Quiet protection for the machines you actually use.
Hawksnest builds consumer-grade malware defense and security utilities. Our flagship, Security Hawk, is being designed as a focused, no-nonsense malware protection and eradication tool — with a small product family in research, testing, and pre-release.
A focused line, built one tool at a time.

A focused line, built one tool at a time.
We are deliberately small. Each product targets one threat class or workflow, ships when it is ready, and earns its place on a customer's machine.

MapMe
A consumer privacy / location utility, in early product research.
Four disciplines, one workshop.
How we work. Each function feeds the next, so the products that ship are products we would put on our own machines.
R
Research
We track what is actually happening to consumer devices, common malware families, deceptive installers, and the tactics that make them work.
A
Analysis
Suspicious samples are taken apart in a controlled environment so we understand exactly what each one does before we decide how to handle it.
T
Testing
Every detection and remediation step is exercised against representative threats and clean systems alike before it reaches a release candidate.
I
Inovation
When existing approaches fall short, we build the tool we wish existed — quietly, and only when the problem is worth solving.
WHY IT MATTERS
Consumer security software shouldn't fight the user.
Most home machines run protection that is loud, intrusive, and built to upsell. We think a security tool should be the opposite: quiet when there is nothing to do, clear when there is, and honest about what it can and cannot see.
Hawksnest exists to make that kind of software for ordinary people, not enterprise fleets. Same machines you use to do your taxes, run your business, and talk to your family. They deserve a real defender.
DESIGN PRINCIPLES
01.
Quiet by default. Loud only when something is actually wrong.
02.
Honest about scope. We say what we do and what we don't.
03.
Light on the machine. Performance is a feature.
04.
Plainspoken. No marketing words pretending to be product features.
