SEED Labs provides a comprehensive, open-source collection of hands-on cybersecurity labs designed for practical security education and training.
SEED Labs developed in the last 20 years.
This tool is primarily used by educators and students in universities, colleges, and high schools to facilitate experiential learning in cybersecurity through well-designed lab exercises. It supports training in various security domains such as network monitoring, incident response, and security operations, enabling users to gain practical skills in a controlled environment.
Since the repository contains a wide range of labs across different security domains, installation and usage instructions vary per lab; users should carefully follow each lab's specific README. The project emphasizes community contributions to expand and maintain the labs, so active participation is encouraged. Labs are licensed under CC BY-NC-SA 4.0, so usage should comply with this license.
