17 industry verticals: Finance, Healthcare, NHS, Government, Energy, Pharma, Space. Live at shield.red-specter.co.uk.

Runtime Agent Protection: 177 defensive modules deployed as Docker containers. Detects prompt injection, goal drift, lateral movement, and swarm manipulation in under 2ms. Module 99 Doomsday Protocol provides a cryptographically authorised kill switch — Ed25519 signed, court-ready evidence chain.
Offensive Validation Suite: 166 offensive tools built specifically for AI agent security — the attack surface that Kali and Parrot don't cover. 104,417 ecosystem tests validate every defensive module. We built the weapons to prove the shield works.
17 Industry Verticals: Finance, Healthcare, NHS Digital, Government, Energy, Pharma, Sovereign and more. Each vertical is a pre-configured Docker stack with sector-specific compliance mapping — MiFID II, FCA, DCB0129, NERC CIP, GAMP 5.
Compliance Coverage: OWASP LLM 10/10 | OWASP Agentic 10/10 | EU AI Act 15/15 | UK AISI 13/13 | MITRE ATLAS 100%. Runtime enforcement, not just documentation. EU AI Act Article 14 kill switch compliant out of the box.
