Meet the Team
ZYPHERON was built by someone who understands both sides: how software is built, and how it breaks.
Harrison McCall
Founder & CEO
Started as a backend dev writing C++, Python, and Go until I got tired of seeing the same security bugs show up in production. Switched to offensive security because the best way to build secure systems is to know how to break them. Spent time freelancing in security research, breaking into things professionally, and realized most pentesting tools were either clunky as hell or wanted to phone home with all your recon data.
Built ZYPHERON because I needed AI to handle the repetitive recon work without compromising OPSEC. No cloud dependencies, no telemetry, no sending your target data to someone else's API. What started as a personal tool to speed up my own workflows became a platform for pentesters who want AI augmentation without giving up control. Ship fast, stay paranoid, automate the boring stuff.
Background
Why a Solo Founder?
ZYPHERON is intentionally lean. No bloated teams, no VC pressure to compromise on privacy, no corporate politics slowing down development. Just focused, rapid iteration on tools that security professionals actually need.
Every feature ships because it solves a real problem. Every decision is made with users in mind, not investors. That's the advantage of building independently.
Join the Mission
ZYPHERON is growing. Whether you're a security researcher, developer, or just passionate about building better security tools, there are ways to contribute.
