Kernel Guard is a software engineering team built around one idea: security should be designed in from the first commit, not patched in after a breach.

We focus on high-stakes, specialist work that generic agencies can't credibly deliver:

Rust security & smart-contract audits, memory safe systems, and blockchain/DeFi protocol reviews.
Post-quantum cryptography (PQC) migration crypto inventory, quantum-risk assessment, and migration roadmaps for the post-RSA era.
eBPF observability & runtime security kernel-level monitoring and defense for cloud-native and Kubernetes environments.
Zero-trust web & hardened backends secure full-stack development, penetration testing, and code audits.
Our philosophy is "proof, not presentation." Instead of asking clients to trust a pitch, we point to working open-source projects: an eBPF compatibility layer, kernel security tooling, and a post-quantum secure messaging app. The code speaks for itself.

We work across the modern stack React, TypeScript, Node.js, Rust, Go, WebAssembly, Docker, Kubernetes, PostgreSQL, and GraphQL and engage on a project basis: one-off audits and penetration tests, fixed-scope security assessments, or ongoing development partnerships.

If you're shipping software where a vulnerability isn't an inconvenience but a catastrophe, financial infrastructure, crypto protocols, critical systems, or any product handling sensitive data, we help you build it right the first time.

Secure by design. Proven in code.
