Course description

This module takes you into the "Offensive Security" mindset. You will transition from simply defending systems to actively hunting for weaknesses.

You will learn the structured phases of an ethical hack: from initial reconnaissance and scanning to exploitation and post-exploitation reporting. The course covers web application hacking, wireless network attacks, and social engineering tactics. Using industry-standard tools like Kali Linux, Metasploit, and Burp Suite, you will practice in controlled, legal environments (sandboxes) to understand how real-world breaches occur and, more importantly, how to patch them. This module is essential for anyone looking to become a certified Penetration Tester or Security Consultant.

What will i learn?

• Footprinting & Reconnaissance: Use OSINT (Open Source Intelligence) to gather data on targets.

• Web App Penetration Testing: Exploit common flaws like SQL Injection (SQLi) and Cross-Site Scripting (XSS).
• Reporting & Remediation: Write professional security audit reports that provide actionable fixes for clients.
