At CQURE, we believe that teaching and sharing knowledge are essential to building a stronger cybersecurity community, and Span Cyber Security Arena was a fantastic place to do exactly that.

Attackers don't take summer vacations. Seasonal gaps in monitoring and staffing are exactly what they count on.

While teams rotate through holidays, misconfigured dependencies and identity flaws stay exposed. Adversaries know when your guard drops.

That's why we built the Summer Infrastructure Pentesting Bootcamp: ten knowledge-packed modules over 5 days – starting June 15.

Paula Januszkiewicz will be joined by CQURE experts: Artur Kalinowski, Pavel Formánek, and Amr Thabet.

We're taking you deep into the stack - from reconnaissance and AD & Entra ID exploitation through advanced Windows services to enterprise post-exploitation.

Everything based on real labs and field data from our consulting engagements.

If you're a pentester, analyst, or admin who wants to sharpen up before the summer threat spike, this one's for you: https://cqureacademy.com/cyber-security-training/infrastructure-pentesting-bootcamp/

By default, SQL Server tells every new login exactly what databases you have.

It's like leaving a vault's floor plan on the front desk.

Names like HR_Payroll or Finance_Prod are enough for an attacker to know where to dig. Add a forgotten guest account or TRUSTWORTHY left enabled, and a zero-permission login becomes sysadmin in seconds.

On May 28, Damian Widera – Data Platform MVP (15 times), 20+ years of experience – delivers Module 7 of the Cybersecurity Master Annual Program: Securing SQL Server.

Learn baseline concepts, instance security, and managing logins and passwords that actually hold.

Our CEO, Paula Januszkiewicz, will take the stage at the Span Cyber Security Arena in Croatia next week (May 18–20, 2026) with two critical sessions focused on today’s evolving cyber threat landscape.

🔺 Lecture: “Forensic Adventures: Where Hackers Hide and Investigators Hunt” Most organizations miss the forensic artefacts that persistence mechanisms leave behind - Automatic Destinations files, USN Journal entries, Kerberos traces. Paula demonstrates live how to hunt these breadcrumbs across endpoints, AD, and cloud using real incident response checklists.

🔺 Masterclass: “Advanced Active Directory Attacks & Mitigations” Kerberoasting, DCSync, Pass-the-Hash, delegation abuse, ACL manipulation. Live attack demos, native tool detection, production-ready remediation.

These aren’t just theory. They’re happening in your environment right now.

This is the last call!⏰

In most environments, Entra ID is the single most important security control - and the one most likely to have gaps.
These are the issues we find in nearly every audit: stale accounts that were never deprovisioned, conditional access policies with exceptions that became the rule, MFA enforced for users but not for service principals, and app registrations with permissions nobody remembers granting.

Starting May 18, Marcin Krawczyk leads a 3-day Masterclass: Managing Entra ID from A to Z. You'll go through tenant architecture, identity lifecycle, conditional access design, identity protection, workload identities, and governance with hands-on labs that mirror real hybrid environments.

Every team managing Microsoft identity needs these skills.

⚔️👑 From castles to cyber battles - Techorama Belgium was truly unforgettable!

Our CEO, Paula Januszkiewicz, took the stage at Techorama Belgium to share one important message with the cybersecurity community: modern organizations are rarely compromised because attackers are “magical.” They are compromised because visibility, ownership, and identity control are still broken.

During her session, “Modern Cybersecurity Failures: Skills and Misconfigurations That Define the Battlefield”, Paula explored the real-world challenges security teams face every day:
⚔️ Predictable architectural weaknesses
⚔️ Excessive privilege flow
⚔️ Fragmented monitoring
⚔️ Lack of transparency during incidents
⚔️ Overly complex environments that become impossible to fully understand

And what better setting to discuss cybersecurity than a medieval-themed conference filled with castles, armor, and knights? 🏰🛡️

At CQURE Academy, we strongly believe that cybersecurity is not about building taller walls - it’s about understanding what is already happening inside the kingdom. That means visibility, threat hunting, identity protection, monitoring, and practical skills that help organizations stay ahead of attackers.

Huge thanks to the incredible Techorama community, Pieter Gheysens, Richard Campbell and Niall Merrigan for the amazing atmosphere, inspiring discussions, and passion for technology and security! ❤️

If you would like to meet Paula live and learn directly from one of the world’s leading cybersecurity experts, you can still book your spot for Black Hat USA 2026 this August! 🔥

Paula Januszkiewicz will be delivering exclusive training sessions focused on Advanced Hacking and Securing Windows Infrastructure as well as System Forensics, Incident Handling & Threat Hunting. Don’t miss the opportunity to gain hands-on knowledge from the field, explore real-world attack and defense techniques, and connect with the global cybersecurity community. 🎓🛡️
