Security research across mobile platforms, product security, and applied AI
Orion Labs publishes technical research artifacts and methodologies designed to be useful to engineers and researchers—while remaining responsible about sensitive details.
Featured research
View allA sustained research program at Orion Labs producing two outputs together: a corpus of adversary-infrastructure analysis — roughly seventy signal bearers accumulated to date across compound fingerprints, technique classes, OPSEC patterns, cluster-shape signatures, and era-corrected attribution data — and the methodology, tooling, and analytical backend that makes the corpus possible. Current state human-led with AI assistance. Direction of travel a refined multi-agent system operating under the methodology as its discipline. The first dispatch in a new series.
Reproducing Citizen Lab and Lookout's 2016 Million Dollar Dissident infrastructure analysis with the 2026 connector stack: era-bound tool substitution, three previously-undisclosed NSO-attributed domains, and a V1 deployment 15 months earlier than the original disclosure documented.
A technical orientation to the Censys Platform as a threat intelligence primitive: scanning architecture, data model, historical data, the Threat Hunting Module, ASM, and CenQL.
