Open the repo on GitHub, start with the domain landing page that matches your goal, and follow its links to tools, labs, scripts, and references. Exam prep is grouped separately under Certifications.

Exam prep is grouped separately under Certifications.Is the actual content inside the repo, or does it mostly point elsewhere?It is a link hub more than a self-contained course: you start at a landing page and jump out to external tools, papers, and labs, so much of the depth lives outside the repository.

The ai section gathers AI security resources, LLM engineering material, AI-assisted incident response and automation, and resources on AI ethics, privacy, and governance.Can I use it to prep for security certifications?Yes — a dedicated certifications section groups roadmaps and exam material separately from the main taxonomy: Cisco SCOR, cloud certifications, Kubernetes/CNCF, CompTIA, ISC2, and offensive security certification references.
Yes — a dedicated certifications section groups roadmaps and exam material separately from the main taxonomy: Cisco SCOR, cloud certifications, Kubernetes/CNCF, CompTIA, ISC2, and offensive security certification references.I want hands-on practice — are there labs or cyber ranges?Yes. build-your-own-lab is a root-level section with lab-building and cyber range resources, and the domain taxonomy adds a labs and practice area — enough to build a home hacking lab before touching real targets.
