Getting started

RootAccess is a practice and competition platform for cybersecurity learners. Your first session usually takes less than five minutes.

Create an account

Select Register and complete the account form. Verify your email when prompted, then use Sign In to enter the platform.

Explore the home screen

After signing in, the home screen is your launchpad. Use the navigation bar to open challenges, contests, teams, the scoreboard, notifications, and settings.

Pick a learning path

Start with a challenge category that matches your goals. Web, crypto, reversing, pwn, forensics, OSINT, and misc challenges are all available when published by the platform administrators.

Tip: Read the challenge description carefully before opening tools. Many challenges include the intended entry point, files, or connection details there.
