- Includes Assessment
- Earns a Badge
It is important for security professionals to be aware of various security assessment and penetration testing techniques and methods. In this course, explore key assessment techniques like intelligence fusion, threat hunting, threat feeds, advisories and bulletins, vulnerability scans, and false positives/false negatives. You will also examine the fundamentals of penetration testing including black/blue/gray box methodologies, lateral movement , privilege escalation, persistence, and pivoting. Other topics include passive and active reconnaissance as well as the different exercise teams. This course can be used in preparation for the CompTIA Security+ SY0-601 certification exam.
