We are looking for a Security Tester to join our team You read in the news that a major company’s sensitive data has fallen into the hands of hackers. The article explains that the attacker used an HTTP request smuggling technique. By sending specially crafted HTTP requests, the attacker caused the web server and proxy to interpret the requests differently. This made it possible to bypass security controls and gain access to protected resources. As a result, the attacker was able to steal user data and launch denial-of-service attacks. You sigh deeply and think that once again, the basics have been neglected. You continue working on a new, challenging security test. At the same time, you reflect on how you could be part of building more secure systems - you don’t want your friends’ or family’s data to end up in the wrong hands.
