CompTIA PenTest+

Objectives

Cybersecurity remains a critical priority across every industry, with new privacy breaches making headlines almost weekly. As organizations scramble to defend their data, penetration testing has
emerged as a vital and highly lucrative skill set. This course bridges the gap between theory and practice by introducing you to core offensive security methodologies through a hands-on, simulated
pen test for a fictitious organization.

Recommended Experiences

• Intermediate knowledge of information security concepts, including but not limited to identity and access management (IAM), cryptographic concepts and implementations, computer networking concepts and implementations, and common security technologies.
• Practical experience in securing various computing environments, including small to medium businesses, as well as enterprise environments.
• You can obtain this level of skills and knowledge by taking the CompTIA® Security+® course or by obtaining the appropriate industry certification.
