About this Course
Ready to put your ethical hacking skills to the test and power your cybersecurity career forward?
This hands-on course is ideal for aspiring cybersecurity analysts, ethical hackers, and IT professionals who want to be able to demonstrate their real-world skills in offensive and defensive security to employers.
During this course, you’ll start on the Red Team, using industry-standard tools such as Kali Linux, Nmap, and Metasploit to conduct reconnaissance, exploitation, privilege escalation, and persistence. Then, you’ll shift to the Blue Team, where you’ll practice log analysis, detect Indicators of Compromise, and respond to attacks using OpenVAS and the MITRE ATT&CK framework.
You’ll also explore the growing role of generative AI in cybersecurity, applying AI-assisted reconnaissance, exploit generation, and anomaly detection to strengthen your strategies.
Each lab will challenge you to prove your mastery, culminating in a professional-grade incident response report.
