Where Immersive’s Cyber Expertise Comes to Life

Container 7 is Immersive’s home for technical research, threat intelligence, and expert-led insight. It’s where our most experienced practitioners—leaders in offensive and defensive security, cloud, application security, and cyber threat intelligence—come together to share discoveries, publish responsible disclosures, and explore the latest adversary techniques.

The name is part of our story. Immersive was founded in a converted shipping container—
number 7—at the Engine Shed innovation hub in Bristol. Container 7 reflects that origin: agile, expert, and grounded in real-world cyber experience.
