Yack, Cybersecurity on the Offensive

lignes-graphiques-1

If Yack were

he'd be the hacker you want to introduce to your board AND your gang of nerds on Discord. In founding Yack, we found the sweet spot that allows us to combine our technical expertise with our passion for business and offensive security.

Who is

One of the biggest challenges in cybersecurity is getting the technical teams and the executive board to speak the same language. Yack is fluent in both languages and is an excellent translator-interpreter. We know from experience that if the gap between these two worlds is reduced or eliminated, the magic happens.

Our entire approach has been based on this complementarity. We don't sell penetration tests, we add a hacker/entrepreneur to your team. Believe us, it makes all the difference.

How can Yack help you?_

We share with you a hacker's brain to help you improve your security level. Rather than thinking defensively as is traditionally done, we build our strategy on the offensive to help you be more proactive.
  • Internal network
  • Wireless networks (Wifi)
  • OT equipment (Scada)
  • Website / Web apps
  • API
  • Mobile apps
To help you, we have created 4 types of penetration testing packages depending on the asset to be tested and the underlying need. Of course, we can adapt to your reality. For example, if you already have a vulnerability scanning tool, we think you will really value our Bring your own scanner concept 😉—---

Yack was created to allow us to live by these values and help our clients in our own way. If this sounds like you, we are eager to talk to you ☺

IT Director @Club des petits déjeuners

Doing business with Yack was the best choice we could have made. We met with several firms, but their vibe and value proposition are really the best, especially their "No bullshit policy".

Pierre-Olivier
Cofounder & CTO @Coeurway

Excellent service from a (very) small team with fantastic expertise. Afterwards, free sharing of knowledge/tools/tools/good practices and superbly well adapted to our business reality. Great transparency about fees and costs, and always pragmatic about the effort made VS the added value for the customer. Very satisfied, thank you!

Why Yack?

First, for those of you who don't know, the yak is an animal. The energy it radiates (chill with its toupee, but we wouldn't want to piss it off with its horns...) represents us well, and the nerdiest among you might see the little nod to Linux 😉. Of course, Yack's resemblance to Hack is no mere coincidence. It's also a short, punchy name that, once again, sounds like us. Finally, it's a word that earns you 24 points in Scrabble (hello Office de la langue française). Why did you choose .one? In offensive security, all it takes is one attack..."
A little more about us

"Pourquoi Yack?

First, pour ceux qui ne le savent pas, le yack est un animal. L'énergie qu'il dégage (chill avec son toupet, mais on ne voudrait pas l'énerver avec ses cornes...) nous représente bien, et les plus nerds d'entre vous verront peut-être le petit clin d'œil à Linux 😉. Bien sûr, la ressemblance de Yack avec Hack n'est pas une simple coïncidence. C'est aussi un nom court, qui punch, et qui encore une fois, nous ressemble. Enfin, c'est un mot qui te rapporte 24 points au scrabble (bonjour office de la langue française). Pourquoi avoir choisi .one? En sécurité offensive, il suffit d'une (one) attaque..."
