This list is a collection of various materials that I use every day in my work. It contains a lot of useful information gathered in one piece.
It is intended for everyone and anyone - especially for System and Network Administrators, DevOps, Pentesters or Security Researchers.
A few simple rules for this project:
- inviting and clear
- not tiring
- useful
These below rules may be better:
- easy to contribute to (Markdown + HTML ...)
- easy to find (simple TOC, maybe it's worth extending them?)
