Community-maintained Markdown knowledge base covering cybersecurity foundations, offensive and defensive practice, governance, threat intelligence, OSINT, and career guidance.
Learn cybersecurity, from the foundations up.
A structured, community-maintained knowledge base: six tracks, one tree, from how a network works to how an attacker thinks.

Search with ⌘ K, read an article, move through the tracks and the sidebar, explore the structure map.
Security knowledge is scattered across blog posts, slide decks and tool READMEs. Cyber Library puts it in one tree, so every technique sits next to the ones that share its mental model, with real commands, the mechanism behind them, and links to primary sources.
A public, read-only MCP server. No account, no API key, nothing to run.
Claude Code, one line:
claude mcp add --transport http cyber-library https://www.cyberlibrary.com/api/mcp
Cursor: one-click install, or add this to .cursor/mcp.json (Windsurf takes the same block in mcp_config.json):
{ "mcpServers": { "cyber-library": { "url": "https://www.cyberlibrary.com/api/mcp" } } }
VS Code and GitHub Copilot: one-click install, or add this to .vscode/mcp.json:
{ "servers": { "cyber-library": { "type": "http", "url": "https://www.cyberlibrary.com/api/mcp" } } }
Claude Desktop and claude.ai: Settings, Connectors, Add custom connector, paste https://www.cyberlibrary.com/api/mcp.
ChatGPT: Settings, Connectors, Advanced, turn on Developer mode, then create a connector with the same URL.
Stdio-only clients: bridge it with npx -y mcp-remote https://www.cyberlibrary.com/api/mcp.
Then ask: "Explain how Kerberoasting works and link me the page." Your assistant gets six tools (search_library, get_page, list_topics, get_outline, search_planned_topics, get_planned_subtree) and cites the page URLs. Full setup for every client is on cyberlibrary.com/mcp.
| Section | Focus |
|---|---|
| Foundation | History, ethics, risk, and the human side of security |
| Offensive | Ethical hacking, testing, and adversarial simulation |
| Defensive | Monitoring, incident response, and resilience |
| Governance | Policy, compliance, and executive-level security |
| Intelligence | Threat intelligence and OSINT |
| Career | Roles, skills, certifications, and growth |
The content is plain Markdown, generated from a shared taxonomy and published to cyberlibrary.com. Pages are written in a consistent house style: offensive topics explain the vulnerability and how it is exploited, with real commands and references.
git clone https://github.com/Cyber-Courses/Cyber-Library.git
