In a nutshell

What this course aims to achieve

Gain an in-depth understanding of the concepts and methods used by cybersecurity professionals to carry out penetration testing.

Five and a half days to understand how an attacker works and run authorised penetration tests, from reconnaissance to the report.

Key challenges

A penetration test only has value within a written framework: scope, authorisation, rules of engagement. Outside it, it is an offence.
Techniques evolve fast: a method must be mastered rather than tools.
The report must be understood by management and by the technical teams who will fix things.

Learning objectives

Explain the phases of a penetration test and the engagement framework.
Carry out reconnaissance, vulnerability analysis and exploitation in a test environment.
Document reproducible evidence and findings.
Write a report with prioritised recommendations.
Prepare for the certification exam.

Detailed programme

1Ethical and legal framework of penetration testing.

Cybersecurity professionals, administrators, technical auditors

Prerequisites

Solid networking and systems background; scheme conditions to be checked before enrolment.

Learning methods

Training with hands-on work in an isolated lab environment.

Learning assessment

Certification exam under the scheme concerned.

Scope of application

The techniques taught must only be used on systems one is explicitly authorised to test; unauthorised access is punishable by law in many countries. Any associated personal certification (lead auditor, lead implementer, manager…) depends on the exam and certification body: the course prepares for it without guaranteeing it. It does not certify the organisation, whose certification belongs to an accredited body.
