Advanced Penetration Testing in Network Security
This course focuses on advanced penetration testing techniques for network infrastructures. It covers topics such as network scanning, vulnerability assessment, exploitation, wireless network penetration, privilege escalation, post-exploitation, social engineering, evasion techniques, and the use of advanced network security tools. Students will gain hands-on experience in ethical hacking, using a variety of tools to assess and exploit vulnerabilities in network environments, with a final capstone project where they will conduct a full penetration test on a simulated network.
