The Operator Sessions

The Operator Sessions - continuous training at the frontier.

Formerly Dragon Drop, now the continuous learning rhythm behind Learn Enterprise. New content lands in the OffSec Learning Library every week - 7,800+ hours of text, 5,400+ labs and 1,600+ videos. In the Operator Sessions, active operators curate what matters, put bleeding-edge techniques and fresh CVEs in context, and drill them live with your team. No passive watching - active co-learning.

Status · Summer break
The dragon is hibernating - back end of September.

Dragon Drop is on a summer break. From end of September we're back with monthly live sessions. Stay tuned - join our newsletter so you don't miss the first date.

Dragon Drop - monthly OffSec mini-training by Exploit Labs
Why Dragon Drop?

Always up to date - hands-on, not theory.

Curated content

We show you what really matters from the OffSec library - beyond exam-relevant content: cloud pentesting, ABAC, IMDSv2, ADCS, current CVEs.

Hands-on, not theory

Short, interactive mini-webinar with direct application. Not passive viewing - active co-learning with trainer feedback.

Community access

Priority for Exploit Labs customers. Individual sessions are opened to everyone - the ideal entry point to meet our trainer team and community.

A glimpse of Learn Enterprise

This is what OffSec Learn Enterprise feels like day to day.

Learn Enterprise is OffSec's team license: full access to every course (OSCP, OSEP, OSWE, OSDA, OSED …), labs, and exam tracks - plus SOC 2-compliant team management. Dragon Drop makes visible what you receive with it each month: new course modules, current CVEs, cloud and AD attack paths - curated and practised.

For teams, Dragon Drop is doubly useful: as a free trial run before a Learn Enterprise rollout - and as a monthly cadence that keeps your analysts and pentesters continuously plugged into new OffSec content.
