Services

Three ways we work with you.

01

Cyber Hardening Sprint

A $1,500 flat-fee engagement — exposure scan, email security review, invoice-fraud check, and a written, prioritized fix list. See the full scope below.

02

Monthly Security Monitoring

Continuous intrusion detection and daily briefings after the Sprint, so fixes stay fixed instead of drifting back open. $1,500/month.

03

Subcontract Cyber Support

Veteran-owned, SDVOSB/VOSB-certified cyber capability for prime contractors who need it on a bid or task order without standing up their own team.

The offer

One engagement. Clear scope. Real fixes.

Most breaches don't start with something exotic — they start with an exposed login, a missing email record, or an invoice nobody double-checked. This finds it and fixes it.

Proof, not promises

What a scan actually finds.

Example: our own domain, scanned with the same tooling we run for clients. This is the format every engagement produces — a real before/after score and specific, actionable findings.

Beyond the sprint: standing coverage.

The Hardening Sprint is the front door. Behind it is the same distributed platform we're building for federal and regulated-industry work, scaled to what a mid-market shop actually needs.

DISTRIBUTED AI

Distributed AI Architecture

Multi-node AI infrastructure engineered for resilience and sovereignty — built for environments where cloud dependence is unacceptable.

AUTONOMOUS DEFENSE

Autonomous Cybersecurity

Continuous monitoring and automated response at machine speed. Every action logged, explainable, and reversible.

DARK WEB

Dark Web Monitoring

Targeted collection across hidden services, paste sites, and closed forums for leaked credentials, source code, and customer data.

OSINT

Open-Source Intelligence

Attack surface discovery, infrastructure mapping, and threat actor profiling for due diligence and executive protection.

FUSION

Threat Intelligence Fusion

Internal telemetry, commercial feeds, and dark web collection correlated into one operational picture, tuned by sector.

DETECTION

Canary & Intrusion Detection

Deployable deception and early-warning sensors across endpoint, network, and credential layers. Quiet, patient, always listening.

The platform

FORGE — the engine behind the work.

FORGE runs beneath every engagement: an analytical engine built for sustained, methodical operations at machine speed. It doesn't tire, doesn't miss cycles, doesn't forget. Collection and analysis run continuously; evidence is preserved, indexed, and retrievable on demand. When we brief you, FORGE is what stands behind the brief.

Who we are

A small firm. Deep bench.

Helix Forge is a veteran-owned cybersecurity and applied AI firm headquartered in Potterville, Michigan, founded by a former 82nd Airborne paratrooper. We work at the intersection of distributed AI research and applied defensive cyber operations — starting with the shops and manufacturers we know best, and building toward the federal and regulated-industry work that same infrastructure is built for. We build what we deploy, and we operate what we build.
