New HTB walkthrough: REDEEMER (Tier 0) - Redis fundamentals for beginners.
Redis is everywhere! Caching, session stores, job queues – and when it is exposed or misconfigured, it can leak sensitive data. I just published a beginner-focused walkthrough that covers:
🔹 How sensitive data can be stored directly in memory
🔹 What Redis is and common use cases
🔹 Why you shouldn't expose Redis without authentication
🔹 How to identify Redis with Nmap (port 6379)
🔹 How to connect with "redis-cli", enumerate keys and databases
🔹 Why "KEYS *" is fine for CTFs but use "SCAN" in production
This is part of my ongoing Hack The Box Starting Point – Step-by-Step Walkthrough for Beginners series, where the goal is to help newcomers build strong fundamentals in ethical hacking.
