Awesome Infosec

A curated list of awesome information security resources, inspired by the 'awesome-*' trend on GitHub and my previous Coderwall Post.

The goal is to build a categorized community-driven collection of free resources focused on information security skill sets like Penetration Testing, Hardening, Computer Forensics, Malware Analysis, Reverse Engineering, Vulnerability Assessment and Research, Cryptography, Network Security, Honeypot Deployment and Anonimity.

Those resources and tools are intended only for cybersecurity professional and educational use in a controlled environment.
