Course for Ethical hacking
Ethical Hacking
Heath Adams is the CEO of TCM security, a cyber security consulting firm and an educational institution
on a day-to-day basis. We primarily focus on ethical hacking that is where companies hire us to try to
hack into them to find vulnerabilities and let them know of any security issues they may have before the
bad people find those on their own. This course is actually an extension of a 25 hour it ‘s pretty close to
27 hours now of materials that is on our TCM Security Academy website. A lot of these videos and tools
and ideas have been brought in into 2023 methodologies so not only are there three hours more but a
lot of the videos and content have been recreated for 2023 specifically. The 15 hours that ‘s here it ‘s a
great great resource it gets you started if you love it you love our instruction you want more this course
is 29. 99 all of our courses in fact on the academy if we go over here they ‘re all 29. 99. Get into a little
bit of Wireless testing and legal documents and all that fun stuff.
An external network pen test is looking at an organization ‘s security from the outside this could to be us
trying to hack in from our mom’s basement or from another country. The methodology for external pen
tests focuses heavily on what’s called open source intelligence gathering or oh send we ‘re trying to
gather as much Intel and data about an organization. This is the most common type of pen test that
organizations do in my opinion for two reasons. Compliance organizations dictate that an external
network pen test must be performed annually that is not true for the rest of the pen test. These pen
tests tend to last around 32 to 40 hours on average though if you have a very large engagement that can
go a lot longer. In order to be a successful internal penetration tester you need to understand active
directory methodology in order to perform an internal Network pen test. These typically last 32 to 40
hours though they can run a lot longer depending on the size and scope of the scope they do n’t
typically run shorter though I have seen them run 16 to 24 hours if the network is very small but there is
a checklist that we have to run through.
Wireless pen testing is fairly straightforward you can look up the methodology online find blog posts
about it you just need a wireless network adapter that you can honestly pick up for 30 to 50 dollars at
most. Web app pen tests push closer to 40 hours than anything else unless it were a very very small and
specific web application they ‘re almost always in the 32 to 40 hour range with another 8 to 16 hours for
report writing. The weakest element of any organization is going to be the human you can have a great
environment great policy security everything set up and all it takes is one really nice person to hold the
door open for you and that can lead to catastrophic events. Social engineering and physical pen testing
offer a lot of learning opportunities and training opportunities. These are things that we perform at work
and you may end up performing as well. Mobile penetration testing is a lot like web application
penetration testing in the sense that you ‘re testing against an application except it ‘s on a mobile device
so iOS or Android and then there ‘s specific methodology and techniques related to those operating
systems you may have iot or Internet of Things penetration testing
