What is this?A curated list of hacking tutorials, tools and resources covering system exploitation, reverse engineering, web security, network security, forensics, cryptography and wargames.
Is this a tool or just a list of links?It is purely a markdown list of links and references to external tutorials, tools, docker images and wargame sites — there is no code or software to run here.
How is the list organized?It is organized by topic area (System, Reverse Engineering, Web, Network, Forensic, Cryptography, Wargame), each split into Tutorials, Tools and General sections.
Where should a beginner start?Beginners are pointed to the Roppers Computing Fundamentals course, a free self-paced curriculum for people with no prior technical background, plus the Wargame section's beginner-friendly sites like OverTheWire and Hack This Site.
What kind of tools does the list cover?It spans disassemblers and debuggers (IDA, Ghidra, radare2), decompilers for Java/.NET/native code, packet sniffers (Wireshark, tcpdump), network scanners (nmap, Shodan, masscan), forensic platforms (Autopsy, sleuthkit) and crypto crackers (John the Ripper, Aircrack).
Are there ready-to-use practice environments?Yes, it lists Docker images for vulnerable apps like OWASP Juice Shop, DVWA and WebGoat, plus wargame sites such as pwnable.kr, Hack The Box and OverTheWire for hands-on practice.
