Penetration Tester 101

This course will prepare you to do successful penetration testing for a modern enterprise, including on-premise systems, Azure, and Azure AD. You will learn the methods and techniques that real-world penetration testers in large organisations use to find vulnerabilities, exploit them on a large scale, and show your organisation the real business risk they pose. The course material is supplemented by more than 30 hands-on lab exercises. The course ends with an intensive, hands-on Capture-the-Flag exercise in which you test a sample target organisation with a penetration test and show what you’ve learned.

Benefits of Service

What you'll learn
As a cybersecurity professional, it's your job to find and understand your organization's weak spots and work hard to fix them before bad people take advantage of them. Are you ready? In this course, the most popular Be4Breach course for penetration testing, you will learn everything you need to know to tackle this task head-on.
You will learn how to plan, prepare, and run a penetration test in a modern enterprise in this course. You will use the latest tools for penetration testing and do a lot of hands-on lab work to learn how experienced attackers work and to practise your skills. Then you can take what you've learned in this course back to your office and start using it right away.
This course is meant to help penetration testers get better at what they do and give them more skills. The course is also meant to help system administrators, security guards, and other security professionals understand how a modern attacker thinks and works. Every organisation needs skilled people in charge of information security who can find holes and fix them. This whole course is designed to get you ready for that role. The goal of both the offence and the defence is to keep the real bad guys out.
You will learn the following in SEC560:
Plan and get ready for a business penetration test the right way. Do thorough reconnaissance to help with social engineering, phishing, and making smart decisions about how to attack. Scanning target networks with the best tools will help you find systems and targets that other tools and methods may have missed.
Do safe and effective password guessing to get into the target environment for the first time or to move deeper into the network. Exploit target systems in different ways to get in and figure out what the real business risk is.
Do a lot of post-exploitation work to get deeper into the network. Use Privilege Escalation techniques to get more access to Windows or Linux systems, or even the Microsoft Windows Domain. Do things like internal reconnaissance and situational awareness to find more targets and attack routes.
Move laterally and turn to give yourself more access to the organisation and find risks that surface scans missed. Cracking passwords with modern tools and methods can give you more or better access.
Use different Command and Control (C2, C&C) frameworks to manage and steal from hosts that have been compromised. Most businesses use Microsoft Windows, so you should go after that.
Multiple Kerberos attacks, such as Kerberoasting, Golden Ticket, and Silver Ticket attacks, can be carried out. Conduct Azure reconnaissance Attacks on Azure AD passwords Use stolen credentials to run commands in Azure Make and send high-quality reports The goal of SEC560 is to get you ready to run a full-scale, high-value penetration test, which you will do at the end of the course. The last part of the course is a real-world penetration test scenario, which is a test of your skills in the real world. You will do an end-to-end pen test, using the skills, tools, and ideas you've learned throughout the course to find and take advantage of weaknesses in a real-world sample target organisation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there an increase in cyber threats?

The number, variety, and complexity of threats are growing at an alarming rate. Many specialists in the field of cybersecurity have seen a dramatic increase in external cyber assaults, particularly those launched by criminal groups and foreign governments.

Do threats arise from mobile devices?

The ease of mobile devices and the ability to be "online all the time" are two major benefits. Mobile devices have been extensively used by governments for the purposes of increasing access to government resources and the efficiency of government employees.
However, there are inherent security concerns and additional points of entry to the network when mobile devices are used for communication and data exchange. It's undeniable that mobile malware risks are on the rise, and lost or stolen devices are a major mobile security risk.
The usage of one's own mobile device at work, as well as the need for user identification, both pose additional dangers. A variety of recommendations for government agencies may be found in the NIST paper "Guidelines for Managing the Security of Mobile Devices in the Enterprise" (SP 800-124).

How should we pay for cyber defences?

Cybersecurity spending should go toward developing capacities like cyber tools and education. However, cyber security cannot be an afterthought in the planning stages of any project, programme, or management effort; rather, it must be "baked into" each one from the start. Every company should include cyber security funding in their annual budget since it is a necessary expense.

Isn't cyber security something that everyone already knows?

People know something about cyber security, but not enough to keep themselves safe. Most people probably also know how important it is to keep data safe and that cyber threats are getting worse.Effective cyber security, on the other hand, is something that both the government as a whole and the people who work for or are served by the state government need to keep working on.
This ability needs to be used, tested, and improved on a regular basis through awareness training in order to fight not only aggressive cyber threats, but also cyber events that happen by accident.

Do cloud services cause new problems with cyber security?

Yes. Cloud services promise to offer flexibility, scalability, measured service, and some cost savings, but they also pose more security risks when it comes to accessing and storing government data and authenticating users.
When judging cloud computing in general and the different deployment models, it's important to know how much cloud services cost and how safe they are (public, private, hybrid, community). Cloud services made for consumers that are used by government workers pose extra risks because they might not have strict security controls.

How do I plan a comprehensive approach to cyber security for my business?

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Cybersecurity Framework might be the best place to start. The Framework is a guide that uses the standards, rules, and best practises that are already in place. The Framework gives organisations a common taxonomy and a way to:

Describe their current state of cyber security and where they want to be in terms of cyber security.
Identify and rank opportunities for improvement in a process that is ongoing and can be repeated;
Check how close you are to your goal;
Talk about cyber security risk with both internal and external stakeholders.
