Secpedia - IT Security Encyclopedia

Secpedia - Information security encyclopedia for hackers

Secpedia.net is an IT security knowledge sharing platform


Having an information security encyclopedia is very much essential as both newcomers and experienced people are depending on blogs, underground forums and social networks to get information and knowledge. Most of the times, these leads to false information and may drive them to a completely different culture. Since Secpedia is using a wiki model, everyone is welcome to make their edits and contributions. Thus ensuring that we are getting the best possible information.

Secpedia is a wiki based information security encyclopedia built with the aim of bringing quality information to those who need it. The portal is still on the process of development and there are few quality articles there at the time of writing.

One of the interesting thing about this portal is that all the text contents are released under Creative Commons Share-Alike 3.0 license and are thus belong to the public. All the contents are categorized neatly and is very much accessible. The interface is also very light, neat and pleasing to the eyes.

Efforts like Secpedia can bring quality and standards to the industry which is of at most importance. We also feel that knowledge should be accessible to those who seeks for it.
