About Quinine Cybersecurity

The company behind Q9 Continuous, based in Canary Wharf.

Quinine Cybersecurity builds Q9 Continuous, a continuous AI penetration testing product for organisations building and deploying large language models, retrieval-augmented generation and AI agents. Q9 Continuous runs AI-driven tests, and every finding is reviewed by a person before it is reported, so risks are found before attackers find them.

01Mission

Close the gap between how fast AI ships and how well it is secured.

Models ship fast, security comes later, and the gap keeps growing. Quinine Cybersecurity exists to close that gap.

We build Q9 Continuous for companies that take their AI deployments seriously. Organisations are shipping LLMs into production chatbots, knowledge systems and decision engines without understanding the attack surface they’re creating. That gap is where breaches happen, and it is what Q9 Continuous tests.

02Expertise

What Q9 Continuous focuses on.

Q9 Continuous is built for the security of AI systems: the models, the data they reach and the infrastructure around them.

  • E.01LLM applicationsPrompt injection, jailbreaks, system prompt extraction, data leakage and output manipulation.
  • E.02Retrieval pipelinesDocument access, embedding poisoning, filter bypass and knowledge base isolation in RAG systems.
  • E.03Agentic AITool misuse, delegated permissions and trust between agents. Coverage is confirmed during scoping.
  • E.04AI-connected infrastructureThe APIs and endpoints that connect AI to your business. Coverage is confirmed during scoping.
  • E.05Framework mappingFindings mapped to the OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications, MITRE ATLAS, NIST AI RMF and related frameworks.
  • E.06Continuity of evidenceRe-testing with Q9 Continuous AI Pen Testing, change monitoring with Q9 Driftmark (early access) and verifiable proof.

03Founder & leadership

The founder

Chinmay Khuspare, Founder and CEO of Quinine Cybersecurity

Chinmay Khuspare

Founder & CEO

I am an MSc Cybersecurity postgraduate from NCSC-certified Lancaster University. I built Quinine Cybersecurity because I saw the same pattern across every organisation deploying AI: the models shipped fast, the security came later, and the gap kept growing. Quinine exists to close that gap. We provide hands-on AI security testing for companies that take their AI deployments seriously.

04How we work

Authorised, AI-driven and human-reviewed.

Our approach

Application-specific
We scope around your models, interfaces, tools and data boundaries, not a generic checklist.
Authorised by design
Nothing is tested without written authorisation from the people responsible for the system.
Human-reviewed
Findings are reviewed by people before they reach you, with severity, context and limitations.
Evidence before claims
We say what was tested, when and how. A report or proof is never presented as a guarantee of security.

05Company & product

A product company with people reviewing every finding.

Quinine Cybersecurity builds Q9 Continuous, a continuous AI penetration testing product supported by human-reviewed security testing: the one-week Q9 Continuous Diagnostic, ongoing Q9 Continuous AI Pen Testing, Q9 Driftmark (early access) and public verification of approved proofs.
