This course is designed for individuals aiming to specialize in advanced penetration testing and Capture The Flag (CTF) challenges. It provides a comprehensive, technical, and hands-on approach to ethical hacking, equipping participants with practical skills to identify, exploit, and mitigate complex security vulnerabilities in various environments.
This is an ongoing work. The program may hange and evolve.
All modules are being written at this moment, as well as the Labs that will go along those.
We hope you'll enjoy this as much as we enjoyed doing it.
