Embark on a transformative journey in ethical hacking. This course begins with the fundamentals of penetration testing, where you'll set up a robust pentesting lab using VirtualBox and Kali Linux. As you progress, you'll delve into Linux essentials, networking tools, and terminology critical for effective hacking. The hands-on approach ensures you understand the theory and apply it in real-world scenarios.
Intermediate sections cover passive and active information gathering, where you'll master tools like Nmap and techniques such as Google hacking and DNS zone transfers. You'll also explore web application penetration testing with a focus on OWASP tools, BurpSuite, and various injection attacks. Each module builds your skills progressively, preparing you for complex challenges.
In advanced stages, you'll tackle wireless penetration testing, system hacking, and exploitation using Metasploit. The course includes specialized modules on MITM attacks, Python basics, and developing tools like backdoors, keyloggers, and brute force attackers. By the end, you'll have a comprehensive skill set ready to tackle any cybersecurity challenge.
This course is designed for aspiring ethical hackers, cybersecurity professionals, and IT enthusiasts. A basic understanding of computer networks and operating systems is recommended but not required. Beginners can start with the foundational modules, while more experienced individuals will find the advanced sections challenging and enriching.
