I'd personally rather use the free Web Security learning paths on Portswigger. But if people out there like e having a certification to back up their knowledge, don't let me discourage you.
Heyy Buddy what's upp I have blocked by hack the box it's says "you tried to do something funny to our platform." Do you know any solution for this problem. Thanks 🙏
Brother, i just spent 10 days in the exam. It was a roller coaster but i made it through with all flags and what i hope is a good report. 20 days of waiting now 😅 When i passed CPTS, i dont remember feeling this stressed. Definitly great material and worth all the money
Yea, I would like to see some ideas how to organize your notes especially because I am returning to learn again about hacking and this time would like to make some notes and be more proactive about learning and have that knowledge saved somewhere for fast referencing
That name your price training thing you have a link for looks pretty good with a lot of potential. Plans to expand on that with future training or content?
I self host a bookstack instance for notetaking. Works great. The only annoying thing is that I have to VPN into my home network. But it's a free option.
It’s half the price compared to OSWE. I’m currently taking OSWE and it’s a vastly different experience. HTB more walks you through it and gives you “quick challenges”along the way. Whereas OSWE will walk you through it, then give you big challenges at the end. If you haven’t taken HTB courses before, I’d recommend the Bug Bounty course by them, then going into the CWEE. I’ve taken 2 courses from CWEE so far, and it was much more methodology based vs “here’s a vulnerability. Replicate the exploit on a different codebase with more security measures in place”. Which makes it very less challenging and more engaging. OSWE (in my opinion) becomes mind numbing and frustrating when you can solve the challenge, and there is little to no help because “it’s a challenge machine”. Guess I need to “Try Harder” TLDR: Both are fun and you’ll learn a lot. CWEE is cheaper and covers a lot of information. OSWE is currently more “recognized” - but that’s changing.
There will be some overlap obviously, but OSWE is much more refined and deals more specifically with analyzing and locating vulnerabilities in code. As for what's "worth" more, I doubt either really have a positive ROI in terms of jobs. OSWE would definitely be a better resume addition because it's more known, and if you can pass CWEE you probably already have the skills to land a web app pentesting job or already have one, and adding CWEE to that experience isn't going to net you any more salary. Most certs are just a profitability mechanism for the company who issues them, and feed on peoples desire and need for gamification. There are very very few that are actually worth the cost in terms of what you can expect to make because you have said cert. So really, you should only do them if you enjoy them and that's what helps motivate you to learn and continue to improve, in which case, pick which ever one interests you the most.
Despite this whole video being an ad I still checked out the academy and when you go through the intro you will get a paywall. It will cost a bunch of money even to start learning not even just a paywall for a cert. Hard pass from me.
No, you get a few cubes to start learning for free. The Tier 0 content costs 10 cubes per module and you get those back on completion. You need to buy cubes/subscriptions for the higher tier stuff. But yes, it will cost money to take their more advanced courses. They are a company.
@@verduoh yeah but higher tier is actually useful, you have linux basics for 10 cubes, I have used gentoo and arch for 8 years now so it's useless for me
A 8 minute 49 second ad? That’s the longest ad I’ve seen in my life.

Clearly you've not seen much of John Hammond's content then. It's just that usually you don't notice it's an ad.
multiple ads too i think? noticed the sneaky obsidian ad? he is getting professional with it
You have seen many more ads that are much longer, I assure you.
Even if this was an ad, I think the learning path in itself is really good.
If you remove the glasses, you will turn into Superman because of the hair

Did you pay for the platin sub?
@@patrickFREE. no, bought cubes for the modules and then the voucher
7:12 I still don't even understand how to login yet without a guide to follow.
No discounts?
It's already cheaper than OffSec's prices and there's occasional discounts throughout the year
Hi John, could you make a video about how you use and setup Obsidian?
Thank you.

@@_JohnHammond nice. Thanks
Just passed the exam!🎉🎉
How was your journey before taking the exam? I just got started on offensive security stuff.
congrats

I'm doing a series on the skill assessments. Top notch training that I would recommend to anyone wanting to be an advanced Web pen tester
worth fully-watched ad in my life
What do you think about htb defensive certification?
I need to finish my Master's and get the CISSP BUT I'm adding this to my list of things to learn! Thanks for the tip!
You should probably start with the CBBH and/or CPTS first. CWEE is an advanced cert
Can't wait to enroll in the course and tackle the exam! I enjoyed the CBBH and CPTS exams :)
Did you get the certs tho? Or did you just take the exam.
@@smnomad9276 yeah i got both CBBH and CPTS certs. HTB is really stepping up their game!!
@@smnomad9276 yes I do have both CBBH and CPTS certs and I highly recoomend both paths. I think both certs are the best in the market currently.
@@smnomad9276 yup I have both the CBBH and CPTS certs :)
Do you think it's worth doing that when compared with OSWE from Offsec?

@@Daniel-ng8fi Thanks Daniel.
Too bad it's 1400$ my extremely poor ass can't even afford rent let alone this
You can get cubes on a monthly basis with one of the subscriptions, then just get the exam voucher when you're ready
Did John become a Super Saiyan?
HTB still missing binary exploitation certification, Offsec has OSED + OSEE, but HTB has none
They need a mobile cert if they really wanna stand out. There’s no competition there just eMAPT which is trash
I hope there is a discount because it is still expensive
you do video on it security? tell us sandbixie plus
Did Hammond play in that kids
movie Trolls?
It's been a while since I watched your videos and man was I surprised that you went super saiyan 2. Just kidding! Still a huge fan! :)
Well this blow my mind how those exploits is beyond my skills level. But good to know how better code to prevent damage when hosting site?
Plot twist: John is SS Gohan
Good advice on taking your own notes, very underrated!
Hello i got blocked by hack the box how do i unblock this there is not single video on this topic please help me. Thanks 🙏
You'll have to contact their support
For that price I prefer OSWE, not gonna lie...
Might check this out and work towards iteventually.
Sounds like a lot of work, but worth it in the end. Looking forward to enrol.
Hmmm the career jump is looking more and more attractive and straightforward 🤔❤🔥
Thanks 🎉
here is my comment, thank you :D
Cyber security content creators is all about sponsoring these days
Sounds good!
i just watch this cert today and you upload a video about it :)
Is it Sangoku or John Hammond, I'm confused

you can get like more than half the content in academy for 8 dollars a month if you have a student email...
John this is sick and looks pretty insane. Are you going to take it soon?
Far below what pentesterlab offers, sad it's not an objective critique of the quality
Nice haircut mr john
hey john
COOL!
Wow

Fun
I posted you in LinkedIn. Hope that is Ok Sir.
