Tackling Cloud Security Challenges
Aviv Cohen
05 Mar 2024
Cloud security cannot run on assumptions because cloud environments change too quickly and expose too many paths to risk. Traditional pentesting alone cannot keep pace with that speed or complexity. Continuous, automated cloud validation is what gives organizations real confidence in their defenses.

Protecting Against Ivanti Zero-Day Vulnerabilities
Dana Meschiany
07 Feb 2024
The Ivanti zero-days showed how quickly an exposed access platform can become a launchpad for full network compromise. The real danger is not just initial exploitation, but the attacker’s ability to escalate privileges, move laterally, and reach sensitive systems. Organizations need to validate both exploitability and downstream impact, then confirm...

4 Steps to Knowing Your Exploitable Attack Surface
Yuval Lazar
17 Jan 2024
Security teams are overwhelmed by volume, but volume is not the real problem—context is. The priority is not to chase every vulnerability, but to identify which weaknesses are actually exploitable and could lead to meaningful business impact. That is where continuous, adversary-focused validation makes the biggest difference.

Cyber Attack Lessons 2024: Key Takeaways for Security Teams
Dana Meschiany
04 Jan 2024
The biggest lesson from 2024 is that attackers keep finding value in the gaps between visibility and validation. It is not enough to know a vulnerability exists - security teams need to understand how it can actually be exploited and what business impact it creates. Organizations that validate real attack...

How to attack and protect WebLogic server
Amit German
05 Dec 2023
WebLogic remains a high-value target because a compromise can quickly extend from the middleware layer into sensitive applications, data, and administrative control. When attackers gain access, the risk is not limited to one server—it can become a persistent foothold across critical business systems. That is why fast patching, strong credential...

Embracing a Hacker Mindset for Better Cyber Defense
Pentera Team
20 Nov 2023
Modern attackers do not think in isolated vulnerabilities—they think in pathways to impact. Security teams that adopt that same mindset can prioritize the weaknesses that truly matter, validate whether controls actually work, and reduce risk more effectively. In today’s environment, thinking like a hacker is no longer optional; it is...

Business Risk as a Guide for Cybersecurity Remediation
Michal Brenner
07 Nov 2023
Attack surface growth has made traditional defense-in-depth harder to manage and harder to prioritize. What matters now is not seeing more alerts, but knowing which exposures can actually lead to business impact. That is why exposure management and continuous security validation are becoming essential to modern cyber defense.

The Shift from Port 445 to Port 135 in Cybersecurity
Yuval Lazar
13 Sep 2023
PsExec shows how legitimate administrative tools can become highly effective attack mechanisms when abused by adversaries. The danger is not just the tool itself, but the trusted protocols and ports that allow remote execution and lateral movement to blend into normal operations. Organizations need to monitor these pathways closely and...

Managing Legacy Infrastructure for Security
Pentera Team
03 Sep 2023
Legacy technology becomes risky when business dependence grows faster than security maturity. The most effective way to drive action is to translate technical debt into business impact—operational disruption, compliance risk, financial exposure, and reputational damage. Continuous security validation helps security leaders prove that risk with evidence, not assumptions.

Risks of LOLBAS in Security
Nir Chako
03 Aug 2023
LOLBAS attacks are dangerous because they turn trusted system tools into covert attack mechanisms, making malicious activity look legitimate. That makes detection far harder and gives attackers a stealthy path to download payloads, execute code, and move without raising the right alarms. Organizations need stronger visibility, behavioral detection, and continuous...

Securing Neglected Network Protocols
Pentera Team
13 Jul 2023
Protocols that are often treated as low risk can still provide attackers with valuable reconnaissance and man-in-the-middle opportunities inside the network. The danger is not just in the protocol itself, but in how easily overlooked traffic can be abused for discovery, spoofing, and lateral movement. Organizations need deeper internal visibility...

Penetration Testing Trends: A 2023 Perspective
Pentera Team
07 Jun 2023
Penetration testing is no longer just a compliance checkbox - it is becoming a strategic measure of how well security controls perform under real-world conditions. As attack frequency rises and environments change faster, organizations need more continuous and scalable ways to validate their defenses without disrupting the business. That is...
