ABOUT

Built by practitioners.
For practitioners.

StackCracker was built because the cybersecurity certification landscape is broken. Too many multiple-choice exams. Too many theory-heavy courses. Not enough proof of actual skill.

OUR MISSION

Certification that actually proves something

Hands-on examsReal vulnerable machinesVerifiable credentials

We built StackCracker to create the certification we wished existed — practical, verifiable, and built by people who have actually done the work in offensive security.

Why StackCracker?

Real machines, not simulations
Every exam runs on a live vulnerable Linux machine. You either pwn it or you don't.
Verifiable credentials
Every certificate has a unique URL. Employers can verify it in seconds — no login required.
Built by practitioners
Challenges are based on real-world attack techniques used in actual penetration tests.
Accessible
Free for the first 100 students. We believe skills should be recognised regardless of budget.
