Cyber for the agentic era.

Defend what your AI touches.

Parade Warrior is a Sydney cyber consultancy for businesses where AI is changing the threat surface faster than the frameworks can keep up. We secure the agentic AI, copilots, MCP servers, and model supply chains your business already uses — and we still do the ISO 27001 and ISO 42001 work that gets you certified.

Why this matters now

ISO 27001 wasn't written for agentic AI.

Most security programs aren't ready for what their employees and vendors are already shipping. Five new risk surfaces have opened up in the last 18 months — and the frameworks haven't caught up.

Ecosystem signal

Enterprises are now operationalizing Claude — not just piloting it. Anthropic has launched an official Claude Partner Network to support training, technical enablement, and joint market development for partners delivering Claude into real customer environments. It's a signal: Claude deployments are moving into repeatable patterns, shared architectures, and a real services supply chain.

Agentic AI
What it isLLM agents with tool and API access acting on behalf of staff
Why most firms miss itNo control framework yet — ISO 27001 doesn't cover it
Shadow AI
What it isEmployees using ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot with corporate data
Why most firms miss itTreated as DLP — it's actually an identity and data-classification problem
AI supply chain
What it isModels, weights, prompts, MCP servers, third-party agents as new dependencies
Why most firms miss itTPRM and SSRM frameworks weren't built for this
Generative threats
What it isDeepfake voice and video, AI phishing, synthetic identity, polymorphic malware
Why most firms miss itSOC tooling is signature and heuristic-based, lagging
Algorithmic accountability
What it isEU AI Act, ISO/IEC 42001, NIST AI RMF, Australian Voluntary AI Safety Standard
Why most firms miss itMost cyber firms don't have an AI governance practice

How we're different

Senior-only team.

You get a practitioner with twenty years across architecture, governance, and operations — not a graduate with a checklist.

AI-augmented delivery.

Our internal agents draft policies, map controls, and generate ISMS artefacts in days, not months. The work is faster, cheaper, and more consistent.

Productized, fixed price.

Most of our work has a defined scope, deliverable, and price before you sign. No hourly meter. No surprise invoices.

Who we work with

We focus on two kinds of business.

Australian mid-market firms

50 to 1,000 staff, often in regulated or high-trust sectors — legal, financial services, professional services, health.

AI-native scale-ups

Series A to C companies shipping AI products that need SOC 2, ISO 27001, or customer trust pages to close enterprise deals.

If that's you, we'd like to talk.
