-===============================
+The Exploit-Database Git Repository
+===================================
 
-The official Exploit Database repository, now on Github!
+This is the official repository of [The Exploit Database](http://www.exploit-db.com), a project sponsored by [Offensive Security](https://www.offensive-security.com).
 
-- Exploit Database - http://www.exploit-db.com
-- Offensive Security - http://www.offensive-security.com
+The Exploit Database is an archive of public exploits and corresponding vulnerable software, developed for use by penetration testers and vulnerability researchers. Its aim is to serve as the most comprehensive collection of exploits gathered through direct submissions, mailing lists, and other public sources, and present them in a freely-available and easy-to-navigate database. The Exploit Database is a repository for exploits and proof-of-concepts rather than advisories, making it a valuable resource for those who need actionable data right away.
+
+This repository is updated daily with the most recently added submissions.
+
+Included with this repository is the **searchsploit** utility, which will allow you to search through the exploits using 1 or more terms.
+
+```
+root@kali:~# searchsploit -h
+Usage  : searchsploit [OPTIONS] term1 [term2] ... [termN]
+Example: searchsploit oracle windows local
+
+=========
+ OPTIONS
+=========
+ -c         - Perform case-sensitive searches; by default,
+              searches will try to be greedy
+ -v         - By setting verbose output, description lines
+              are allowed to overflow their columns
+ -h, --help - Show help screen
+
+NOTES:
+ - Use any number of search terms you would like (minimum: 1)
+ - Search terms are not case sensitive, and order is irrelevant
+
