About
Connected products ship out of Shenzhen at scale. Many of those products carry IoT, automotive, robotics, or LLM components whose security posture was set during R&D and never re-examined under realistic adversarial pressure. Melina assesses those products before adversaries do. The founding team brings international offensive-security research experience, works bilingually in English and 中文, and is set up to handle the China-specific regulatory frame that overseas firms typically cannot.
Headquartered in Shenzhen, Guangdong. Engagements span Greater China, Southeast Asia, EU, and North America. Regulated work (MLPS-tier infrastructure, certain CII-classified systems) runs in collaboration with licensed local entities.
Four engagement models — Fixed Package, Scoped Assessment, Custom Engagement, Retainer — match scope clarity and frequency. Methodology is locked at six stages across every engagement.
