Offensive-security research

The still point in
offensive security.

ProjectMerai is an offensive-security outfit. We take apart the systems people rely on and understand them to the bottom. Rigorous, exacting, and open by default.

  • Canary confirmation

    Plants a harmless test DLL and proves it loads, eliminating the false positives that Robber, DLLSpy and WinPEAS leave you to triage by hand.

  • Multi-phase pipeline

    Discovery → Filtration → Canary Confirmation → Scoring. Confirmation is the gate: nothing is reported until it is proven exploitable.

  • Five scan profiles

    Aggressive, Strict, Safe, Redteam and UAC-bypass, spanning read-only recon through operational realism across an integrity boundary.

  • Reports that travel

    Console, JSON and HTML output, ready to drop straight into an assessment or a CI pipeline.
