We take systems apart and publish what we find.
We build custom web apps, mobile apps, network labs and security tools for students and small businesses. Cyconic is a student-run security research group in Islamabad, and every project we publish shows how we work. See what yours would cost.

An estimate. We read your request and confirm the final price within 24 hours, before you pay anything.
What we research
03 areas-
net
Network security
Segmentation, firewalls, intrusion detection and how traffic actually moves through a network. This is where our future services will come from.
-
web
Web & API security
Authentication, access control and input handling: the bugs behind most real breaches, studied on apps we build or are permitted to test.
-
lab
Labs & tooling
Isolated, rebuildable environments and small tools for practising attacks and defences safely. Every lab ships with its setup notes.
Projects
research log-
CYC-001
Building an OpenStack private cloud
DevStack to a two-node Kolla-Ansible cloud with Heat and Octavia load balancing, and the fixes for NoValidHost, stuck load balancers and a silent Redis dependency.
-
CYC-002
Segmenting a campus network with SDN
VLANs per department and a Ryu OpenFlow controller that blocks labs from reaching admin, verified with flow counters and packet captures, plus where the design still falls short.
Need a project built?
The labs above are the kind of work we take on for others: course projects, security tools, network setups and small systems for startups. Every build comes with full source, a setup guide and a troubleshooting guide.
