Field notes
The site describes a workflow that starts with service enumeration and moves through exploit selection, payload execution, and shell access. Its Academy section lists command-line, networking, vulnerability, OPSEC, and forensics tracks, while the campaign adds constraints such as thermal throttling and power limits. The homepage also links dated patch notes, including updates from October 2026; it presents several learning and scale figures as project claims.
