Red Teaming - comprehensive attack simulation. Methodology and tools

Source: Acunetix Red Teaming (the 'red team' attack) involves a comprehensive simulation of real attacks to assess the cybersecurity of systems. The 'red team' consists of a group of pentesters (professionals performing penetration tests). They can be either hired externally or be employees of your organization, but in all cases, their role is the same — to simulate the actions of attackers and […]

Using AI for supercompressing images

Data-driven algorithms, such as neural networks, have taken the world by storm. Their development is driven by several factors, including affordable and powerful hardware and vast amounts of data.

And generally, oversight of the financial system is structured in such a way […]

Where do logs come from? Veeam Log Diving

Let's continue our dive into the fascinating world of troubleshooting logs. In the previous article, we agreed on the meanings of basic terms and took a quick look at the overall structure of Veeam as a single application. The task now is to figure out how log files are generated, what information they contain, and why they look the way they do. What do you think they actually […]

Veeam Log Diving: Components and Glossary

At Veeam, we love logs. Since most of our solutions are modular, they generate quite a lot of logs. Given that our field is ensuring the safety of your data (i.e., giving you peace of mind), the logs must not only record every detail but do so with considerable depth. This is necessary so that in case of any issues, it's clear how to address them […]

4. FortiAnalyzer Getting Started v6.4. Working with Reports

Hello, friends! In our last lesson, we explored the basics of working with logs on FortiAnalyzer. Today, we’ll delve deeper into the main aspects of working with reports: what reports entail, what they consist of, how to edit existing reports, and how to create new ones. As usual, we'll start with a bit of theory, and then we'll get hands-on with the reports. As […]

Why the serverless revolution hit a dead end

Key Points For several years now, we have been promised that serverless computing will usher in a new era without a specific OS for running applications. We were told that such a structure would solve many scalability problems. In reality, it's quite the opposite. Although many consider serverless technology to be a new idea, its roots can be traced back to 2006, when Zimki PaaS emerged […]

Decoding Key and Page WaitResource in deadlocks and locks

If you use the blocked process report or gather deadlock graphs provided by SQL Server periodically, you will encounter examples such as: waitresource="PAGE: 6:3:70133" waitresource="KEY: 6:72057594041991168 (ce52f92a058c)" Sometimes, in that massive XML you are analyzing, you will find more information (deadlock graphs contain a list of resources that help identify object and index names), but not always. […]
