Resources and Tools

This page contains links to couple of interesting training resources, tools and other material useful for Incident Response, Penetration Testing, Malware Analysis and other more or less CSIRT-related activities.

Although I’ve placed it here mainly for myself and students of my security courses, if you find it useful, it is also accessible through the easily remembered URL csirt.xyz.
