Re: Feasible to start security career moonlighting as an independent contractor?
I hope your are based in US because it's challenging to make money from pentesting/ethical hacking other places. Most of pentesters: 1. have a name/brand 2. they have been in the game for at least 5+ years if not 10+ years. 3. and all seems to earn money from learning others to become pentester or presenting a tool at… -

Pentester to SOC Analyst journey
Hello all, A few years ago, i was preparing OSCP exam. After years I dedicated myself to becoming a SOC analyst.

Re: Looking for a Pen Testing Mentor
I would suggest getting your CCNA, Sec+, and possibly some Linux certification before you start pushing for a Pentest mentor. Those certification will put you in a good position to start pentesting, as well as asking the right questions to a mentor. I was in your position a while ago, wanting to do pentesting but there's… -
Re: Penetration Testers arrested while testing
There is a thing called a "get out of jail letter," which is written authority to be performing physical or cyber pentesting activities.

Re: Security Certificate
It sounds like OP definitely wants to be a pentester. Security+ might be a good start to help you get your first job, as will CCNA and CCNA Security. That being said, if you want to be more of an app pentester than a networker pentester, I wouldn't delve too far into the Cisco track. OSCP will be your goal as an app… -
Re: eNDP : Network Defense Professional
Maybe it's better to first learn pentesting and then defense? With my pentesting knowledge (OSCP/pentester academy type of knowledge) I like to go deep in this course. I try to find how to block or detect all the attacks that I already know. If you don't know pentesting, may be this course has less value? The risk is to… -
Re: Do you think writing exploits is still valuable
You are talking about the work of exploit researcher, they are highly sought after by companies like madiant ,fireEye, core security, rapid7, tenable and immunity . In regards to webapplication pentest, custom scripts like python had its roots in it. A quick script would means an instant access to the system. And you would… -
Re: Which cert should I go for CEH vs Security+/Pentest+
I'm actually sitting in an Infosec Flex boot camp for the Sec+ next week, so I'd advocate for that cert before jumping straight into the CEH or Pentest+ or something along those lines. My certification path looks something like Sec+, CCNA, CySA+, Pentest+, CASP+, with CEH and/or SSCP thrown in there somewhere maybe. Since…
