Academy

In the shells & payloads module, "The live Engagement" in the hint section it is stated that: "Attempt to complete the challenges on your own. If you get stuck then view the helpful hints below and next to each challenge question:" However, the hints contain credentials that are needed to solve the lab and are not default credentials (because in the scenario they have been acquired during recon) Therefore, it is not possible to solve them without using the hints and the text is misleading as there is no way to (except bruteforcing) to obtain these credentials.

I'm enjoying CPTS's Penetration Tester job role path so far. This makes me wonder, will HTB introduce a ICS/OT Red Team and/or Penetration Tester job role path and certification in the future? Would really love to see this

Users should be able to display the rank they obtained on academy badges. Currently, we can only see how many people have completed each badge, not the rank at which we obtain it. We can only guess the rank by quickly looking at the number whenever we get a new badge, but it's imprecise and disappear whenever more people get that same badge. Thanks a lot !

We would like to have video content added to the training modules, as our students tend to gravitate more towards video-based learning, especially coming from platforms like Security Plus that offer video content and practice exams.

Would be nice to be able to bookmark sections that you can see in the list of sections, perhaps shows one of those blue bookmark things next to the completed green icon. Good for review for exams.

It would be nice if you could save modules in a for later section. Some modules will mention something like "if you want to learn more about curl, check out this module". which is nice but I'd like to have a place that reminds me of the things I wanted to check out later.

A feature where important words are highlighted for potentially needed quick reminders. Remembering every acronym can be difficult, being reminded what ETW is quickly by hovering my mouse over the word would be really helpful.

Currently, for non-Enterprise users, the only VPNs available in Academy is US/EU which leaves Pacific/SEA/Asia users with 2 bad options (200ms respectively) which tends to be unusable especially for modules that require RDP access. Would love some other options (i.e. Australia, Singapore) for VPNs.

Instead of the current system where credentials are displayed within quotation marks, I propose implementing a feature that allows users to easily copy credentials with a simple click, similar to the existing functionality for the spawned IP address.

Hi, we are using the CPSA/CRT pathway but the modules seem to from the old version of the exam. Also it would be useful if the CREST modules could be mapped to the specific HTB modules? At the moment the modules state that all CREST modules are applicable which isn't the case. I've added some screenshots to show what I am referring to. Thanks!
