In this course you learn to discover weaknesses in your network using the same methodologies as hackers such as footprinting, enumeration, exploiting and escalating privileges. You acquire the knowledge to systematically test and exploit internal and external defenses by following an established methodology. Exploit frameworks are used to accomplish these tasks. You also learn countermeasures such as patching in order to mitigate and reduce risks to your enterprise. Who will benefit from this course? This course is beneficial to Blue and Red Team members, security consultants, auditors, firewall/IDS personnel, those responsible for securing enterprise systems from unwanted intrusion, and others involved in cyber security measures and implementation. Learning Objectives You Will Learn How To:Deploy ethical hacking to expose weaknesses in your organisationGather intelligence by employing reconnaissance, published data and scanning toolsProbe and compromise your network using hacking tools to test and improve your securityProtect against privilege escalation to prevent intrusionsHands-On Experience:Executing advanced port scanningPerforming injection attacksHijacking web sessions with XSSModifying data flows with man-in-the-middle attacksDefeating stateless firewalls, IDS and antivirus software
About this course
The course requires an understanding of Information Security fundamentals such as basic attack strategies, exploitation of vulnerabilities and an awareness of basic operating system and network functions.
