Ethical Hacking and CompTIA PenTest+ Exam Prep (PT0-002)

Ethical Hacking and CompTIA PenTest+ Exam Prep (PT0-002)

By: Mike Meyers, Michael Solomon

Overview of this book

This course covers the five domains required to study for the CompTIA PenTest+ PT0-002 exam. As an ethical hacker, you will be the good guy and be paid to get into networks, so we will start by learning how to plan and scope a penetration test for a client. Then practice your pen-testing techniques by learning how to use tools like Oracle VM manager, Kali Linux, Metasploitable, and DVWA while working in a virtual environment. We will also learn how to locate vulnerabilities, how to break into a network to run exploits, and how to report the client with those flaws so that they can be fixed. Then, discover how to scan and enumerate (finding) targets in order to acquire intelligence on a network by looking for those targets' weak points. After that, we will examine social engineering techniques, explore network-based vulnerabilities, and learn to intercept traffic using on-path (man-in-the-middle) attacks. The usage of pen-testing tools like Nmap, Nessus, Nslookup, John the Ripper, Immunity Debugger, Aircrack-NG, Wireshark, and others can be learned later on. Lastly, we will cover how to prepare reports, describe post-delivery activities, and suggest remedial measures to your client. By the end of this course, you will be well prepared for your PenTest+ PT0-002 exam.
