Ethical hacking labs
CTFs and permissioned testing with a clear learning goal.
OVERVIEW
Hands-on practice through CTFs and permissioned lab environments — every exercise has a learning goal and a clear boundary.
WHAT I DID
- Attempted CTF challenges and lab machines
- Documented failed and successful approaches
- Revisited write-ups only after honest attempts
HOW I LEARNED
Try first, then read. Methodology over copy-paste exploits.
Stay inside scope; treat labs as training, not real-world abuse.
