From Exposed .git Repo to Full Database Access: How a Tiny Misstep Triggered a Major Security Risk

by

In the realm of cybersecurity, small misconfigurations often have disproportionately catastrophic consequences. One seemingly minor oversight – an unintentionally exposed .git repository – can serve as the ignition point for a full-blown data breach. In this post, we will walk through a real-world example where an exposed .git repo led to authentication bypass, blind SQL injection, and eventually full database access at a university.
This case study is designed for Penetration Testers and C-Suite Executives alike, offering critical lessons on risk mitigation, business impact, and the ROI of proactive security measures.

How a Tiny Detail Led to Remote Code Execution: A Wake-Up Call for Business and Security Leaders

For C-Suite leaders and penetration testers alike, it is essential to understand that attackers do not need a thousand mistakes to breach your network; they need just one. Every application component, every dependency, and every piece of exposed metadata is a potential foothold.
What we uncovered during this assessment is a textbook example of how modern attack chains are built — not through brute force, but through precision and patience.

Silent Sabotage on Local Networks: Understanding and Mitigating NBNS Spoofing Risks

by

NetBIOS (Network Basic Input/Output System) was developed in the 1980s to enable applications on different computers to communicate over local area networks (LANs). A component of this suite, NetBIOS Name Service (NBNS), assists in the name resolution process when traditional DNS mechanisms are either misconfigured or unavailable.

Beyond Compliance: How Continuous Pentesting Uncovers Hidden Security Gaps and Strengthens Cyber Resilience

by

In today’s threat-laden digital landscape, the saying, “You don’t know what you don’t know,” is especially true in cybersecurity. Penetration testing (pentesting) is the antidote to this uncertainty. After analysing tens of thousands of network assessments across industries and geographies, one conclusion becomes inescapable: most security gaps are not the result of sophisticated nation-state exploits, but simple, preventable oversights. For C-Suite executives tasked with safeguarding their organisations, understanding what pentesting truly reveals is not just a compliance necessity—it’s a strategic imperative.
