About Cyphire


Our Story: A Legacy of Cybersecurity Excellence
You’re probably wondering why we’ve featured a grainy photo here. That’s not just any picture—it’s a moment of triumph. The person in that photo is our founder and lead consultant, JC de Arriba, captured during one of the most prestigious cybersecurity competitions in the world: the 2011 Defcon Capture the Flag (CTF) Finals in Las Vegas. As the Founder of Team PainSec, he led his team to an impressive Top 10 finish, beating
over 400 teams worldwide.
This isn’t just a photo; it’s a testament to JC’s technical prowess, leadership, and commitment to solving the toughest security challenges. That same passion and expertise that led him to Defcon now drives Cyphire’s mission:
From Building Teams to
Building Solutions
JC’s exceptional performance at Defcon didn’t just earn him recognition—it earned him the opportunity to join Foreground Security, a government contractor later acquired by Raytheon. There, he was tasked with building their penetration testing team from scratch, a responsibility he fulfilled with exceptional results. This role showcased his ability to align technical expertise with organizational goals, creating scalable security solutions for critical systems.
After his success at Foreground, JC went on to work for some of the most prestigious cybersecurity consulting firms in the US, including Accuvant, Optiv (where he supported Apple during a 1-year staff augmentation), nVisium, and Guidepoint Security. Through these roles, he gained a wealth of experience working with global enterprises, government agencies, and fast-growing businesses, refining his ability to meet diverse security needs.

Key Differentiators
No Russian Roulette
When hiring a big consulting firm, you don’t know if you’ll get a senior expert or a junior tester. With Cyphire, you are guaranteed seasoned professionals leading your engagement.
Experts from Start to Finish
With big consulting firms, sales teams often lack technical expertise and may sell both products and services without fully understanding them. At Cyphire, you work with experienced security professionals from the first conversation to project delivery -no sales fluff, no middlemen.
Manual Testing Over Automation
Many big firms over-rely on automated tools. We conduct deep, hands-on penetration testing to uncover real-world security risks that automation alone misses.
Faster Service
Large firms often take weeks or months to deliver results. We provide high-quality penetration test reports with clear remediation guidance on a faster timeline, without bureaucratic delays.
True Cost-Effectiveness
We are not the cheapest option, but you get premium service without the excessive costs of large firms. Our streamlined operations and low overhead allow us to offer high-value security assessments at a more reasonable rate.
Services Tailored to Needs and Goals
Whether you need a security assessment for compliance (PCI-DSS, HIPAA, ISO 27001, SOC2), improving security posture, or a third-party requested audit, we customize our approach to fit your exact requirements.
