Mascot
The fox is friendly on purpose
A cartoon fox running an intelligence agency should not make sense, and yet here we are. The staff picked it for exactly that reason.
Same ten paths in every placement. Only the fill changes.
Why a fox, and why friendly?
Marketing has enough wolves. The fox is the one that works out where the food is, gets there first, and does not need to make a scene about it. That is closer to what we actually sell: reconnaissance and timing, not volume.
Friendly matters because the alternative is exhausting. There is plenty of smugness in this industry already. The fox grins, does the work, and lets the results do the talking. You will get used to the grin.
What is actually in the mark?
The mark is a side profile with a circuit-board neck, which is the honest summary of the company: something warm on the outside, wiring underneath. The chin is slate rather than orange, and that one detail is what stops it reading as a generic cartoon animal.

Using the fox
Do
- Draw it from the vector source in
/brand/. - Give it clear space of at least half its own height.

Don't
- Rebuild it from a screenshot or a raster export.
- Stretch, outline, or add a shadow to it.
- Recolour it outside the three brand fills.
