Best penetration testing training available
This course transformed me from a security enthusiast to a professional penetration tester. The buffer overflow and Active Directory modules are exceptional. I passed my OSCP exam after this course.

Intense but incredibly valuable
Be prepared to work hard - this is not an easy course. But the skills you gain are unmatched. The privilege escalation and web application attack modules are worth the investment alone.
