Overview
Offensive security, proven by doing it.
OffSec ties each certification to a course; the code’s number is the level, from 100 for basics to 400 for expert exploitation. Nearly every exam is a hands-on lab where you attack or defend live systems, proctored by OffSec staff over a private VPN. The Kali Linux exam is the exception, a multiple-choice test, and some credentials, such as OSCP+, expire after three years.

Reviews
Real stories from the community.
LUNARTECH Academy has been the most empowering learning experience of my life, giving me a clear, structured path from the absolute basics to building real-world AI systems with confidence.
Your page is fantastic. As a bachelor’s student in Data Science now accepted for a master’s at UConn, your work has been a real source of motivation.
The programme’s clear, bite-sized content and practical projects dramatically improved my speed from fuzzy idea to MVP and my ability to communicate AI value. I followed the system, and it works.
I really appreciate your teaching style and the way you break down complex topics. It has been incredibly helpful.
After years working mainly with R for econometrics, I found your Python machine learning course a refreshing and engaging way to learn Python.
As a Data Science graduate, I want to thank you for the effort you put into making videos to support growing data scientists.
I’ve been following your work since taking your machine learning course, and I’m impressed by your practical approach to applying AI.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
Need help? These answers cover most of what people ask before they start.
No. OffSec issues them, and you deal with OffSec directly. LUNARTECH is independent of OffSec, and its names and marks belong to it. When you finish a course of ours, you earn a LUNARTECH certificate of completion for that course.
No. We design our own course for each certification here, around what it covers. OffSec has no part in them, and you still deal with OffSec directly for the credential.
