# cipherstorm ⚡🕵️‍♀️

> Produced by Noir Stack for the community, because apparently the internet still needs one more vault of hacking PDFs.  
> A cultivated archive of penetration testing, security, and cyber-mayhem reading material — from foundational network defense to “hold my beer”-level offensive research.

Organized by domain, each entry includes:
- Year of publication (so you can see exactly how out of date your “cutting edge” exploit is)
- Format (📕 = paid, 📖 = free, because rent exists)
- Source links (so you can pretend you did your own research)

### Categories
- Penetration Testing
- Web Application Security
- Reverse Engineering
- Malware Analysis
- Exploit Development
- Cryptography
- Incident Response
- Digital Forensics
- Social Engineering
- Security Management & Policy

**Disclaimer:**  
This archive exists for curiosity, research, and the occasional sleepless night spent chasing down obscure exploits.
Use responsibly, with consent, and on systems you actually own — or ones where the owner buys you coffee instead of calling their lawyers.
If your “testing” accidentally makes the evening news, that’s on you.
