CompTIA Pentest+ (PT0-002)
Class
Javier Irizarry Riveiro
The CompTIA PenTest+ course is an advanced program tailored to train individuals in the practices of systematic penetration testing and vulnerability assessment. This course equips participants with the skills necessary to conduct hands-on penetration testing to identify, exploit, report, and manage vulnerabilities on a network. Upon completion, students will be able to perform penetration tests using a comprehensive and repeatable process and prepare for the CompTIA PenTest+ certification exam, globally recognized as a standard of excellence in the field of penetration testing. This course is ideal for cybersecurity professionals, system and network analysts, and anyone interested in enhancing their knowledge of security through offensive measures.
