How to Secure Your Team's Tools from Hackers

🌐🤳 Imagine your server dialing a phone number to reach out to an attacker — that’s a 𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗲 𝘀𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗹. 🔎 Reverse shell attacks are cleverly hidden, highly effective, and often difficult to identify. This is why the Sysdig Threat Research Team is explaining these strategies, why conventional defenses often fail to catch them, and how advanced, behavior-driven detections can uncover even the subtlest breaches. Once you grasp how attackers navigate 𝘪𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘥𝘦 a system, you begin noticing signs where most tools usually overlook. 🚨 Learn more from Sysdig TRT 👉 https://okt.to/VeNqIE

In this video, team up with legendary hacker OTW to uncover how professionals actually use Wireshark the most powerful network analysis tool in cybersecurity. Together, we explore how hackers capture traffic, read encrypted packets, and trace real data moving through Wi-Fi and Ethernet connections. But this isn’t just about hacking — it’s about defense. You’ll learn how to recognize suspicious patterns, secure your own network, and understand how packet sniffing really works at a deep technical level. Whether you’re a cybersecurity student, ethical hacker, or just fascinated by how the internet really works, this episode will change the way you see digital communication forever.

Hackers don’t always break in with code—they break in with trust. 🚨 Learn how social engineering works and how to protect yourself from being the next victim! 🔐 Watch now and stay cyber-smart.

Maintaining Active Directory is complex, but certificate-based authentication is often overlooked compared to passwords. The result? Misconfigurations in Active Directory Certificate Services (ADCS) have created an ever-growing attack surface. The latest threat research from Cato CTRL led by Ofek Vardi from my team, breaks down privilege escalation techniques and outlines protections for enterprises. 💪👏 Learn more: https://bit.ly/4qqdyW2

I’ve gotten a few questions about the “security is free” line in my last post. Let me rephrase. It's not 'free'; it's a zero-cost abstraction. My operational model’s security is enforced at compile time, so there's no runtime performance penalty.

Did you know that your EDR could have blind spots that only Rubrik can help detect!? With Rubrik, you can look for multiple threats not only within active environments, but also within immutable backup data. Full story from Chris Mellor of Blocks and Files 👉 https://bit.ly/4nW0Sn7

#VMS #CyberDefense What is a Zero-Day Vulnerability? A zero-day vulnerability is a flaw in software or hardware that is unknown to the vendor, who has had "zero days" to fix it. Hackers can exploit this vulnerability to launch zero-day attacks before a patch is created, giving them a critical window of opportunity to steal data or cause damage. How it works Vulnerability discovery: An attacker finds a security flaw in a piece of software that the developer doesn't know about. Exploit development: The attacker creates a zero-day exploit, which is the method or code they use to take advantage of the vulnerability. Zero-day attack: The attacker uses the exploit in an attack before the software vendor has a chance to develop and release a patch. The race to fix: Once the vulnerability is discovered (either by the vendor or through the attack), a race begins to create and distribute a fix to protect users from further attacks. https://lnkd.in/efbaZMCM

Patching a technique doesn't always eliminate the threat vector. Case in point: BadSuccessor. While Microsoft addressed Yuval Gordon's original privilege escalation method, the broader dMSA abuse problem persists. Logan G. digs into why this matters for defenders, and introduces the new BadTakeover BOF and SharpSuccessor updates that demonstrate the technique's continued operational viability. If your team isn't monitoring for dMSA abuse, you've got a blind spot. Read the full breakdown and understand the lasting impact. https://ghst.ly/42POg9L

Most CISOs still measure success in patch counts and alerts. But your board doesn’t care about tickets closed — they care about risk reduced. Discover the 5 metrics that actually move the needle 👉 https://lnkd.in/eRCVZCPn

Gaetano Sapia's paper on Scaling Security Testing by Adressing the Reachability Gap has been accepted at #ICSE26! 📝 https://lnkd.in/eF_m--Wp 🧑💻 https://lnkd.in/ezs5imqw How to scale automatic security testing to arbitrary systems? 🧗 Manually writing fuzz drivers doesn't scale. 🚩 Auto-generating them gives false positives. 👩💻 Invivo fuzzing requires a user to configure the system and to execute the target component. 🤖 Can we substitute the user and auto-generate the configuration and the executions to amplify? Feel invited to read the paper to find out 🤠.
