Instructor comments: The instructor was very well versed on the topic and knew how to apply it to real-life examples. He led the labs and was very excited about the topic which kept the interest of myself and other class members. Sometimes his volume level was a little high- however the room the class was in was very small. Too small for a big personality!
Facilities comments: I was unaware of the facility changes, but that was at no fault of anyone since I was a drop-in for the course. They were very helpful and quick to mediate the issue.
A rigorous Pen Testing program that, unlike contemporary Pen Testing courses, teaches you how to perform an effective penetration test across filtered networks. The course requires you to Pen Test IoT systems, OT systems, builds on your ability to write your own exploits, build your own tools, conduct advanced binaries exploitation, double pivot to access hidden networks, and various technologies.
