About Dark Ocelot

// INDEPENDENT OFFENSIVE SECURITY RESEARCH LAB

Dark Ocelot is an independent offensive security lab. We focus on discovering and responsibly disclosing software vulnerabilities (CVEs), developing proof-of-concept exploits, and engineering open-source security tools.

We believe the most durable defensive posture starts with understanding offensive tradecraft at the binary, identity, and network levels. Our research is driven by rigorous technical analysis and a commitment to advancing community defense through open, verifiable work.

Core Focus

CVE Discovery

Auditing critical software, cloud platforms, and protocols to discover novel vulnerabilities and build reproducible proof-of-concept exploits.

Offensive Tools

Building fast, purpose-built CLI utilities, evasion harnesses, and telemetry testing tools in Go, Rust, and C.

Responsible Disclosure

Standard 90-day coordinated disclosure policy. We collaborate with maintainers to review patches before publishing research.

Researchers

Cassian Starck

Lead Security Researcher
