Network penetration testing, often referred to as “pen testing,” is a proactive security measure aimed at identifying and exploiting vulnerabilities within an organization’s network infrastructure. Ethical hackers, also known as penetration testers, simulate cyberattacks to uncover security weaknesses.
These tests can target web applications, APIs, endpoints, and physical controls, and typically include both internal and external tests. Internal tests simulate attacks from within the organization, such as an employee with malicious intent, while external tests simulate attacks from outside the organization, targeting internet-facing assets like servers and websites
This course is designed to equip individuals with the skills and knowledge needed to perform effective network penetration testing. It covers various aspects of pen testing, including information gathering, scanning, enumeration, exploitation, and reporting. The course is suitable for aspiring network penetration testers, ethical hackers, IT professionals seeking specialization, and security enthusiasts. By the end of the course, participants will have hands-on experience and a deep understanding of how to identify and mitigate potential security risks in network environments.
