Secure it.
Keep it running.
Build what's next.
BITS breaks into systems for a living, then helps you fix them, keep them up when things go wrong, and build new ones properly. Penetration testing, managed security, BCM and DR, cloud and software for Nigerian businesses and government.
Illustrative sessions. Client names are never disclosed.

What we do
Three jobs. One team that understands how they connect.
Most firms do one of these and outsource the rest. That's how you end up with a DR plan nobody pentested and an app nobody planned to recover. We do all three, so the gaps between them get covered.
Secure it.
Find the holes before someone else does, then close them and watch for the next one.
Keep it running.
Plan for the bad day: the ransomware note, the dead data centre, the vendor that vanishes.
Build what's next.
Software, cloud and data systems built by people who also know how they get attacked.
Practice areas
Everything between the first line of code and the worst day of the year.
How we operate
Six rules we don't bend.
Trust is the whole product in security work. Here's what you can hold us to.
Attackers and builders share a desk
Our pentesters review the code our engineers write. Our engineers fix what our pentesters find. Security knowledge flows into every project instead of arriving as a surprise at the end.
Reports written for the people who fix things
Every finding ships with proof, business impact and a specific fix. And a one-page summary your board will actually read. No 200-page PDFs of scanner output.
Built for how Nigeria actually works
Unreliable grid power, fibre cuts, dollar-priced cloud bills, CBN circulars and the NDPA. We plan around local reality instead of copying a London playbook.
No vendor kickbacks
We don't take referral fees from software or hardware vendors. When we recommend a tool, it's because it fits your problem, not our margin.
Your secrets stay secret
NDAs before scoping, encrypted evidence handling, data destroyed on completion and we never name clients without written permission. Discretion is the job.
We tell you what you don't want to hear
If your plan won't survive a real incident, or you don't need the expensive thing you asked for, we'll say so. Early and plainly.
Engagement model
From first call to fixed. Here's what working with us looks like.
- 1
Day 1
Talk
A 30-minute call under NDA. What worries you, what's due, what's already been tried.
- 2
Days 2–5
Scope
A written proposal with fixed price, timeline, team and rules of engagement. No surprises on the invoice.
- 3
Weeks
Execute
Weekly check-ins, a shared channel and critical findings escalated the same day they're found.
- 4
Final week
Hand over
Reports, runbooks, code and a live walkthrough. Your team leaves knowing more than when we started.
- 5
Ongoing
Stay close
Retests, retainers, managed services or just a phone number for when something breaks.
