Penetration testing simulates an attack on a computer system, network or application to identify vulnerabilities that could be exploited by attackers.

CompTIA PenTest+ certification demonstrates that you have the knowledge and practical skills to plan and perform penetration tests and to recommend strategies to address identified vulnerabilities.

In this course, you will learn to test, secure, and help prevent vulnerabilities in networks and applications, while preparing for the PenTest+ exam. Class is hands-on with lecture and guided labs.

PenTest+ is an intermediate-level certification in CompTIA’s cybersecurity certification pathway. While not required, CompTIA recommends that PenTest+ candidates have Security+ certification or equivalent knowledge and experience.
