Resources are intentionally curated to support ethical conduct, professional development, and responsible participation in The Hackening. They supplement mentorship — they are not a substitute for instruction or supervision.
The conduct expectations every Hackening participant agrees to. Authorization, scope discipline, documentation, and client respect
How engagements are scoped, executed, and delivered. The five-step model in operational detail.
How professional pen test reports are written, structured, and validated. Templates and examples.
Additional resource categories are in development as the program matures, including engagement case studies (anonymized), mentor guidance documents, and partner-college onboarding kits.
Resources answer the 'how.' Mentorship answers the 'why this, here, now.' If you’re ready to participate, that’s where to start.
