1. Introduction In 2026, ransomware has evolved: it no longer just encrypts files, but also exfiltrates data (double extortion), deletes backup snapshots, infects cloud backups, and attacks entire supply chains. According to Mandiant M-Trends 2026 and IBM X-Force reports, the average recovery time has dropped to less than 48 hours for well-prepared organizations, but exceeds two weeks for those without automation. In this article we will explore ransomware defense strategies focused on fast recovery and backup automation. We will build a complete lab with Docker Compose where we simulate an attack, execute automated recovery, and verify data integrity. 2. Ransomware …

1. Introduction REST APIs are the nervous system of modern applications: they connect frontends to backends, microservices to each other, and enable mobile devices to access data in real time. But if a poorly protected database can be compromised with SQL injection, a poorly designed API can expose the entire infrastructure with a single payload. In this article we will perform a complete security lab on a REST API using Burp Suite, the de facto standard tool for web pentesting. We will cover everything from endpoint discovery to exploiting common vulnerabilities: IDOR, missing rate limiting, parameter injection, and authentication errors. …
