• Pricing: Starting at $7/month, Hacktivity is the most affordable price point of cyber security training platforms

Comprehensive Range of Technical Concepts

• Complete penetration testing life cycle (scanning, exploitation, post-exploitation, pivoting)
• Web security including OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities (XSS, SQLi, CSRF)
• Malware analysis and reverse engineering
• Software vulnerability assessment
• Authentication and access control systems
• System hardening (including ACLs, setuid, MAC)
• Network security and attack scenarios
• Container security and sandboxing
• Security monitoring (IDS, integrity monitoring, exfiltration detection)
• Incident response and digital forensics
• Applied cryptography
• Secure software development
• Advanced topics like fuzzing and exploit development (including buffer overflows and bypass techniques for ASLR, NX)

Unique, Randomised Challenges

Other cyber security training platforms provide static challenges, which means once a solution is posted online, learners can simply follow the exact same steps, or submit the same flags and solutions, without developing real understanding.

Hacktivity generates unique, randomised challenges for each learner. Every time someone starts a lab, they get their own virtual machines with randomised configurations - different usernames, passwords, IP addresses, and varying challenge details, such as software vulnerabilities or crypto challenges.

Open innovation: At the heart of our technology stack is our open source SecGen framework.

In addition to comprehensive courses, learners can access "Hack boxes" - replayable multi-step CTF scenarios for additional practice.
