Online Penetration Testing Training in US

This instructor-led, live training (available online or onsite) is designed to assist participants in preparing for the CompTIA PenTest+ certification exam. The course covers the essential principles of penetration testing and offers hands-on experience with a variety of pen testing tools and techniques. Participants will gain knowledge on how to identify network vulnerabilities, exploit security weaknesses, and provide recommendations for remediation strategies, ensuring alignment with best practices for government and public sector workflows.

PenTest+ evaluates the current penetration testing and vulnerability assessment and management skills required to ensure the resilience of government networks against potential threats. This assessment is crucial for government agencies to maintain robust cybersecurity practices and protect sensitive information.

This course is designed to equip participants with the skills necessary to scan, test, and secure their own systems, providing in-depth knowledge and practical experience with current essential security measures for government. Participants will gain an understanding of how perimeter defenses function and will be guided through the process of scanning and attacking their own networks in a controlled environment, ensuring no real network is compromised. The course will then delve into how intruders escalate privileges and explore the steps that can be taken to secure systems effectively. Topics covered include Intrusion Detection, Policy Creation, Social Engineering, DDoS Attacks, Buffer Overflows, and Virus Creation.
