Microsoft is making an aggressive push to roll out a new generation of certs to go along with Server 2008, Exchange 2007, and the… -
Re: OSCP and Other Certifications
Glad you found my input useful here. I had the chance of taking PWB v3 when they first rolled out with it online (March 2010). I have not taken any courses with Offensive Security at Black Hat (it's not in my employers budget or mine). Live training would definitely be more engaging, but for the most part you are on your… -
