About me
whoami
Hi! I’m Maksim Radaev, also known as vflame6. I’m a penetration tester specializing in offensive security operations, with a particular focus on network infrastructure, Active Directory environments, and web application security.
I conduct comprehensive security assessments from start to finish - from initial scoping and reconnaissance through exploitation and post-exploitation, to delivering detailed reports and presenting actionable findings to clients. My approach combines technical expertise with clear communication to help organizations understand and remediate their security weaknesses.
Currently I offer network (external/internal), application (web/mobile), social-engineering penetration testing projects and red team operations. Looking for professional penetration testing or red team services? See contact options in Contacts section.
Beyond client work, I’m passionate about developing open-source security tools, sharing knowledge through my Blog and Telegram channel, and continuously expanding my skills in red teaming and adversary simulation.

Projects
Open Source Development
I develop and maintain security tools that automate common pentesting tasks:
- leaker: Passive leak enumeration tool that discovers and validates credential leaks from public sources. Inspired by subfinder, it automates the discovery of compromised credentials during external assessments.
- bruter: Active network services bruteforce tool. Designed as modular framework to support extensibility and provide a lot of features like concurrency handling, logging and included wordlists.
- sharefinder: SMB shares enumeration and access analysis tool designed for Active Directory environments. Built to handle network-scale scanning with minimal noise.
More tools and projects are available on my Projects page.
Blog and Telegram Channel
I regularly publish technical articles on this blog covering things I find interesting in the offensive security field. You can browse all my posts in the Archives or by Categories.
I share shorter updates, quick tips, and Russian-language content on my Telegram channel, where I discuss ongoing research and industry developments.
