Last week, Microsoft announced it will be shutting down Skype on May 5th. Coincidentally, today marks exactly 11 years since we migrated to Slack. It’s interesting to look back at how communication tools have changed over the years.

#RemoteWork
4/4

To work around this, we set up a simple "bot" to stay in the chat and keep messages accessible.

3/4

We managed discussions through named group chats, but when Skype switched to a peer-to-peer model, it caused an issue: if only one person was online in the evening and someone else logged in first the next morning, messages wouldn’t be delivered.

✅ Code included authorization bearer token for GitHub Actions
✅ In the end they managed to find to the NPM Token with write access to proper packages

4/4

✅ Third-party services can be an unexpected attack vector.

In this specific situation:
✅ Attackers found a public Docker image on DockerHub (which definitely should not be public)
✅ Image contained .git folder (what should not happen)

3/

It's a case study on the risks introduced through acquisitions, third-party integrations, and overlooked assets.

A few key takeaways:
✅ Attackers often look beyond the obvious—business context matters.
✅ Acquisitions can introduce hidden security gaps.

I recently explored six lesser-known Redis features that can supercharge your applications:
🔹 Redis Streams as a lightweight Kafka alternative
🔹 Native JSON support with powerful queries
🔹 Vector database for AI-driven applications
🔹 Time Series for real-time analytics
