How to reach us.
Fastest way to start a conversation. We respond same-day for scoping queries, near-real-time when something's on fire.
For longer briefs or async scoping. Include rough scope, timeline, and any compliance context.
Encrypted email
For sensitive briefs, incident triage, or coordinated vulnerability disclosure. PGP key on request.
What to include
A few details help.
None of this is mandatory — but the more we know up front, the more useful the discovery call is. Nothing here is asked for in a way you wouldn't volunteer to any other consultant.
- Company size, industry, and rough tech stack
- What you’re trying to accomplish (pre-launch audit, compliance, recurring engagement, ongoing retainer)
- Rough timeline and any hard dates
- Compliance frameworks in scope (SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, HIPAA, DPDP)
- Whether there is an existing incident or this is preventive work

Reach us by the fastest channel — email ir@8bytes.in with "ACTIVE" in the subject, or DM on WhatsApp. Retainer clients have a guaranteed 1-hour senior-responder SLA. Non-retainer is best-effort and we will be honest about what we can do; if we cannot respond fast enough, we will name people who can.
