Here are some nice things people have said about us ❤️
Practice attacks and earn experience points
How does Hakatemia work?
On a regular learning platform, you watch videos, read texts, and complete assignments. These basic elements are also found in Hakatemia, but they are all just preparation for the core of Hakatemia: lab exercises. In Hakatemia labs, you get to perform attacks against real vulnerable targets and earn levels and experience points when you solve a task.
- Watch video.
- Many courses or modules have a video where the topic is covered.
- Read material.
- All modules include readable material consisting of text, images, questions, and exercises.
- Start lab task.
- You will be given your own server in a few seconds, where you will find a vulnerable web application. You are free to search for and exploit vulnerabilities in the application. Depending on the task, you will also have access to attacker resources, such as a Kali Linux terminal that opens in your browser, where you can run attack tools and receive connections.
- Use tools.
- As a Hakatemia PRO member, you will also have access to Hakatemia tools that make it easier to find and exploit vulnerabilities.
- Enter 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.
- Climb the leaderboard.
- Hakatemia has a leaderboard that always lists the top ten hackers in Hakatemia with their levels and experience points.
A continually growing selection
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!
