Community Guidelines
HackOps Community is a professional cybersecurity discussion space maintained by HackOps GITAM.
Respect the community
- No harassment, hate speech, doxxing, personal attacks, or discrimination.
- Disagree on technique, not on people.
- Anonymity is preserved — only nicknames are visible publicly.
Stay on topic
- This is a cybersecurity forum: writeups, research, tools, CTFs, doubts, career guidance.
- Pick the most accurate category. Avoid "Other" when a category fits.
Ethical hacking only
- No instructions targeting systems you do not own or have written permission to test.
- No malware distribution, credential sharing, or operational scam playbooks.
- Disclose responsibly. Educational deep-dives are welcome — operational abuse is not.
No spam, no abuse
- Rate limits and AI moderation are enforced. Repeated rejections lower your trust score.
- Images and file uploads are disabled by design. Use code blocks for snippets.
Moderation
- All posts and replies pass through AI moderation. Suspicious items go to a human admin queue.
- Admins may approve, edit, hide, or reject content. Decisions are final.
