## What it is
A curated awesome-list collection of cheat sheets useful for penetration testing, covering discovery, enumeration, exploitation, and general security topics. This repository is deprecated and its content has moved to ByteSnipers/awesome-pentest-cheat-sheets.

## Use cases
- find cheat sheets for penetration testing
- look up command references for pentest tools like Empire or Amass
- learn pentesting techniques via curated resources
- find security talks and video archives
- reference Google dorks and OSINT search engines
- get a quick reference for PowerShell or Unix commands during an engagement

## When to choose
- you want a curated index of pentest cheat sheets in one place
- you are a pentester needing quick command references
- you are building your own security learning resource list

## When to avoid
- you need actively maintained content - use the successor repo ByteSnipers/awesome-pentest-cheat-sheets instead
- you need a tool that performs pentesting rather than references
- you need structured or machine-readable data rather than links

- function: penetration-testing, security, documentation, developer-tools
