## What is Rooty?

Learn cybersecurity like a language, 5 minutes a day.

Rooty turns ethical hacking into a game: 3-minute lessons, a real simulated terminal, hands-on investigations and a daily streak to keep. Whether you start from zero or aim for a security job, you progress at your own pace, without getting bored.

WHY ROOTY
• Short, varied lessons: quizzes, commands to complete, suspicious lines to spot, cards to sort, pairs to match.
• A real Linux terminal in your pocket: type commands, dig through fictional servers, find the flags.
• Real-world cases: phishing emails to dissect, buggy websites to audit, phone scams to outsmart, attack logs to read.
• The drive of a game: daily streak, XP, quests, chests, weekly leagues and badges.
• Flashcard courses to review, and spaced repetition that brings back your mistakes.

14 PATHS, FROM BEGINNER TO PRO
Fundamentals (Linux, networking, web), web security, penetration testing, hardening, Blue Team and SOC, forensics, network security, cloud security, mobile security, DevSecOps, secure coding, cryptography, governance and AI Red Team. New paths are added regularly.

100% LEGAL AND ETHICAL
Everything happens in fictional environments. You learn how attacks work to better defend against them, and never to test a system without permission.

FREE TO START
The first section of every path is free, with no time limit. Rooty Premium unlocks every path and boss, unlimited hearts, more streak freezes and all themes and icons.

Rooty Premium subscription: monthly or yearly, with a free trial on the yearly plan. Payment is charged to your Apple account at confirmation of purchase (or at the end of the trial). The subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, from your Apple account settings.
