Pakistan’s security industry gathered at the Marriott Hotel on September 10th for Citadel ’26, an event co-powered by Titanium, RedSecLabs, and RapidCompute built around the theme “Securing the AI-Powered Enterprise — The New CISO Playbook for 2026.” The afternoon combined a lineup of offensive-security talks with the first public reveals of three security products.
Offensive security takes center stage
Rafay Baloch, CEO of RedSecLabs, opened proceedings with a session on the shifting landscape of offensive security, addressing how automation and AI are reshaping the discipline and arguing that continuous exposure testing is fast becoming standard practice rather than an optional add-on for enterprises.
Ubaid Jafri, Head of Cyber Defense & Offensive Security at Habib Bank Limited, followed with a session built around using offensive security and AI to anticipate a breach before it occurs, framing the idea as a practical signal security teams can act on rather than a theoretical exercise.
Mehzad Sahar, Group CISO at Engro, closed out the speaker lineup with a session on the day-to-day realities of leading a security function as the threat landscape shifts under the influence of AI.
Three products make their debut
The event also served as the reveal venue for three security products — two new offerings from Titanium, and a platform RedSecLabs brought to this market with a customer testimonial behind it.
Ammad Ali, Deputy CTO at RapidCompute, introduced CodeRadar, a continuous vulnerability-scanning product. According to the presentation, each scan runs on a single-use virtual machine provisioned inside the customer’s own cloud account rather than on shared infrastructure, with the machine and any data on it destroyed once the scan is complete — an architecture positioned as leaving nothing for an attacker to retrieve even if the scanning tool itself were compromised.
Imtiaz Khan, CTO at RapidCompute, presented SNTRII, a SIEM offering aimed at organizations that have so far had to choose between paying for enterprise-grade security tooling or going without dedicated monitoring altogether. Khan noted that additional capabilities for the product remain in development ahead of a full release.
Hashim Mufti, presenting on behalf of RedSecLabs, introduced Guardian Gaze, a platform that continuously rates an organization’s external cyber-risk — assessing brand, domain, application, network, cloud, and compliance exposure from the same outside vantage point an attacker would have.
Farhan Mustafa, SVP Sales at Rapid and Titanium, rounded out the session with an overview of Titanium’s broader security portfolio, tracing its expansion since the practice was first established in 2017.
Organizers position Citadel as a recurring fixture
According to the organizers, Citadel ’26 is intended to be the first instance of a standing industry gathering rather than a one-time launch event, with Titanium and RedSecLabs framing the collaboration as an ongoing one.
