CompTIA Pentest+ Certification Training - (PT0-002)
CompTIA Pentest+ ( PT0-002) Certification Training Overview
In this course you will learn latest pen testing techniques, attack surfaces, vulnerability management, post-delivery and compliance tasks. The CompTIA PenTest+ certification is a vendor-neutral, internationally targeted validation of intermediate-level penetration testing (or pen testing) knowledge and skills.
The skills covered by CompTIA PenTest+ help companies comply with regulations, such as PCI-DSS and NIST 800-53 Risk Management Framework (RMF), which require pen tests, vulnerability assessments and reports. CompTIA PenTest+ is approved under the Department of Defense (DoD) Directive 8140/8570.01-M and under ANSI/ISO standard 17024.

Course Description
Learn penetration testing with the CompTIA PenTest+ (PT0-002) course. This highly hands-on course gives participants experience in network and system penetration testing. It covers all of the exam objectives for the CompTIA PenTest+ PT0-002 exam. Also included is an extensive step-by-step 47 page Lab Setup Guide that details every aspect of setting up a virtual environment so you can practice all aspects of this training course. We believe this is one of the most comprehensive courses covering penetration testing available anywhere.
This course takes the learner step-by-step through hacking and exploiting each network and system type. Tools used in the activities are mostly Kali Linux-based. A broad range of real-world examples used by penetration testers and red teams are covered. The CompTIA PenTest+ certification is a much-sought-after security certification. It is the final step in achieving the new CompTIA Network Vulnerability Assessment Professional (CNVP) or Network Security Professional (CNSP) stackable certification.ization
