MEMBER STORIES
Words from our members.
The full path of one module.
On a regular platform you watch videos and read text. Same here — but here that is only the warmup. Hakatemia’s core is the lab: you attack real vulnerable targets and bank XP for every flag.
Klassinen virhe: käyttäjän syöte upotetaan sellaisenaan SQL-kyselyyn. Tutki kirjautumislomaketta ja löydä reitti admin-käyttäjän taakse ilman salasanaa.

- 01Watch video.
Many courses or modules have a video where the topic is covered.
- 02Read material.
All modules include readable material consisting of text, images, questions, and exercises.
- 03Start lab task.
In seconds, your own server runs a vulnerable web app. Find and exploit freely — depending on the task you also get a Kali terminal in the browser for running tools and catching reverse shells.
- 04Use tools.
As a Hakatemia PRO member, you will also have access to Hakatemia tools that make it easier to find and exploit vulnerabilities.
- 05Enter flag on Hakatemia page.
When you complete a task, you will receive a flag from the lab environment. When you enter the flag on the Hakatemia page, you will earn experience points and progress in the course.
- 06Climb the leaderboard.
Hakatemia has a leaderboard that always lists the top ten hackers in Hakatemia with their levels and experience points.
A course for everyone
We are constantly adding new courses, modules, labs, practice environments, challenges and tools to Hakatemia. Start now and you will have plenty of new things to learn when you have learned the current material. A hacker is never finished, but we will develop together!

Every solve banks XP.
Levels, badges and a top-10 leaderboard. The XP system tracks what you can actually do — not what you have watched.
- Solve tasks, climb levelsEvery cracked lab drops XP and pushes you toward the next level.
- Stack the skills, not just the pointsXP routes into real skills — SQLi, XSS, RCE, crypto — so you see where you are sharp and where you are not yet.
- Stack up against the restThe top-10 leaderboard tracks who breaks the most. A spot on it does not lie.
- Keep the streak aliveEvery day you solve something extends your streak. One missed day resets it.
- Earn the badgesSpecific challenges and milestones drop badges you do not get from watching videos.
