CPENT | Certified Penetration Testing Professional

Rewriting the standards of penetration testing skill development with the Certified Penetration Testing Professional or the CPENT certification program, for short. What makes this program unique is our approach that provides you a chance to attain 2 certifications with just one exam. The key philosophy behind the CPENT is simple – a penetration tester is as good as their skills, that’s why we urge you to go beyond kali, and go beyond tools. Not that we don’t believe in the OS or tools. Candidates with an over-reliance on Kali tools, will find it incredibly difficult to adapt to the multi-disciplinary approach of the real-world penetration testing engagements. We urge you to still go beyond and explore the vast horizons of penetration testing that differentiate the great from the good.
