Learn how hackers attack so you can protect your systems better and make smart security choices that really work.
After the training, you'll know the mistakes hackers look for—and how to fix them.
You run important systems but want to know how hackers think so you can protect them better.
You build and manage networks but want to find and fix security problems before hackers do.
Your company needs people who understand real cybersecurity to reduce business risks.
Perfect for: IT people who want to learn cybersecurity but don't know where to start, students getting into security, and companies who want their teams to have security skills.
Here's the uncomfortable truth: It's not just your company that's likely being targeted—you are being targeted right now, and you probably don't even know it.
Hackers are always scanning your systems, looking for easy ways in. Most companies don't know they're being tested daily by automated tools and hackers.
What looks secure to you might be easy for a hacker to break. Simple mistakes that seem harmless can give hackers complete access in minutes.
You're always playing catch-up: fixing problems after they're announced, responding after attacks happen. Meanwhile, hackers are always one step ahead, attacking what you haven't thought to protect.
You've implemented standard security measures, but you don't know if they actually work against real attack techniques. Compliance doesn't equal security.
AI-powered attack tools are becoming autonomous, capable of scanning, exploiting, and pivoting through networks without human intervention. These threats operate 24/7 at machine speed.
What used to require skilled hackers now happens automatically. Autonomous systems can test thousands of attack vectors simultaneously, finding and exploiting vulnerabilities faster than human defenders can respond.
While you're focused on keeping systems running, attackers are studying your infrastructure, finding creative ways to exploit the gaps you don't even know exist.
It's time to flip the script: Learn to think like an attacker so you can secure proactively, not reactively.
Instead of memorizing long lists, you'll understand how hackers actually think and work. This helps you find problems before they become serious and make security decisions with confidence.

In every training I've delivered, at least one participant found a real vulnerability in their production environment on the first day.
This isn't theory. My participants immediately apply what they learn and discover critical security flaws in their own systems.
Guaranteed result: Your team will identify real vulnerabilities in your systems from day one of training.
Years of real-world penetration testing experience finding the exact vulnerabilities we teach you to prevent.
Delivered training at major cybersecurity conferences like Hackfest, GoSec, and NorthSec.
Companies trust us to train their IT teams on real-world security threats.
"I feel much safer now after my session with Hacktive, who explained to me in terms that I could understand how to add an APP to secure my system. I no longer need to change all my passwords manually and logging in and out are much faster. I strongly recommend you hook up with him online and then implement his advice."
"J'ai participé à l'atelier « Mettez vous dans la peau d'un pentester! » animé par Simon lors du GoSEC 2024. L'atelier était très intéressant puisqu'il s'adressait à toutes les personnes en cybersécurité peu importe leurs connaissances et expérience en pentesting!"
"J'ai eu l'opportunité de participer à l'atelier de Simon Nolet lors du GoSec 2024. Je dois avouer que l'exercice était vraiment amusant et même un peu addictif. Une fois que l'on commence à résoudre les défis, on a envie de continuer."
