Project403 — Pre-Threat Intelligence for Encrypted Traffic

We see rehearsals, not just breaches.

Project403 is a private pre-threat engine. We analyse how attackers rehearse in and around encrypted traffic — timing, routes, handshake patterns — and mark future attacks for denial before a single payload exists. We select customers. We don’t advertise.

[403] Pre-threat model initialising…

Encrypted-aware telemetry Pre-threat intent modeling No payload inspection

Signals from the parts of the internet you don’t see.

Project403 complements, not replaces, your existing security stack. We focus on the encrypted edge — where traditional payload-based tools struggle — and deliver pre-threat signal into the controls you already operate.

Global sensor mesh

Distributed collectors observe non-content telemetry: routes, handshake fingerprints, timing patterns and failures across multiple regions, clouds and partners.

Designed for strict privacy and governance: no decrypted content ever leaves your control.

Rehearsal & intent models

We model how adversaries rehearse: probing edge routes, simulating lateral movement, tuning infrastructure — often days before an actual attack.

Scores intent at the campaign level, not just single IPs or events.

Denial & integration rails

Pre-threat decisions feed into your network, identity and workload controls. Suspicious paths are marked “403-bound” by default.

Integrates into your existing enforcement fabric, not a parallel silo.

From encrypted telemetry to fewer incidents.

Every deployment is bespoke, but the pattern is consistent: observe rehearsal in encrypted noise, fuse intent across customers, and quietly remove the attack from the future.

Observe the encrypted edge

We integrate at customer perimeters and selected partners to ingest metadata-level features: TLS handshakes, routing dynamics, anomaly-rich failures. Decryption keys are never requested.

Model rehearsal, not just impact

                Models learn how real campaigns practice: across tenants,
                regions and time. The output is a pre-threat score and
                narrative, not just an IOC list.
              

Deny the attack’s future

Pre-threat narratives drive changes in your enforcement rails. The live incident never materialises; your SOC stays quiet on a breach that never happened.

Project403 is aimed at operators who already run mature detection and response programs — the ones who need signal that sits orthogonal to traditional tools.

Privacy-first: content remains encrypted. We operate solely on metadata-level signals.
Operator-grade: built for organisations with established SOC, threat intel and incident response practices.
Invitation-only: we select customers based on threat surface, operational maturity and shared risk model.

You don’t sign up. We reach out.

There is no public self-serve tier, signup flow or pricing page. Project403 is positioned for a small set of operators where encrypted-edge pre-threat coverage changes the risk equation.

This form is a front-end demo only. It does not send, store or process any data. A real engagement would start over carefully controlled, out-of-band channels.
