Who is behind Hacky

No. The conditions for the hackers should be as real as possible. Normally your productive system/network is tested directly. This allows you to find gaps that may be closed on the test server but still exist in production or in components that only exist there.

On our platform, you – and of course our hackers – will find a precise list of what is permitted and what is prohibited. You can include or exclude further points. We are also happy to assist you if you have any questions. However, if you are unsure, we recommend that you simply use the Hacky template, as it includes and excludes everything relevant and will certainly be ideal for you to start with.

We always try to communicate as clearly and simply as possible. It may happen that we use a term that you are not familiar with. We would therefore like to discuss how we define and interpret certain terms.
