Just passed about an hour after finishing the course yesterday. This was very helpful especially the explanations and introductions to (and during) the hands on parts. Thanks for not assuming we know things, even though we should.
@@desordenpublico No prereqs are REQUIRED, but you 100% need a solid foundation in networking and security fundamentals at a MINIMUM before you take it on. It's an exam intended for people with like 2-4 years of hands on experience, so while it's entirely possible to start from 0 and study enough to pass the exam, your journey will be a bit easier if you start with the fundamentals.
May I ask if you have any relevant work experience? Or not? I'm thinking of taking the beta exam. I wanna try my complete best to try to pass it since it saves so much money, but I don't have field experience. I just have the trifecta.
@@themevrouwdewi Yes I have been working in IT for 16 years with the last 8 focused on cybersecurity. I also have the a+ network+ and security+. I think what got me over the edge was knowing ports protocols and services, basic stuff that helped me narrow the choices down. No matter the experience you still have to be a good test taker imo. I barely passed.
When you submerge yourself in this stuff if you like it , I promise you it will consume you. You will know if this for you when it’s time to remember acronyms😭 I be writing them down and saying them until I can just randomly say it mid convo over and over. I love that part of IT it let me take what I got in the army knowledge wise and apply it everyday this is what life is about to me
Just passed CySA+ by using Sybex practice tests and Certify Breakfast videos. With this video, and Udemy practice tests, I guarantee I'll pass PenTest+ by June 1. a little over 30 days from now. Thank you very much for posting this video course.
thanks for the course. that was helpful. I just cleared comptia pentest+ exam. I also used mock exams from Skill-cert-pro which are damm close to main exam. I got nearly 80% from their sets. they got detailed explanations and helped me to understand the concepts as well. recommended. This was not a easy exam. Good prep is required to clear this certification. Good luck for the ones who is aiming for it
Thank you so much Sir G for providing such free and valuable content.I have not found full course of pentest+. This video deserve millions of views......... Waiting for COMPTIA Cysa+ full course in the future......... Love for Howtonetworks.......😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Great content and much appreciated! This course keeps getting recommended at the college I attend, Western Governors University.. people say, and I agree, better than Jason Dion's course.
Hi I took the exam it was definitely a challenge I was not sure if I was going to fail or pass the entire time.

Then spend time using TryHackMe Pentest pathway and/or Jr Pentest pathway. I took Jason Dion's Udemy Pentest practice exams over the course of 2 weeks and one do one test a day.

So, the caveat with cybersecurity is that entry-level cybersecurity roles are closer to mid level IT roles. That is to say, unless you get VERY lucky, you're not going to land a cybersecurity job with zero experience. The instances in which people do, it's as a cybersecurity Analyst triaging security alerts. Most folks tend to start in IT and then transition after a few years, though some start in software and/or web development, and then pivot into that side of cyber security. Pentest+ is meant for people with 2-4 years of hands on experience in the cybersecurity field. Pentesting and Red Teaming is not and will never be entry-level. Not what you want to hear, but it's the truth. Though having the Pentest+ may help get your foot in the door for an analyst role, most companies hiring for Cyber/SOC analysts are looking for the CySA+ which is the "sister certification" to pentest+ as it focuses on Defensive security where pentest is offensive. Good luck in your cyber journey!
your literally amazing at explaining this. is it possible we speak on a chat or something ill pay you just to chat and answer few questions i have about pentesting/tech stuff (really just pentesting)
I completely disagree with the other persons advice here. A+ first. I have all comptia certs below pentest + taking pentest next. Go in the order that is set up by comptia. There is a lot of cross over and will be easier as you go through the certs. this is why they haved Stacked certs. So when you get your A+ and NEt + you will get a 3 cert that is a stacked cert. when you get sec+ you will get another stack cert of the trifecta. so on and so fourth. Same when you get the CYSA+ and Pen+. Good luck
maybe depends on what you already know. im only 1 hour 45 min in but i can tell this video will definetly tell you what you need to learn to pass the test whether you learn it here or elsewhere, he for sure mentions comptia pentest+ several times i know ill enjoy the rest of this video for sure
im asking the same questions , sometimes it is, other times people combine the video course with the mcgraw hill aio pentest + study guide. i think thats the way.
why are their so less views, is there noone reslly interested in this? why is it that python courses have 40 million views and course like this only a couple?
Including Kali Linux as a tool is misleading, equivalent to stating that the tools' bag is a tool itself, it contains the tools but not a tool to be used, if so then the other "Pen Testing" Distros are tools whom to be mentioned.

To those that passed, which other resources did you use besides this helpful video?
Thanks for putting this together
Thank you for this. I plan on taking the test in August.

Yes it does - about 60% of it.
@@howtonetworkcom thank you for the quick reply. You have a good style of teaching.
@@howtonetworkcom Will you be working on an updated video? Just curious.
Thank you for this video.
The exam objectives you mention @8:26 are for PT0-001 not PT0-002
ya i realised that too. I’m wondering if you watched the whole video, and if it covers pt-002 or just pt-001?
Did I miss or there is no section in this video showing "How to build lab for CompTIA PenTest+"?
I am new to pen testing, any tip for me

Is this a training for CompTia+. Should we pay for the exam afterwards (after finishing this trainimg).
Do you know a group of study?
