FAQs for students writing exam reports ​

These FAQs are for students who write Hack The Box, OffSec, and other certification exam reports in the free SysReptor Labs at labs.sysre.pt.

If you run SysReptor on your own server, see the self-hosted FAQs. For SysReptor Cloud, see the cloud FAQs.

What is SysReptor Labs at labs.sysre.pt?

labs.sysre.pt is SysReptor’s free cloud for writing certification exam reports. You write the report in Markdown and render it as PDF. It includes pro features and no self-hosted setup is required.

It is not the same as SysReptor Cloud or a self-hosted SysReptor instance. Even though the functionality largely corresponds to SysReptor Professional, some functionalities are limited: You don't receive superuser permissions, collaboration with other users is restricted, you cannot edit global designs.

Where do I register for HTB, OffSec, or other certification reporting in SysReptor?

Register for the free SysReptor Labs with the signup page for your certification provider:

For other certifications or projects, sign up at any of the two links. You can create or import SysReptor designs as private designs in your user account.

Depending on the registration link, your user will receive HTB or Offsec demo reports imported by default. The platform and user capabilities are the same for both links.

After signup, log in at labs.sysre.pt.

Where do I log in to write HTB or OffSec exam reports in SysReptor?

Log in to SysReptor Labs at labs.sysre.pt.

Signup is separate from login:

Which certifications does the free SysReptor Labs support?

We currently provide the following report designs:

  • Hack The Box: CPTS, CWES, CDSA, CWEE, CAPE, CJCA, CWPE, COAE
  • OffSec: OSCP+, OSEP, OSWP, OSWA, OSWE, OSED, OSMR, OSEE, OSDA, OSIR, OSTH, OSAI

Demo PDFs and designs are listed on HTB reporting, OffSec reporting, and demo reports.

You can import any other design as private design.

Is SysReptor Labs free?

Yes. SysReptor Labs at labs.sysre.pt is free for writing certification exam reports. It includes Pro features and does not require a SysReptor Professional license.
There is no limit in the number of reports or projects you can create.

We don't recommend using SysReptor Labs for commercial pentesting reports. We don't guarantee the same level of confidentiality and availability as in SysReptor Cloud, and there is no legal basis for data processing.

I signed up for writing exam reports at labs.sysre.pt. When will you delete my data?

SysReptor Labs accounts and exam report data at labs.sysre.pt are deleted after three months without login.

Export your reports before that (PDF and/or project export) if you need to keep a copy.

We'll send you a warning a few days before account deletion.

Can I create a backup of my SysReptor exam reports on labs.sysre.pt?

You can keep copies of your work:

  1. Download the PDF from the project’s publish page (the rendered exam report).
  2. Export the project from the projects list (.tar.gz archive). That archive can be imported into other SysReptor installations later.

Do this before the account is deleted after three months without login.

I cannot log into my labs.sysre.pt account. What should I do?

If you cannot log into SysReptor at labs.sysre.pt:

If you had an account previously, your account might have been deleted if you haven't logged in for more than 3 months.

Can I self-host SysReptor instead of using SysReptor Labs for exam reports?

Yes. You can install SysReptor on your own server and import the official HTB or OffSec designs. See how to import HTB or OffSec designs.

How do I get HTB or OffSec report designs into a self-hosted SysReptor?

shell
cd sysreptor/deploy
curl -s "https://docs.sysreptor.com/assets/htb-designs.tar.gz" | docker compose exec --no-TTY app python3 manage.py importdemodata --type=design
