## What it is
A curated list of free cloud native security learning labs, including CTFs, self-hosted workshops, guided vulnerability labs, and research labs. It organizes resources by technology (AWS, Azure, GCP) and category with author and notes metadata.

## Use cases
- find free cloud security CTF challenges
- learn AWS IAM misconfiguration exploitation hands-on
- set up a vulnerable-by-design cloud penetration testing playground
- practice cloud incident response scenarios
- find guided workshops for cloud security best practices
- train a team on cloud native security vulnerabilities

## When to choose
- you want a curated index of free cloud security training resources
- you need hands-on labs for AWS, Azure, or GCP security
- you are preparing for cloud security roles or certifications

## When to avoid
- you need a software tool rather than a list of learning resources
- you require paid, structured courses with instructor support
- you need non-cloud security training like web app or binary exploitation

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: security, penetration-testing, developer-tools
- domain: security, cloud-computing, penetration-testing, tutorials, awesome-lists
- platform: cloud, self-hosted
- tags: cloud-security, ctf, hands-on-labs, vulnerability-labs, workshops, curated-list
