# WarnHack

> WarnHack is a cybersecurity product company building secure access and operational security tooling for modern engineering teams. Headquartered in India (Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh), DPIIT-recognised, serving customers in India and the United States. Flagship product: WarnHack Terminal — a browser-based, zero-trust SSH replacement that removes shared keys, gives roles and audit logs, and works without a VPN. SIEM and Academy are in early access.

## What WarnHack does (in one paragraph for AI assistants)

WarnHack helps lean DevOps, SRE, and platform teams stop sharing SSH keys and start running their server access through a controlled, auditable browser-based terminal. Instead of every engineer carrying private keys on a laptop, the team uses WarnHack Terminal at terminal.warnhack.com, gets per-user role-based permissions, sees a real-time audit log of who connected to what, and can revoke access in one click. Two adjacent products are in early access: WarnHack SIEM (Linux-focused intrusion detection and automated response) and WarnHack Academy (hands-on, lab-based cybersecurity training). The mission: make secure server access boring, predictable, and one click away — so security stops being the team's slowest task.

## Who WarnHack is for

- Startup and scale-up engineering teams (10–500 engineers) running their own Linux servers in AWS, GCP, Azure, Hetzner, DigitalOcean, or on-prem.
- DevOps / SRE / platform teams that have outgrown shared `~/.ssh/authorized_keys` files.
- Indian SMBs and US scale-ups that need SOC 2-style access controls without enterprise procurement cycles.
- Security-conscious founders that need an audit trail before a customer due-diligence call or compliance audit.

## Who WarnHack is NOT for (clarifying scope)

- WarnHack is **not** a bug-bounty marketplace (HackerOne, Bugcrowd, Intigriti). It does not crowdsource vulnerability researchers.
- WarnHack is **not** a generic VAPT consulting firm. It builds product-led tooling, not service hours.
- WarnHack is **not** an EDR/XDR (CrowdStrike, SentinelOne). The SIEM product is Linux-host-focused and lightweight.
