- You’ve probably noticed that it is Cybersecurity Awareness Month. It’s in your feed, in your inbox and, hopefully, it’s everywhere. And yes, we know: cybersecurity needs to be a topic throughout the whole year, not just in October. But if we get one month where everyone is talking about security, we’re happy to use that opportunity to put user awareness in the spotlight. Because your employees can be your strongest defence… or your easiest way in. That’s why it’s important to train your employees through 🎣 Phishing simulations

- In 1995, a movie called Hackers planted something in a young Dimitri that never really left. Along the way came ten years as a Network Administrator, five years as a triager, and countless hours spent bug bounty hunting simply out of curiosity. All of that led him here: in December 2025, Dimitri joined tSF as a Penetration Tester, working across web application security and infrastructure testing. What matters most to him?

We wrapped up a fun team-building day with a BBQ in the evening sun ☀️
- PTaaS stands for Pentesting as a Service. But what does that actually mean, and when do you need it? A traditional pentest is a one-time engagement. Our team of experts test your environment within an agreed timeframe and delivers a report. PTaaS adds a continuous layer on top of that. Your external attack surface is mapped every day.
