Hey everyone!

I came across an article that mentioned, "A security researcher recently found an unprotected database online with millions of access codes, easily reachable by anyone."

As someone with beginner to intermediate knowledge in cybersecurity, I'm curious about how experts discover vulnerabilities like this online. I aspire to have my name recognized in the field one day. Do you spend countless hours searching, or do you dive deep when something seems suspicious?
