Open source
Knowledge grows when it is shared.
About TBTP
Why we
exist.
We believe meaningful change starts with small actions—and that security should belong to everyone.
Who we are
The Broken Table Project is a student-led open-source community dedicated to making the digital world safer through collaboration, learning, and practical projects.
Why TBTP exists
Everyone deserves
a safer digital world.
Security should not be limited by age, experience, education, or background. Everyone should have the opportunity to learn, contribute, and benefit from a safer internet.
The problem
Cybersecurity can feel difficult to enter. Knowledge, tools, and opportunities are not always approachable or openly shared. We want to help lower that barrier.
Our mission
Build open-source security tools. Share practical knowledge. Help people learn by building. Create an open community where students can contribute to meaningful security projects.
Our vision
To grow into a global student-led community that develops practical security projects, shares knowledge openly, and lowers the barrier to learning cybersecurity.
Core values
How we work matters.
Learning by building
Real projects create real experience.
Accessibility
Security should be understandable and approachable.
Privacy
Respect people’s privacy and data.
Collaboration
Great projects are built together.
Curiosity
Keep asking questions. Keep learning.
