DESIGN PARTNER PROGRAM
Help us shape Governed AdversarialExposure Validation .
A limited group of security organizations is working directly with the Hayrok team to prove what attackers can actually exploit — safely, under governance, with evidence at every step.
PROBLEMS WE WANT TO SOLVE TOGETHER
If your team is asking these questions, we should talk.
01 · VOLUME
Too many findings
Which vulnerabilities actually deserve engineering attention?
02 · EXPLOITABILITY
Is this finding really exploitable?
In our environment, with our defenses, at this moment.
03 · RUNTIME
Is the vulnerable component even active?
Present in the SBOM ≠ loaded in production.
04 · REACHABILITY
Can an attacker actually reach it?
From an entry point they can realistically obtain.
05 · CONTROLS
Would our controls stop it?
WAF · EDR · IAM · network · application.
06 · DETECTION
Would our SOC know it happened?
Fires · latency · misses. Prove the outcome.
07 · ATTACK PATH
Could it reach something critical?
Crown-jewel reachability, not modelled — validated.
08 · REMEDIATION
Did the fix actually remove the risk?
Ticket closed ≠ condition resolved.
09 · EVIDENCE
How do we prove the outcome?
To engineering, leadership, customers, and auditors.
WHAT YOU CAN VALIDATE
Start with the security outcome that matters most.
Design Partners don't need to deploy every Hayrok capability. We begin with one focused validation objective.
EXPOSURE01
Internet Exposure
Which public-facing assets create real attacker entry points.
RANSOMWARE02
Ransomware Readiness
Whether attacker progression bypasses defenses and reaches critical systems.
IDENTITY03
Identity Security
Privilege escalation, service accounts, identity-to-crown-jewel paths.
API04
API Security
Auth, authorization, gateway controls, detection, downstream reachability.
CLOUD05
Cloud Security
Public exposure, IAM relationships, workload reachability, control effectiveness.
DETECTION06
Detection Coverage
Whether expected alerts actually fire during controlled adversarial activity.
K8S07
Kubernetes Security
Cluster exposure, RBAC, service accounts, workload paths, runtime conditions.
SUPPLY CHAIN08
Supply Chain Security
Dependency, artifact, secret, and pipeline risks that reach production.
AI09
AI Security
AI apps, agents, prompts, tools, access controls, sensitive-data paths.
WHAT YOU GET
Early access with direct product influence.
Design Partners work with product, engineering, security, and leadership directly — not through a support queue.
01
Direct access to the Hayrok team
Product, engineering, security, and leadership — not a support queue.
02
Early product access
Selected Hayrok capabilities before broad commercial availability, where appropriate.
03
Influence the product roadmap
Workflows, validation objectives, evidence requirements, integrations, reports, enterprise controls.
04
Use-case design
Translate your security challenges into repeatable Hayrok validation scenarios.
05
Technical workshops
Architecture · integrations · telemetry · validation scope · evidence · governance · deployment.
06
Proof of value
Evaluate against defined security outcomes rather than generic feature usage.
07
Early commercial consideration
Qualified partners may receive preferred early-customer terms where separately agreed.
THE DESIGN PARTNER JOURNEY
A focused 60-day collaboration.
A standard engagement structure with flexibility for each customer's requirements.
PHASE 01DAYS 1–7
Discovery
Understand your workflow, tools, priority objective, assets, governance, evidence needs, and success criteria.
→ outcome: Success Plan
PHASE 02DAYS 7–14
Solution Design
Target assets, validation objective, scenarios, integrations, telemetry, safety controls, approvals, expected evidence.
→ outcome: Validation Blueprint
PHASE 03DAYS 14–21
Onboarding
Configure tenant, users, roles, assets, integrations, policies, runner, and telemetry connections.
→ outcome: Validation-ready environment
PHASE 04DAYS 21–42
Validate
Hayrok executes governed validation against authorized scope. Exploitability, runtime, reachability, controls, detection, paths.
→ outcome: Evidence-backed results
PHASE 05DAYS 42–52
Learn & Iterate
Structured feedback: workflow, recommendations, evidence, usability, integrations, governance, reporting.
→ outcome: Prioritized product feedback
PHASE 06DAYS 52–60
Revalidate & Review
Rerun original validation against remediated conditions. Compare results, review outcomes end to end.
→ outcome: Verified remediation
EXAMPLE ENGAGEMENT · API SECURITY
From 86 findings to 4 validated conditions.
A SaaS organization with hundreds of API findings — Hayrok Design Partner workflow, end to end.
SECURITY TEAM WANTS TO DETERMINE
→Which APIs are actually internet-accessible
→Which authorization weaknesses are exploitable
→Whether WAF & gateway controls respond
→Whether suspicious activity generates detections
→Whether affected APIs can reach customer data

Illustrative outcome. Actual Design Partner results depend on the customer environment and evidence observed.
GOVERNANCE COMES FIRST
Design Partner does not mean experimental security without controls.
Design Partner validation remains subject to Hayrok's security and governance model. No Design Partner engagement is a license for unrestricted testing.
!
Start safely, expand deliberately. Engagements may begin in a Hayrok demo, dev, test, staging, or authorized production scope. Production validation only occurs when appropriate governance, safety, authorization, and technical controls are satisfied.

DESIGN PARTNER APPLICATION
Tell us what you want to validate.
A two-stage application — not an intimidating enterprise questionnaire. Bring us a real security question; we'll work with you to determine whether Hayrok can help prove the answer.
01
Application review
We evaluate whether your use case aligns with the current program.
02
Discovery conversation
A working call with your security stakeholders.
03
Objective & scope
Define the security outcome and success criteria together.
04
Security & technical review
Architecture, integrations, data handling, deployment, governance.
05
Design Partner agreement
Commercial, confidentiality, privacy, authorization terms.
06
Begin the engagement
Onboard the team and start the agreed validation program.

DESIGN PARTNER FAQ
Common questions.
Is this a traditional beta program?+
No. The engagement is centered around defined security objectives and operational outcomes rather than simply providing early software access. Traditional beta asks "try our software and tell us what you think." We start with "what security outcome do you need to validate?" and work backward from that.
How long is the program?+
A typical initial Design Partner engagement is designed around approximately 60 days. Scope and timing may vary based on the use case.
Is the program free?+
Commercial terms may vary depending on the organization, scope, infrastructure requirements, and stage of the program. Any pricing or incentives are agreed separately.
Do we need to deploy Hayrok into production?+
No. The appropriate starting environment depends on the use case. Engagements may begin with a controlled lab, dev, staging, or another authorized environment.
Can Hayrok perform production validation?+
Where supported, production validation requires appropriate authorization, scope, policy, safety controls, and applicable approvals.
Can we influence the roadmap?+
Yes. Design Partner feedback is intended to materially inform product priorities, though participation does not guarantee that every requested capability will be built.
Will our company be publicly named as a Design Partner?+
Not without separate authorization. Your security findings are not marketing content. Any public use — company name, logo, findings, architecture, quotes — requires separate written approval, reflected contractually in the Design Partner agreement.
Who owns our security data?+
The relationship between customer data and Hayrok is governed by applicable contractual and data-processing terms. Participation in the Design Partner Program does not give Hayrok unrestricted rights to customer security data.
Can our legal and security teams review Hayrok first?+
Yes. Qualified organizations can access applicable security, architecture, privacy, and contractual information during evaluation.
WHILE YOU WAIT
Explore Hayrok on your own time.
More findings than proof? More assumptions than validation? More closed tickets than verified fixes?
Bring us a real security question. We'll work with you to determine whether Hayrok can help prove the answer.
