About Duckurity
We build the infrastructure that turns security operators into adversaries worth fearing.
WHY WE EXIST
The cybersecurity training market is broken. Platforms recycle the same static challenges, cert mills gate knowledge behind paywalls, and operators train on threats that expired years ago. We started Duckurity because we refused to accept that.
Duckyard is sovereign infrastructure for offensive security. Every challenge is AI-generated and unique. Every lab is an ephemeral Firecracker microVM destroyed on exit. Every piece of threat intelligence is real-time, not archived. We built what we wanted to train on ourselves.
PRINCIPLES
Sovereign Infrastructure
No vendor lock-in. No cloud dependencies we don't control. Bare-metal Frankfurt datacenter, self-managed K3s, our own network fabric.
Ephemeral by Default
Every lab environment is destroyed after use. No persistence, no cross-contamination, no forensic residue.
Research-First
Training must reflect today's threat landscape. Our pipeline ingests live CVE data and generates scenarios from real-world attack chains.
Zero Trust
We treat our own infrastructure as hostile. Mutual TLS, network segmentation, least-privilege at every boundary.
Open Tooling
API-first design. Everything in the platform is programmable — lab provisioning, challenge generation, progress tracking.
No Security Theatre
No gamification for its own sake. No meaningless badges. Training that maps directly to real-world operational capability.
THE OPERATORS
A small, technically obsessive team. No marketing hires, no growth hackers. Engineers and researchers who build what they use.
