Proteger una empresa antes del ataque: Pentesting y hacking ético: - Cylum Talks #1

This time we spoke with Julián Delgado, Joan Moya, and Luis Uribe, part of Cylum's offensive security team, about a key issue for any organization: what information is exposed online and how it could be used by an attacker. The conversation focused on the importance of reconnaissance, cyber intelligence, penetration testing, and attack surface management to understand how cybercriminals think and how companies can anticipate their moves. Throughout the discussion, moderated by David López, the team shared a clear idea: before attacking, cybercriminals observe, gather information, profile targets, and look for the easiest path. From leaked credentials to exposed technologies, vendors, public documents, metadata, or poorly protected configurations, any data can be part of an attack chain. During the conversation, we addressed key questions for any security team: 🔎 What information can be found about a company in open sources? 🕵️ How does pre-attack reconnaissance work? 🌐 What is the attack surface and why should it be monitored? 🎯 How are OSINT, social engineering, and phishing used in targeted attacks? 🔐 Why leaked credentials and infostealers pose a critical risk? 🏢 How can suppliers and the supply chain become entry points? 🛠️ What does a penetration testing or Red Team exercise offer beyond automated scanning? 🧩 Why does every organization need a strategy tailored to its specific context? This conversation is especially useful for: • CISOs and security managers looking to evolve their strategy • IT and SOC teams working on detection and response • Professionals interested in cyber intelligence and threat analysis • Organizations that want to strengthen their security culture • Technical professionals seeking a better understanding of the threat factor Human 💬 “Recognition is what gives you understanding and business logic.” — Luis Uribe 🔔If you liked it, share this video and subscribe for more exclusive talks about cybersecurity for your company.
