SECTOR_00 // OFFENSIVE CYBERSECURITY
Find the breach
before they do.
uMercs finds the gaps attackers would exploit, across your networks, applications, cloud, and people, before they do. As AI agents take over customer conversations and internal workflows, they've become the newest battleground. We test those too. Penetration testing, red team operations, and AI security assessments, with clear findings and trusted partners ready to help you remediate. Whether you're preparing for a compliance audit, proving to clients that you're secure, or just want peace of mind, we'll show you exactly where you stand.

STATES SERVEDSECTOR_02 // HOW WE OPERATE
We think like the adversary, so you don't have to learn the hard way.
01
RECON
We map your people, phone lines, AI agents, and exposed infrastructure the way an attacker would, starting with OSINT and breached data.
02
INFILTRATE
Our operators chain weaknesses into real attack paths: a pretext call, a poisoned ticket, a misconfigured cloud role.
03
PROVE
Every finding comes with evidence: recordings, screenshots, and the exact steps an adversary would take.
04
HARDEN
You get prioritized fixes, agent coaching, and a retest to confirm the door is actually closed.
SECTOR_01 // CAPABILITIES
Offensive security across every attack surface — human and machine.
SECTOR_02 // WHY UMERCS
4 reasons to choose uMercs as your offensive security partner.
Real-World Offensive Security
We go beyond basic vulnerability scans. Our team attacks the way real adversaries do: networks, web apps, mobile, cloud, wireless, and AI systems, plus the people and buildings around them. That means vishing your call center, manipulating your AI phone, text, and ticketing agents, and testing your doors, badges, and cameras on site.
Continuous Offensive Testing
Security isn't a once-a-year exercise. Scout RECON and Force RECON Elite provide ongoing pen testing and threat discovery.
Deep Technical Expertise
Our advisory focuses on the technical side — red team maturity, detection engineering, and security operations.
Proven Security Readiness
Purple team engagements and tabletop exercises test detection, response, and coordination under simulated attack.
