 Shannon closes that gap by providing on-demand, automated penetration testing that can run against every build or release.
 
+### Why "Shannon"?
+
+It's named after Claude Shannon, the father of information theory. At its core, pentesting is an information problem: every probe reduces uncertainty about a system's state. The best tools maximize the signal gained from every request, turning those bits of knowledge into an exploit path.
