In addition to our extensive expertise in Windows internals and reverse engineering, the DeepSAFE team possesses specialized skills in operating beneath the OS layer. This expertise enables us to develop custom solutions for security, protection, and safety that function within the firmware or the hypervisor, offering an additional layer of defense beyond conventional methods.

Custom Solutions Operating Beneath the OS

• Firmware-Level Security: Our team's ability to operate at the firmware level allows for the creation of security solutions that are deeply embedded in the system. This approach provides an essential line of defense against sophisticated threats that target the firmware, ensuring security from the ground up.

• Hypervisor-Based Protection: By leveraging skills in hypervisor technology, we can develop protective mechanisms that operate at a level closer to the hardware. This enables more robust control and isolation of processes, providing a secure environment even in the face of advanced threats that bypass traditional OS-level security.

• Innovative Safety Measures: Our expertise also extends to creating safety solutions within the firmware and hypervisor. These solutions are particularly effective in safeguarding against attacks that exploit low-level vulnerabilities, ensuring the integrity of the system at its core.

• Advanced Security and Protection Strategies: By utilizing below-OS skills, we design strategies that enhance overall system security, offering an extra layer of protection that complements and strengthens existing security measures.

Enhancing Overall System Resilience

These advanced capabilities allow us to offer an unprecedented level of system resilience. Our solutions, functioning at the firmware and hypervisor levels, not only enhance the security posture but also provide a foundation for building safer and more secure digital environments. This holistic approach to security, encompassing both above and below the OS, ensures that our clients are equipped with the most comprehensive protection against evolving cyber threats.

For over three decades, the DeepSAFE team has been at the forefront of researching Windows internals, tracing its evolution from the 16-bit Windows 3.0 era to the latest versions. Our journey through the Windows operating system has been thorough and meticulous, examining its construction module by module, function by function, and delving deep into the realm of Windows internal undocumented APIs. This extensive research has not only provided us with an unparalleled understanding of Windows architecture but also enabled us to contribute significantly to the cybersecurity field.

Our team's expertise extends to a granular analysis of Windows code, identifying vulnerabilities and crafting sophisticated defense mechanisms. These contributions have been pivotal in enhancing the capabilities of top antivirus engines, ensuring robust protection against emerging threats. Our work goes beyond conventional analysis; we have extensively studied all variations of Windows, including its virtualization implementations.

Understanding Windows Virtualization-based Security (VBS) has been a key part of our research, allowing us to develop advanced protective measures that leverage these virtualization capabilities. Our in-depth knowledge encompasses every security feature built into Windows and its virtualization architecture. This expertise is not just theoretical; it's been applied in practical scenarios to fortify systems against complex cyber threats.

Our comprehensive grasp of Windows internals, combined with our proactive approach to security research, positions us uniquely in the field. We don’t just understand how Windows works; we understand how to make it safer and how to leverage its capabilities to create secure, resilient digital environments.

In addition to our extensive expertise in Windows internals and reverse engineering, the DeepSAFE team possesses specialized skills in operating beneath the OS layer.
