eBPF lets you instrument the Linux kernel in real time — catching reverse shells, privilege escalation, and fileless attacks before they complete. Here are two concrete examples using bpftrace and Falco you can run on a production host today.
LLMs have turned phishing from a craft into an automated pipeline. See how attackers orchestrate personalized lures at scale, and learn two practical techniques — with real code — to detect AI-generated phishing before it reaches your users.
Ghidra turns stripped CTF binaries into readable C pseudocode in seconds. This walkthrough covers two real challenge types — hardcoded flag comparison and XOR obfuscation — with actual decompiler output and the Python one-liners to solve them.
Wireshark is the fastest way to prove what actually happened on your network after an incident. This guide walks through three forensic techniques — beaconing detection, credential extraction, and traffic timeline analysis — with real filters and packet output you can use right now.
Volt Typhoon sat undetected for five years using disciplined C2 tradecraft. Here’s how attackers use beaconing, scheduled tasks, and hidden binaries to maintain persistence — and the exact commands defenders use to find them.
WAFs block the obvious payloads — not the crafted ones. This post breaks down inline comment fragmentation and time-based blind injection with real sqlmap commands and outputs, plus a quick WAF fingerprinting step that shapes your whole attack approach.
In 2026, attackers are chaining Entra ID service principal misconfigurations with federated identity credential persistence — no malware required. This post walks through real reconnaissance, post-auth Graph abuse, and a stealthy persistence technique defenders are still missing.
CVE-2024-1086 showed that a single use-after-free in netfilter hands local attackers a root shell. Before you can defend against Linux kernel exploitation, you need to see your attack surface the same way an attacker does — here is how to map it fast.
A $47 million deepfake wire fraud in 2026 proved synthetic humans are now a real enterprise attack vector. This guide walks through real CLI and Python-based detection methods — with actual tool output — plus three process controls that make deepfake fraud structurally harder to pull off.
Methodology beats intuition in forensics CTFs — every time. This post walks through file identification and memory dump analysis with real commands and tool output, so you know exactly where to look and what to do next.
Metasploit turns complex exploit research into repeatable operations — and understanding it is essential for any penetration tester. This guide walks from first search to post-exploitation pivoting, with real commands and output at every step.
A 2025 RAT campaign hid its C2 address in a plain string table — analysts found it in Ghidra in under five minutes. This beginner guide walks you through the exact workflow: importing a sample, finding the callback function, and identifying persistence mechanisms with real decompiler output.
