetration Testing Methodology

Phase	What Happens
Phase 1: Reconnaissance	OSINT, DNS enumeration, subdomain discovery, technology fingerprinting
Phase 2: Vulnerability Assessment	Industry tools + custom scripts to identify potential vulnerabilities

Case Study: When the Printer Was the Entry Point

“JBWEB Analytics engaged our team to reverse engineer suspected malware samples. During our investigation, we discovered sophisticated evasion techniques—the attacker had meticulously covered their tracks using fileless execution methods and remote server infrastructure. This was a complex attack chain that traditional detection methods missed completely.

The initial access vector? A printer.

Sometimes the most overlooked assets are the most dangerous.”
