We are now building a private cybersecurity advisory practice focused on NIS2 compliance: audits, gap analysis and readiness assessments for businesses navigating Europe's toughest new regulatory requirement. We work at the intersection of policy expertise and practical cybersecurity — translating complex regulatory obligations into actionable programmes for clients in energy, healthcare, finance, transport and digital infrastructure. If you want to work on meaningful problems, in a credible and growing practice, with real institutional backing and the freedom to shape what comes next — RAS Institute is where that happens.

Bynario provides autonomous software security across the complete vulnerability lifecycle - from discovery to validation to repair. We analyze compiled binaries, firmware, and dependencies without requiring source code access, proving which vulnerabilities are actually exploitable before attackers find them. Our platform combines binary-level analysis with autonomous validation and supply chain protection: we don't just flag potential issues, we prove exploitability, generate fixes automatically, and block malicious packages before they're installed. Organizations use Bynario to secure critical software they run but don't control - third-party components, vendor firmware, dependencies - reducing security team workload by 90% while closing exposure windows from weeks to minutes. We serve mission-critical industries where software failure has consequences beyond downtime: aerospace, defense, cloud infrastructure, financial services, and government. These are organizations that can't afford implicit trust in their software supply chain - and can't wait weeks for manual security validation. We're building toward a world where every piece of software an organization depends on can be analyzed, understood, and verified autonomously. Where vulnerabilities are found before attackers find them. Where patches are applied before breaches happen. Where software sovereignty isn't an aspiration - it's a baseline. We're early-stage, venture-backed, and building for the long term. This is a deeply technical environment built on rigor, precision, and a commitment to doing things the right way. If you value technical excellence, ownership, and doing things the right way, this is the place.
