Cybersecurity practice must be controlled, lawful and explicitly authorized.

Allowed scope

  • Your own Android device and Termux environment.
  • The sample files and local services supplied by this academy.
  • Accounts, applications or targets for which you have clear permission.
  • Purpose-built training platforms that explicitly allow the exercise.

Out of scope

Do not scan, exploit, intercept, guess passwords for or disrupt third-party websites, public addresses, Wi-Fi networks, accounts or devices. Public accessibility is not authorization.

Termux lab safety

  • Keep academy files under $HOME and personal Android files outside the lab.
  • Grant shared-storage access only when a lesson requires it.
  • Read scripts before execution and avoid commands copied from unknown sources.
  • Bind training services to 127.0.0.1 unless the lesson defines a trusted local scope.
  • Do not use root, unrestricted automation or real credentials.
  • Back up source files and verify hashes before analysis.
Portable challenges

The included challenge programs use Termux-compatible shell or Python files. They do not create system users or install into privileged desktop paths.
