Continue reading →: The Surge in SSRF Exploitation: Why It Appears CoordinatedIntroduction On March 9, 2025, cybersecurity researchers at GreyNoise observed a surge in Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) attacks, with over 400 unique IP addresses exploiting multiple known vulnerabilities across widely used platforms. The scale and precision of this attack suggest that it was not a random event but a coordinated…

Continue reading →: Adversary-in-the-Middle: DHCP SpoofingThe Subtle Subversion of Network Trust The architecture of modern networks is built upon implicit trust. Devices assume the legitimacy of fundamental network services, rarely questioning the authenticity of information received. This trust is precisely what adversaries exploit in DHCP spoofing attacks, a deceptive and potent form of adversary-in-the-middle (AiTM)…

Continue reading →: Adversary-in-the-Middle: ARP Cache PoisoningThe Invisible Interceptor in Network Traffic The battleground of modern cybersecurity is not limited to sophisticated zero-days or high-profile ransomware campaigns. Often, the simplest attacks are the most effective, exploiting foundational weaknesses within protocols that were never designed with security in mind. One such vulnerability—Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) cache poisoning—epitomizes…

Continue reading →: Adversary-in-the-Middle: Name Service Poisoning AttackThe Unseen Hand Manipulating Your Network Modern enterprise networks, despite their hardened perimeters, often harbor legacy weaknesses that attackers eagerly exploit. Among these vulnerabilities, Link-Local Multicast Name Resolution (LLMNR) and NetBIOS Name Service (NBT-NS) poisoning stand out as prime enablers of adversary-in-the-middle (AiTM) attacks. These weaknesses, exacerbated by outdated protocol…

Continue reading →: A Deep Dive into OWASP Dependency-Check and CycloneDXIntroduction Software security has become a cornerstone of modern development, particularly as applications increasingly rely on third-party dependencies. Many high-profile security breaches have stemmed from vulnerabilities in open-source libraries and third-party components. OWASP Dependency-Check is a powerful tool designed to mitigate such risks by performing Software Composition Analysis (SCA), identifying…

Continue reading →: Enhancing Security in CI/CD Pipelines with DevSecOpsIntroduction As organizations accelerate software delivery, security must evolve alongside speed and automation. The rapid deployment of applications, cloud-native environments, and an increasing reliance on third-party dependencies have expanded the attack surface, making traditional security approaches insufficient. DevSecOps emerges as the essential paradigm, ensuring that security is an intrinsic part…

Continue reading →: The Silent Heist – Clipper MalwareThe Attacker’s Perspective: Exploiting Human Trust and Digital Habits Cryptocurrency transactions are built on trustless systems, yet users themselves remain inherently vulnerable. The beauty of Clipper malware lies in its simplicity—it does not need to break cryptographic security or engage in elaborate deception. Instead, it preys on human oversight, the…

Continue reading →: Understanding SSRF: Server-Side Request ForgeryIntroduction As web applications grow in complexity, so do the security threats that target them. One particularly insidious attack vector that continues to gain traction is Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF). Unlike conventional web exploits that typically involve user-side vulnerabilities, SSRF manipulates server-side logic to make unauthorized requests to internal or…
Hello,
I’m Rinzl3r
Hello! I’m Matthew, an experienced engineer at Decian, a leading Managed Service Provider (MSP) dedicated to revolutionizing IT solutions for businesses. With a passion for technology and a wealth of experience in the MSP industry, I’ve embarked on a journey to demystify the world of managed services through this blog.
My career at Decian has been a journey of constant learning and growth. Over the years, I’ve honed my skills in various aspects of IT management, from network security and cloud services to data analytics and cybersecurity. Working in an environment that fosters innovation and customer-focused solutions, I’ve had the privilege of contributing to numerous projects that have helped businesses optimize their IT strategies and enhance operational efficiency.
The inspiration to start this blog came from my interactions with business owners and clients who often expressed a need for clearer understanding and guidance in working with MSPs. Whether it’s navigating the complexities of digital transformation, ensuring cybersecurity, or leveraging technology for business growth, I realized that there’s a wealth of knowledge to be shared.
Through this blog, I aim to bridge the gap between MSPs and their clients. My goal is to provide insights, tips, and practical advice that can help business owners make informed decisions about their IT needs and how best to collaborate with an MSP like Decian. From explaining basic concepts to exploring advanced IT solutions, I strive to make this space a valuable resource for both seasoned professionals and those new to the world of managed services.
Join me on this informative journey, as we explore the dynamic and ever-evolving world of MSPs. Whether you’re an MSP client, a business owner, or just curious about the role of technology in business today, I hope to make this blog your go-to source for all things MSP.
Welcome to the blog, and let’s unravel the complexities of managed IT services together!
