Humla (meaning attack in Hindi) is a completely hands-on workshop with the clear focus on learning the tools, techniques and approaches of offensive hacking using simulated servers and networks.

Humla is different from a normal null meet in its focus and duration. The focus is on learning specific tools and techniques and the duration is about 5-6 hours of hands-on work.

null Humla Basics

• null Humla events are invite only Keeping them exclusive allows for keeping the logistics simple, the course content focussed and the interactions very engaging.

• null Humla events are completely hands-on The idea is to learn offensive hacking, therefore everyone is expected to come prepared and do the hands-on in a group.

• null Humla events require you to get your laptop There is no pairing up while doing hands-on. The point is to ensure that you actually get the practice while learning.

• null Humla events are about 5-6 hours This is an ideal time to get all 10 people up to speed and comfortable. This amount of time allows for everyone to become comfortable with the topic at hand.

• A null Humla event is led by 1-2 champions in that particular topic One or two hackers who have the experience and skills are assigned as Humla Champions for a particular topic. They are completely responsible for the course content and ensuring that all the group members learn the concepts and the attacks.
