Beginner Images

Windows

• Santa's Workshop (Bottom right of the page)

Santa's Workshop has an image walk through and a video tutorial, which are in the "Answers" tab.

Linux

• BloonsTD6

BloonsTD6 has an answer key, which briefly explains how to solve each issue, however they're not all fully explained, such as "prohibited software has been removed". This is a debian 10 image, but it can be applied to any other version of debian or ubuntu, except for the sections that use a GUI, which will be different on ubuntu. The vulnerabilities are the same kind of vulnerabilities that are on early cyber patriot competitions.

Other Images

• Magistrate (3 windows images and 1 linux image)

This website has 4 images, 2 of which have an image walkthrough, and a 3rd has an answer key. Besides Santa's workshop these are very difficult.

• Ethan's Blog (1 windows image and 3 linux images)

This website has 4 images, none of which have an answer key or walkthrough. The linux images are a good next step after BloonsTD6 because although they don't have an answer key like the linux image on Magistrate, the vulnerabilities are simpler.

• Money Heist (Ubuntu)
• Windows Practice Image (Windows)
• The Cincinnati Zoo (Windows)

I know nothing about these images, but they're apparently "intermediate" difficulty.
