KnightHawk Cybersecurity builds AI-assisted security assessment and compliance readiness tools for small and midsize businesses and DoD contractors — delivering clearer security insight without enterprise complexity.
Security Intelligence That Works for Everyone
KnightHawk was built on a simple idea: every organization — regardless of size, budget, or in-house expertise — deserves clear, actionable security intelligence. Not dashboards that require weeks of tuning. Not reports that tell you nothing useful.
Our product is Watchtower — an AI-powered security assessment and compliance readiness platform. Upload a log file, receive a full security assessment with MITRE ATT&CK mapping, investigation steps, and remediation guidance. No security expertise required.

Built for the Organizations That Need Security Most
Whether you're a small business owner or a defense contractor working toward CMMC compliance — Watchtower is built for you.
Small & Midsize Businesses
Most SMBs have no dedicated security staff — and they don't need one to use Watchtower. Upload a log file, get a plain-English security assessment with MITRE mappings and remediation steps. No security expertise required.
SMB DetailsCMMC-Regulated Contractors
Defense contractors and DIB suppliers working toward CMMC Level 2 use Watchtower to generate evidence-ready reports and NIST 800-171 domain coverage analysis — with reporting designed to support both IT teams and compliance reviews.
CMMC DetailsSecurity Intelligence Designed Around How You Actually Work
AI-Powered, Not AI-Hyped
We use AI where it adds real value — threat summarization, MITRE mapping, CMMC evidence analysis, and executive risk briefing — and deterministic scoring logic where precision is non-negotiable.
Compliance Intelligence, Not Just Reports
Watchtower doesn't generate PDFs — it generates evidence-ready reports, NIST 800-171 domain coverage analysis, and operational value estimates that leadership can act on. The output works in board meetings, not just IT reviews.
Focused on Action
Every report, finding, and briefing is tied to a clear next step. We don't just tell you something is wrong — we tell you what to do about it, why it matters, and what it costs if you don't.
Built for Modern Threats
From brute-force attacks and DNS tunneling to lateral movement and ransomware precursors — Watchtower is built around the threat landscape businesses and defense contractors face today.
Security That Feels Clear, Practical, and Usable
Too many security tools are built for security teams — full of jargon, dashboards that require weeks of tuning, and reports that don't tell you what to actually do next.
KnightHawk is different. A business owner, an IT manager, or a DoD contractor's compliance lead should be able to use Watchtower and walk away with a clear understanding of their risk — and a concrete plan to address it.
Built on SOC 2-Aligned Security Practices
We handle customer security logs, CMMC evidence, and sensitive infrastructure data. Our platform is built with the controls and data handling practices aligned to SOC 2 Trust Services Criteria — because a cybersecurity company must practice what it sells.
Per-Customer Tenant Isolation
Every customer's data is isolated by a unique tenant ID tied to their authenticated Supabase account. No customer's logs, reports, or evidence can be accessed by another customer — by design, not just by policy.
Encrypted Storage & Transit
All data is encrypted in transit via TLS. Stored log data and evidence reports are encrypted at rest. Access to backend systems requires multi-factor authentication and is restricted by role.
Your Logs Are Not Training Data
Customer logs are stored solely to support that customer's reports, search, and Q&A. Raw customer log data is never used for shared model training. Product improvements rely only on minimized, sanitized, aggregated data.
Documented AI Data Handling
Log excerpts sent to AI vendors are governed by each vendor’s business data handling policy. For OpenAI API usage, business API data is not used for model training by default unless explicitly opted in. We document what data each AI vendor receives and under what conditions.
Access Control & Audit Logging
Role-based access controls govern what each system component can read and write. Access to customer data is logged. Admin access to production systems requires documented authorization and MFA.
SOC 2 Readiness Roadmap
We are building toward SOC 2 Type I certification as the platform scales. Current controls are aligned to SOC 2 Trust Services Criteria. Formal certification will follow as customer and enterprise procurement demands require it.
Data Privacy Statement: Customer logs are stored to support that customer's search, report generation, and AI-assisted investigation. Raw customer logs are not used for shared model training by default. Product improvements rely on minimized, sanitized, aggregated, or customer-opted-in data — in alignment with NIST data minimization guidance and SOC 2 data handling obligations.
