Re: OSCP - My Journey - si20 (Starts 22nd Sept)
Thanks guys I really appreciate it! JoJo - I'm not 100% sure how the cert is recieved in the US, I'm guessing it's very well regarded?? In the UK, I definitely think it's becomming the one to have security-wise. I have met people with the CEH and they know alot of theory (which is great!) but they have no practical… -
Re: OSCP - My Journey - si20 (Starts 22nd Sept)
I am also doing the OSCP course at the moment. I'm taking it very slow since I just acquired my CCNA and CCNA Security, but now I can put all my attention to this. Anyways, I was told to go through the material first and then start trying to pentest the lab machines. I'm about 100 pages in as well. I'll probably end up… -
OSCP - My Journey - si20 (Starts 22nd Sept)
I've pondered over the OSCP since the course was run with Backtrack. I've decided that now is the time. Since i've got my BSc degree, i've done the OSWP course and a networking course to make sure my networking was enough to get by. I've read some pretty scary reviews about the OSCP - everyone agrees that the content is… -
Re: OSCP - My Journey - si20 (Starts 22nd Sept)
Well it looks as if I was wrong by 1 day....the course starts midnight TONIGHT! I should probably be very excited but instead, i'm a bit anxious. I've taken on a CTF with friends from work (security guys) and we were told it'd be a fairly easy CTF... Instead, it has been VERY hard, so it has knocked my confidence. Either… -
Re: OSCP - My Journey - si20 (Starts 22nd Sept)
Wow that's pretty disappointing to hear. It's kind of interesting there are some people here who feel the PWK material doesn't give you enough to complete the course and then there are others who say it does. There are some here who say they have received no help from the Admins and others who say they have. I have two Sr… -
Re: OSCP - My Journey - si20 (Starts 22nd Sept)
No offense taken, I hold your input on all things security in high regard. You're right in that I only have my own research based on syllabus, website descriptions and user reviews on the PWK and PTP courses, so it does seem that the PTP course offers more. But I do agree from what I've read and the lab setup that the… -

Another update (28th November). I've spent the past 4-5 hours on a single box. I've got work in the morning....For those who have been following this thread, yep, you guessed it, 4 days of shift work. I wont be able to get back on this until 3rd December now. I booked my exam for the 20th December (because why not, it was… -
Re: OSCP - My Journey - si20 (Starts 22nd Sept)
I apologise to all of those wanting to see my daily progress. I dropped off the radar because: I work 12 hour shifts and once I get home, I don't work on the OSCP - I only work on the OSCP on my days off. This has severely limited the time I can work on the course. The OSCP is HARD - very hard. The PDF/exercises teach you…
