Big thank you to Fox.Build for being the sponsor of our in-person space!

Hack The Box Meetup — Hack, Learn & Hang Out
Come join us for a hands-on Hack The Box meetup. Whether you're an experienced penetration tester, work in cybersecurity, are studying for your next cert, or are simply interested in learning how hacking works, you're welcome.
We'll spend the session working through Hack The Box machines together, sharing techniques, troubleshooting, and talking through the tools and methodology we use along the way.

What we'll be hacking:
We plan to have several options available so you can choose something appropriate for your experience level:

• One retired Windows machine: A good opportunity to practice Windows enumeration, exploitation, and privilege escalation with a published solution available if we get stuck.
• One retired Linux machine:The same idea on Linux, with plenty of room to compare tools, techniques, and approaches.
• One live Hack The Box machine: For anyone looking for an extra challenge. Live machines don't have published solutions, so we'll have to work through this one ourselves.

You're welcome to work with a group, pair up, or tackle the machine on your own.

All skill levels are welcome
You don't need to be an expert, and you definitely don't need to solve everything yourself. If you're new to Hack The Box or offensive security, this is a great opportunity to learn alongside people who can help explain what they're doing and why.
More experienced hackers are encouraged to take on the live machine, help others when they're stuck, and share their approaches with the group.

What to bring
Bring a laptop and charger. If you already have a Hack The Box account, make sure you can log in before arriving.
Everything during the meetup will be focused on authorized Hack The Box labs and learning environments.
Come hang out, meet other people interested in security, and hack some boxes with us.
RSVP so we know how many people to expect. I'll plan to order some pizza, too! :)
