This boot camp teaches you how to use the tools and techniques used by cybercriminals to perform an ethical hack on your organization. You’ll learn ethical hacking methodologies and gain hands-on hacking experience in our cloud-hosted cyber range, including reconnaissance, gaining access to systems, exploiting vulnerabilities and exfiltrating data.

Syllabus
Training schedule
Day 1
The first half of day one focuses on learning the job duties required of a penetration tester. You will learn the ins and outs of the various penetration testing methodologies required in order for an ethical hack to be used in a business or government setting. You will also delve deep into technical material, learning how to perform network reconnaissance against modern infrastructure.
Day 2
Having learned how to gather information about several targets, we begin day two with narrowing our attack by finding potentially vulnerable systems/services. You will master the art of network scanning and service identification, and gain a deeper understanding of how systems communicate using the TCP and UDP protocols
Day 3
After gathering information about your target system, you will put all that hard work to use when you learn how to exploit those vulnerabilities. You will learn the skills to demonstrate a successful exploit of a vulnerability as well as how to gather additional credentials to exploit vulnerabilities in other systems. You will also learn useful social engineering techniques, including phishing, and methods of attacking physical security.
Day 4
After compromising a target, you will extend your access to all vulnerable systems at your target organization and learn how to covertly exfiltrate data. The second half of day four covers attacking web-based applications and understanding SQL injection.
Day 5
Day five is dedicated toward wireless security, using basic scripts for ethical hacking, covering your tracks and post-engagement activities. You will master the ability to sniff data, clean up all traces of your activities and learn best practices for writing reports and recommending mitigation strategies.

How difficult is it to find security flaws in companies with significant resources? Do hackers still get paid if they fail to find security flaws?
Your experience will vary by company, but security flaws are surprisingly common in the real world. If your penetration test fails to identify any security vulnerabilities, you will still be paid for your time and services.
How much room for creativity is there in an ethical hacking job role? Are there many ways to hack a particular kind of network?
Ethical hacking is a highly creative job role and requires a specific type of mindset, not skillset. As a white-hat hacker, you will uncover the multiple ways malicious actors can break into and/or harm systems — methods that are constantly changing overtime.
