Vilkas watches
while you sleep.

Built from years of incident-response work, Vilkas is GMTek's own monitoring platform — the engine behind every managed retainer.

🐺

Seven sentinels, one sub-2-second response.

Canary-watch, host-watch, account-watch, source-IP detection, reputation-kill, GreyNoise pre-filter, and tier-1 auto-block — running on your perimeter and reporting to your phone. Destructive actions run shadow-mode-first, so it earns trust before it acts. Live today on our own infrastructure with sub-2-second mean-time-to-detect.

How Vilkas works →
Proof

Two deep engagements.
Real attackers. Real money.

Client security work is confidential, so these are anonymized — but the work is real, paid, and ongoing. The whole stack, proven on live businesses.

Specialty Auto Shop

Pacific Northwest · credential-stuffing breach

Walked in on an active intruder and a card-testing wave. Evicted the attacker, blocked 36 hostile IPs, ran an 8-phase Cloudflare lockdown, restored a dead payment gateway, rebuilt the website, layered on SEO, stood up two AI receptionists and a custom intake app — now on a managed retainer with Vilkas watching.

Multi-Brand E-Commerce Group

~27 WordPress installs · ~97 domains

A sprawling portfolio under merchant-of-record PCI enforcement. Hardened every install with custom REST + XML-RPC plugins, migrated the fleet to Cloudflare with Pro WAF, swept SPF/DMARC/DKIM across the domains, and shipped a custom PCI checkout scrubber across 14 storefronts — transitioning to a recurring managed-defense partnership.

Web Facelifts & Upgrades

A facelift is the
fastest way in.

Most relationships start with a website. A tired site gets a facelift that looks like nobody else's, loads instantly, and feeds leads straight into intake — then the security, monitoring, and AI layers follow. These are concept redesigns we built to show range; every one runs live on our own infrastructure.

On-Prem AI

Ship the box.
Keep the data.

For regulated, IP-sensitive, and privacy-critical work, several of our products ship as turnkey hardware — inference runs locally, data never leaves the office, and a flat retainer covers patches and on-call.

🛡️
Data sovereignty

Case files, client records, and IP stay on hardware you own. No cloud round-trip required.

📉
Predictable cost

No per-token bills compounding monthly. Hardware plus a flat retainer instead of metered surprise.

🔌
Air-gapped capable

Critical workflows run with no internet connection. External sources are opt-in tools, not dependencies.

🧰
On-prem support

A monthly retainer covers patches, sustaining work, model-roster reviews, and on-call response.

Why GMTek

Why operators
call us back.

🚨
We've handled the real thing

Live breaches, card-testing waves, compromised admins — evicted and hardened, not theorized. The same hands that find it also fix it and watch it after.

🔒
Local, private, accountable

For work that can't go to the cloud, local and hybrid deployments are first-class. Your infrastructure, your data, audited egress where cloud is used at all.

🤝
We stay on the line

One-time work becomes a managed relationship: Vilkas keeps watching, and the operator console we'd want for ourselves is the one we ship to you.

A small studio on Whidbey Island that takes security seriously, builds real systems around how your team actually works, and doesn't disappear after the invoice clears.
