A free online course on offensive security and reverse engineering (OSRE), originally taught at Champlain College, with labs, slides, notes, and YouTube recordings. It covers exploit development topics like buffer overflows, fuzzing, and mitigation bypasses using free tools such as Ghidra, x64dbg, and Immunity Debugger.

Use cases

• learn exploit development from scratch
• practice buffer overflow attacks on vulnerable software
• prepare for OSED or similar exploit dev certification
• learn reverse engineering with Ghidra and x64dbg
• find a free offensive security course with labs
• study memory corruption and mitigation techniques

When to choose

• you want structured, lab-based exploit development training for free
• you are a student or beginner learning binary exploitation and reverse engineering
• you prefer video walkthroughs paired with hands-on labs

When to avoid

• you need a maintained tool or library rather than course material
• you want modern topics like browser or kernel exploitation
• you require licensed or officially supported training
