SensePost (Orange Cyberdefense)

SensePost is the elite ethical hacking team within Orange Cyberdefense, with a track record in offensive security stretching back to 1999 and originating from Pretoria, South Africa. The team is renowned for building widely-used security tools, including Snoopy, Mallet, reDuh, and rastamouse's historical contributions to Responder, and for presenting groundbreaking research at Black Hat, DEF CON, and 44CON year after year. SensePost was acquired by SecureData in 2016 and rolled into Orange Cyberdefense in 2019, but the team retains a distinct boutique, research-first identity inside the larger group.

SensePost delivers penetration testing, red teaming, social engineering, adversary simulation, and security training services, including the long-running "Hacking By Numbers" training course taught at Black Hat for nearly two decades. Their engagements span web and mobile application testing, network and Active Directory assessments, cloud security reviews, and full-scope red team operations. As part of Orange Cyberdefense, SensePost has access to global threat intelligence, 24x7 SOC resources, and European cleared-personnel capability, while maintaining their South-African-rooted, technically deep consulting culture.

SensePost is best suited to enterprises and government clients in Africa and Europe that want consultancy-grade offensive security backed by a global parent. The team is a particularly natural fit for South African banks, telcos, and state-owned enterprises subject to POPIA, as well as European organisations seeking research-driven red teaming under Orange Cyberdefense's consolidated service desk.
