## About Tachyonik

Tachyonik GmbH is an early-stage start-up dedicated to making cybersecurity management effective. Tagline: "Cybersecurity. Automated. Simplified."

Tachyonik accompanies and supports organisations on their path to effective cybersecurity management. It offers personal on-site support for inventory and gap analysis, but above all aims to sustainably automate this work — with a solution oriented entirely toward actionable recommendations, one that can act on its own if desired.

Note: The product is currently an early-phase Proof of Concept (PoC), being rolled out during 2026 (see Roadmap below).

## The Challenge

**Cybersecurity at a tipping point.** Small and medium-sized organisations are often overwhelmed by the sheer variety of cybersecurity solutions, rapidly changing threats, and endless expert opinions on what to prioritise. Typical responses — consulting, all-in-one platforms, or managed security services like SOCs — pile on complexity, costs, and dependencies.

- ~3.5M unfilled cyber jobs globally
- 277 days average breach detection time

## What We Offer — Effective Cybersecurity Management

Tachyonik is turning complexity into clarity.

- **Sovereignty** — Choose guided manual control up to fully autonomous orchestration, or anything in between. Use a built-in AI model, your preferred AI model, or even no AI, to meet your requirements for performance, capability and compliance. From audit trail to Open Source, we add trust.
- **Action-centric** — Tachyonik talks to you about actions, not about data. You are guided about next actions while maintaining full transparency. Follow the action guide or instruct via chat interface.
- **Radical Simplicity** — Cybersecurity knowledge is built into the system: it knows what is relevant, how to learn from data, and how to use security tools. This radically simplifies and even automates usage. The system anticipates next steps; the user is never left without a guide. No user manual or tutorials needed.

## How It Works

We don't replace your cybersecurity tools. We put them to work. And close gaps.

1. **Connect** — Integrate Tachyonik with your existing infrastructure in minutes by installing the Tachyonik Proxy. No need to explain your setup; it is learned autonomously, though Tachyonik may ask follow-up questions or request your approval.
2. **Analyze** — The solution discovers your cybersecurity tools and provides actionable recommendations for orchestrating them. Blind spots in asset coverage and tool landscape are identified. Policies are taken into account.
3. **Act** — The action guide proposes next steps with a couple of options and can let things run automated next time. It adjusts in real time to updated information, availability of security tools, and decisions. The outcome is improved, resilient cybersecurity management.

## Product: Tachyonik Deployment (SaaS | SOC | On-Prem)

The Tachyonik Platform consists of three elements: at the core is the **Application**, flanked by an **Internal AI** running proven open-source models and an **AI Feed**. The Internal AI ensures that customer data never leaves the platform. The AI Feed continuously delivers updated AI guidance — such as improved prompts, tested integrations for additional cybersecurity tools, and up-to-date standard rulesets.

Building blocks:

- **Application** — business logic and database
- **Internal AI** — proven open-source models
- **AI Feed** — continuously updated

**External AI (optional, per user):** Users can optionally connect any external AI and use it instead of the Internal AI. This allows integrating very large AI models with corresponding performance. Depending on the API key, these models can also take into account additional user data that is not available to — or should not be shared with — the Tachyonik Platform. The connection is secure, but the user must of course trust the external AI.

**Tachyonik Proxy:** Installed on-site and connected to the Tachyonik Platform via a secure connection — inbound or outbound, as preferred. It has two tasks: (1) automatic discovery of security tools, on the system itself and in the surrounding network — once approved by the user, these tools become available to the Application as capabilities; (2) integration of security tools into workflows for security analysis (e.g. scanners) and security improvements (e.g. patch systems). The Tachyonik Proxy requires no special privileges.

Deployment variants:

- **SaaS via browser/API** — The Platform is controlled manually via the browser or through API access. No Tachyonik component is installed in the customer's own infrastructure. Data is explicitly uploaded and results retrieved. There is no control of the customer's own security tools by Tachyonik.
- **SaaS via Proxy** — The Tachyonik Proxy is installed on-site and connected to the Platform over a secure connection, enabling discovery and control of existing security tools.
- **SOC** — The Application and, if applicable, an Internal AI are operated by a Security Operations Center. SOCs have varying degrees of integration with customer infrastructure; security tools may also reside within the SOC itself. Tachyonik Proxies are positioned and linked accordingly.
- **On-premise** — The Application and, if applicable, an Internal AI are installed in the customer's own infrastructure, so data remains within the organization. The Application connects to the AI Feed to receive updates and capability extensions; the Tachyonik Feed service also delivers application updates.

## Concepts in Practice (videos)

Watch it — or try it yourself. Three short videos walk through Tachyonik's core ideas: how action-centric cybersecurity management feels, and how the Tachyonik Proxy discovers and controls existing security capabilities.

- **Action-centric automation** — what action-centric, automated cybersecurity management actually feels like in everyday use. https://tachyonik.com/videos/Getting-started-with-the-very-basics-of-Tachyonik-CSM.mp4
- **Explore your security capabilities** — install a local Tachyonik Proxy and let it discover the cybersecurity tools you already have. https://tachyonik.com/videos/Using-Tachyonik-Proxy-to-explore-capabilities.mp4
- **Control your security capabilities** — three ways to drive cybersecurity actions through the Tachyonik Proxy, from manual to fully automated. https://tachyonik.com/videos/Using-Tachyonik-Proxy-to-control-capabilities.mp4

## Company — Our Vision

Tachyonik is a start-up dedicated to making cybersecurity management effective. Our vision: a solution that autonomously consolidates cybersecurity tools into one effective, fast, and simple platform. We are pursuing a paradigm shift — instead of the human working on too many details within the system, we place the human above the system. The user supports the otherwise autonomous system only when needed or on request. And the system is action-centric instead of information-centric. The user retains full transparency and full control over all activities, including the AI models being used.

**Flexibility:** Tachyonik is designed for maximum flexibility — users can run the application via the Tachyonik platform or on-site, and can use the Tachyonik AI, any third-party AI, or their own on-site AI — whatever fits their security and compliance requirements.

**Business model:** Built on the deep experience and knowledge of the Tachyonik team, delivered as a continuously updated and extended AI Feed. This feed improves and expands the AI's capabilities to address evolving cybersecurity challenges — so the platform gets smarter every day.

**Team:** Tachyonik was founded by Jan-Oliver Wagner, who also co-founded Greenbone and for years drove and architected the OpenVAS framework. The team combines deep expertise with young agility, united by a shared vision for maximum customer value.

**Partners:** Partnerships have a clearly defined and measurable benefit — for partners, for Tachyonik, and for customers. Whether technical, commercial, or financial.

**Customers:** Customer value is the ultimate measure of success. Customers shape the Tachyonik solution; every bug report, critique, and suggestion makes the product better.
