Why Nomad Exists
Modern organizations increasingly rely on software, yet many operate without a dedicated application security function. Vulnerabilities are discovered, but there is often no consistent process for validating findings, understanding business impact, coordinating remediation, or confirming that fixes are effective.
The Reality
Many organizations today:
Do not have application security engineers
Have small development teams without security expertise
Rely on general IT staff for security decisions
Receive vulnerability reports without knowing how to evaluate them
Struggle to prioritize security work against business priorities
Have inconsistent processes for handling security issues
The result: Some vulnerabilities remain unresolved. Others are fixed without understanding root causes. Valuable lessons are often lost after remediation.
Our Mission
Help organizations establish and strengthen the operational pipeline that turns security findings into measurable security improvements. For organizations without an existing process, we help establish one. For organizations with existing practices, we help strengthen assessment quality, disclosure handling, remediation coordination, and verification.
The Four Pillars
Our work naturally divides into four pillars that describe a complete lifecycle from discovering risk to ensuring it's actually addressed.
Assess
Independent application security assessments
Identify meaningful security issues through rigorous, evidence-driven evaluation. We separate genuine vulnerabilities from false positives and help organizations understand technical impact.
Research
Technical write-ups and methodology
Document findings, technical analysis, and lessons learned. Our research helps organizations understand vulnerabilities, root causes, and how to prevent similar issues in the future.
Disclose
Responsible disclosure and coordination
Support coordinated communication between researchers, developers, leadership, and stakeholders. We translate technical findings into business risk that leadership understands.
Verify
Retesting and confirmation of fixes
Retest implemented fixes to ensure vulnerabilities have been effectively addressed. Verification confirms that remediation efforts are successful and complete.
