Apona equips government agencies with innovative cybersecurity solutions designed to safeguard networks, applications, embedded systems, and the software supply chain. Its two flagship solutions-Penzzer and Labrador Labs-provide government organizations with proactive testing and visibility required to reduce OSS risk and meet compliance needs.
Penzzer is a fuzzing and penetration testing tool that's built to uncover vulnerabilities in the protocols and services powering mission-critical activities. Government networks depend on a wide range of technologies-IPv4/IPv6, SSL/TLS, SSH, DNS, HTTP/FTP/TFTP, SNMP, MQTT, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Modbus, and CANbus-all of which are ripe targets when misconfigured or insecurely deployed. Penzzer uses protocol-aware fuzzing and penetraation testing similar to an attacker in order to identify parsing bugs, state machine bugs, and insecure defaults, which are not found by general scans. From ARP cache poisoning and SSL/TLS downgrade attacks to CANbus manipulation in transport networks, Penzzer helps agencies find vulnerabilities before weaponization. Outputs are delivered with steps to reproduce and remediation recommendations, enhancing implementations such as NIST SSDF and CMMC.
Labrador Labs complements Penzzer by addressing software supply chain risk. Its SCA and SBOM generation offer unmatched accuracy through patented three-layer vulnerability detection. This allows agencies to detect risk at the function, file, and component level with near-zero false positives. Labrador also automates license compliance, generates SBOMs in international standards such as SPDX and CycloneDX, and integrates into internal systems for better governance. These capabilities directly influence Executive Order 14028 and emerging SBOM requirements in defense, healthcare, and critical infrastructure.
