💡 HTTP Request Smuggling
Request smuggling exploits differences in how front-end and back-end servers parse HTTP requests. This technique can bypass security controls, poison web caches, and hijack other users sessions by desynchronizing request boundaries.
💡 Certificate Transparency Monitoring
Certificate Transparency logs record all publicly trusted TLS certificates. Monitoring these logs reveals unauthorized certificate issuance, phishing domain preparation, and shadow IT — providing early warning of attacks targeting an organizations domain.
