Albuquerque, NM (PRWEB) August 14, 2012
EC-Council?s flagship hacking conference, Hacker Halted, will host Advanced Penetration Testing at Hacker Halted Academy. This 3 day course provides penetration testers with the training needed to perform advanced pen testing against known or unknown applications, services, and network systems which are patched and hardened with both Network and Host-based Intrusion Detection/Preventions systems (IDS/IPS) in place.?The learning curve for this program is extremely steep, but the rewards are astronomical when students are presented with the opportunity of learning what it really takes to hack into some of the most secure networks and applications in the world.? Said Joseph McCray of the difficulty of this course.
Eighty percent of the Advanced Penetration Testing course is hands-on hacking labs. The class is not for beginners. It is intended for information security professionals, penetration testers, IT managers, IT auditors, and government and intelligence agencies interested in real world attack and defense. It is strongly recommended that attendees be certified in industry certification such as Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) or Certified Security Analyst (ECSA) or have IT related experience.
Students who complete this course should walk away the ability to know what it really takes to break into a highly secured organization from the outside. They will gain the skills to move around the network without being detected by IDS/IPS, mitigate common security implementations, penetrate desktops, GPOs, IDSs/IPSs/WAFSs and pentest high security environments such as government agencies, financial institutions and other key institutions.
