Why did the hacker break up with their partner on Halloween? Because they found too many "cookies" in their browser! ???? #happyhalloween #cyberjokes #dadjokes Photo by Toa Heftiba on Unsplash

I don't need a password to bypass your authentication. Check out my writeup on an easy web application CTF challenge I created for the Secure Delaware CTF! Key takeaways: You don’t always need to know the username or password to gain access to a web app, and remember that encoding is NOT encryption! It was awesome to flex Exploit Strike and connect with the infosec community across Delaware, Maryland, and Pennsylvania! Thank you Kaoru Katayama, Todd Janssen, Sara Novocin, MBA, Andy Novocin, Daniel Li and SANJAY SIDDHARTH CV for your efforts yesterday! #SecDE24

Have you ever been involved in pro bono work or a project where the focus was more on impact than profit? Exploit Strike's origins trace back to Kaoru Katayama and Andy Novocin, who led a team from the University of Delaware in providing pro bono cybersecurity services to small and medium-sized businesses—even those on Main Street. This initiative not only delivered immense value to local businesses closest to home but also offered exceptional mentorship and growth opportunities for the students involved. What kind of work has given you that same kind of fulfillment?

If hackers are the uninvited guests, consider penetration testing your bouncer at the door. Penetration testing, or "pentesting," is a process where cybersecurity professionals simulate attacks on your systems to identify vulnerabilities. The goal is simple: find the weak points before someone else does. Unlike regular security assessments, pentesting goes beyond scanning for known vulnerabilities. It mimics the strategies and tactics used by real-world attackers. **Why It Matters:** Every business, regardless of size, is a target. Cyber threats are not hypothetical—they are a daily reality. A breach can lead to financial losses, damaged reputation, and regulatory penalties. Penetration testing is your proactive defense. By identifying and addressing vulnerabilities, you minimize the risk of an attack. **Penetration Testing vs. Other Security Assessments:** Security assessments often rely on automated tools to identify known vulnerabilities. While useful, these assessments can miss critical weaknesses. Penetration testing involves a human element—skilled professionals who think like attackers. This approach uncovers vulnerabilities that automated tools often overlook, providing a more comprehensive understanding of your security posture. **Why Choose Exploit Strike?** At Exploit Strike, we specialize in penetration testing. Our team consists of seasoned professionals who have been in the trenches, understanding how attackers operate. We don’t just find vulnerabilities; we help you understand them and guide you on how to fix them. Penetration testing is not a one-time fix. It’s an ongoing process that should be part of your overall security strategy. Regular testing ensures that as your business evolves, your defenses evolve with it. Don’t wait for an attack to happen. Be proactive and let Exploit Strike help you secure your assets.
