Course Description
Are you looking to make a transition into pentesting but are overwhelmed or just don’t know how to get started? With numerous different types of engagements, operational phases, and a constant flood of new vulnerabilities hitting the industry, the journey into penetration testing can quickly become confusing.
In this training course, we will examine the different types of penetration testing engagements and take a deep dive into establishing a repeatable testing methodology for executing quality tests. We will look at some tools of the trade to understand what they are doing under the hood, identify what separates a great finding from a good finding in reports, and really zero in on establishing your own methodology!
By the end of the training, you can expect to leave with a firm understanding of how pentests are executed and a newfound comfortability performing penetration tests. We will also provide numerous resources and tools that will help you pave your way into a pentesting career!
