About Us
At Payatu, an ISMG company, we live and breathe cybersecurity. As a research-powered cybersecurity services and training company, our mission is to eliminate security threats through cutting-edge assessments and knowledge-sharing, driven by some of the most skilled and passionate professionals in the field. Our flagship global conferences – Nullcon and Hardwear.io – are known for pushing the boundaries of technical excellence and community-driven impact.
We don’t just follow industry standards — we set them. Every challenge is an opportunity, every vulnerability is a puzzle, and every day is a new step toward securing the world.
