Companies Helped
We help people and companies make better security decisions by providing practical, real-world cybersecurity training through hands-on and fun learning experiences.
Our training is based on 10+ years of penetration testing experience, showing you the actual misconfigurations and vulnerabilities we've found in real environments—and how to defend against them.
Founded by cybersecurity professionals with over a decade of hands-on penetration testing experience, Hacktive Education was born from a simple observation: traditional security training doesn't prepare people for real-world threats.
We've seen the same vulnerabilities and misconfigurations across hundreds of organizations. Our training programs are designed to teach you not just what to secure, but how attackers actually think and operate.
From designing challenges at major cybersecurity conferences like Hackfest, GoSec, and NorthSec to training IT teams at Fortune 500 companies, we bring real-world experience to every session.

We don't just teach cybersecurity—we teach you to think like an attacker
Learn to think like an attacker. Our training is based on real attack techniques used to breach 250+ companies, giving you the offensive perspective needed to defend effectively.
No boring lectures. Practice exploiting real vulnerabilities in safe lab environments, then learn how to fix them. Every concept is reinforced through practical exercises.
Our scenarios are based on actual penetration tests and security assessments. You'll learn to identify and fix the misconfigurations that actually get companies breached.
Learn from active penetration testers and security professionals who have seen it all. Our instructors bring real-world experience from hundreds of security assessments.
Whether you're an individual looking to level up or a company needing team training, we customize our approach to your specific infrastructure and security challenges.
In every training session, participants find real vulnerabilities in their company's production systems on the first day. Our hands-on approach delivers immediate, actionable security insights.
