Hey everyone!

We just released a completely free lab on Hack Smarter. It was actually inspired by a midnight conversation in one of the casinos during Defcon... and I started building it the same night.

It's a mix of Web + Linux; but all the techniques are covered by the PEN-200 and should be great prep for the exam or real-world pentesting.

Lab is free forever -- no payment info ever needed :)

Enjoy!

The official website - monologic.games - says there are 3,214 players online. This is literally just hard coded into the HTML and never updates. Objectively there is not even close to that # of players online.

That is very misleading - is there an explanation u/Right-Teaching-665 ?

Hi everyone!

We just released a completely free Linux lab. No payment info or subscription needed... and free forever. The lab is fully hosted for you, and every student gets a private instance.

I did this one with our QA team, and it's really great prep for the OSCP/CPTS. I'd say it's a tad bit more difficult than what you'd encounter on the OSCP, but the enumeration is great prep for the exam.

No strings attached... Just genuinely want to help other succeed :)

Hi everyone!

I am the founder of Hack Smarter - which many people use for OSCP prep (we are featured on LainKusanagi's list, he has actually created a few of the labs on our platform!)

Anyways, I am making all of our labs completely free for Defcon weekend (Thursday - Sunday). We have labs covering Active Directory, Windows, Linux, Web, AWS, and more.

No strings attached... no payment info needed... just one of the many ways we are trying to make hacking accessible for as many people as possible.

Hey everyone!

I just created a completely free AWS pentesting lab. It's hosted on Hack Smarter (nothing you need to spin up in your own AWS account). You start with an Access Key and Secret and it's up to you to figure out a way to compromise the full AWS account.

Just wanted to share here since it's free -- no strings attached :)

No payment or credit card information required

Hey everyone -

I offered this previously, and then had to stop doing it because Stripe banned my account. It's a long story, details are in this YT video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FEpnyjWoY04

Anyways, I figured out a way to offer 4 weeks of free access to Hack Smarter (https://hacksmarter.org) that does NOT require any payment/credit card information. You do NOT have to worry about any automatic renewals.

Please follow these instructions for access (READ THIS!):

1. Email tyler@kairos-sec.com with the subject "OSCP - Reddit - Access". All other subjects will be ignored.
2. Include a screenshot of your exam date. I can only offer this to people who have the exam coming up within 2 months (otherwise I'll go broke on cloud costs).
3. If you enjoy the platform, consider subscribing. It's only $9/mo for unlimited access to labs. We release new labs every week with a heavy focus on realism.

Thanks & goodluck with your exam!

Hello everyone!

Founder of Hack Smarter here again :D

We just released another completely free Active Directory challenge lab. This is rated "Easy" and is great prep for the OSCP (as well as similar certs like the CPTS and PNPT).

Truly free, no payment or subscription required -- my goal is to help you pass the OSCP and improve as a pentester :)
