Penetration Testing: Python and Kali Linux

• An understanding of network vulnerabilities

Audience

• Penetration Testers
• Security Engineers
• Ethical Hackers

Kali Linux is a Linux distribution created for digital forensics and penetration testing. With Python, users can develop penetration testing programs in Kali Linux.

This instructor-led, live training (online or onsite) is aimed at penetration testers, security engineers, and ethical hackers who wish to penetrate test networks in Kali Linux using Python.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Create Python programs to seek network vulnerabilities.
• Explore and use Kali web shells and shellcode in exploits.
• Apply various Kali tools for penetration testing.
• Exploit systems with Python code.

Format of the Course

• Interactive lecture and discussion.
• Lots of exercises and practice.
• Hands-on implementation in a live-lab environment.

Course Customization Options
