Whether you’re an experienced veteran of managing peak traffic or new to the game, Q4 can bring surprises when it comes to performance and security.

Of course grep and findstr are also in every red teamers toolbox.

As part of a coding project I recently learned about “The Silver Searcher”, which is very fast and has some neat features built it. It’s focus is source code searching.
