We think like the attacker.
CoreRecon is a cybersecurity team for organizations that need more than an IT vendor with a security add-on. We bring an attacker-minded point of view to exposure, detection, response, and the hardening that follows.
Built in Texas. Focused on the fight.
CoreRecon is based in Corpus Christi, Texas, and led by John Martinez, CEO & Founder. John is a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, and the CoreRecon team is made up of three veterans who worked in cybersecurity before building this company.
That background informs the way we show up: direct, accountable, and prepared for the moment when a suspicious signal becomes a business problem. Our existing work includes serving as an AT&T vendor for State of Texas incident response and publicly credited cyber-attack recovery work for the City of Carrollton.
A Texas home base for a team that understands the organizations and operating realities we protect.
A cybersecurity team shaped by service, analysis, and operational discipline.
Existing incident-response vendor experience through AT&T.
CEO & Founder, U.S. Marine Corps veteran, and the accountable point of contact.
Cybersecurity is the mission. Not a line item.
CoreRecon is cybersecurity-first. We are not a generalist IT or break-fix company that added security to the menu. Security is the work: understanding how an environment can be reached, how an adversary can move, and what has to happen to stop the outcome.
That focus lets us meet clients where they are without pretending that a checklist is a defense. We connect monitoring, incident response, compliance, and practical remediation around the risks that matter to the organization.
- Lead with security outcomes, not a catalog of unrelated IT services.
- Translate technical exposure into decisions leaders and operators can act on.
- Stay accountable from the first finding through containment and hardening.
An attacker-minded service model
Exposure
Map what is reachable, misconfigured, over-privileged, or simply overlooked before an attacker maps it for you.
Detection
Turn the signals that matter into useful visibility, with context around identity, assets, behavior, and impact.
Containment
When something is active, move with clarity: establish scope, limit spread, and protect the business decision by decision.
Hardening
Use what the incident or assessment teaches you to close the path, improve resilience, and raise the baseline.
Find the path in before someone else does.
