That means not just offering effective and affordable solutions, but also empowering people and raising awareness. The Syndis team brings exceptional expertise in both offensive and defensive security—a combination that has proven invaluable in helping clients mature their security posture.I’ve followed Syndis from afar for a long time, and now I finally get to join this outstanding company and help make a real impact in these exciting times.
