Real Life Pentesting with the usd PentestLab.
Pentesters can train their methodical skills, creativity and endurance in real life pentesting, using a continuously growing number of preconfigured server environments, various technologies and vulnerabilities of varying difficulty levels. No isolated tasks. No reports. No jury. Only skill counts.
The PentestLab is not only used by our own pentesters, but also provides the training environment for our clients during CST Academy events, and is the basis for our regular Hackers’ Days designed for students and universities.
LabManager
The HeroLab provides the option of defining individual environments for targeted and demand-oriented training by means of the LabManager.
Hacking on Demand
If you're looking for quick entry into the training, you can select “hacking on demand”, in which a pool of vulnerable systems is randomly assigned to the pentester.
Ranking Function
Pentesters can assess their skills and personal advancement through skill points with an associated ranking function.
Certification Program
We offer the participation in the Hero Certification Program. Pentester can receive their personal certificate after successful processing of the necessary tasks.

Where does the journey take us?
The HeroLab is not a static construct. This is due to the mere fact that the world of IT security is in a steady state of flux. However, feedback from all user groups is already finding its way into the continuous development of the usd HeroLab. Further features are being planned and developed. “Battle of Heroes”, “Bug-bounty Environment” and “Games” are only a selection of the keywords that indicate what lies ahead.
