EvilSec: Truth is, OP is just name dropping. He has NO idea what a Pentester does. Zero Linux SysAdmin knowledge. Zero Kali Linux knowledge. A prospective Pentester would already have done some pre-work on all of these. I bet if i throw a bash script at OP he would be clueless Big shout on the RPi comments. 6 RPis on the homelab and I never belleful. Getting a Miniserver on Monday 1 Like |

Bugcompiler:Thats not true. Programmers usually don't know much about security and mainly focus on functionality, where as pen testers care about the security of systems and less about the functionalities. You don't have to be a programmer to be a pen tester, both lines of work depend on totally unrelated tools and it doesnt pay to be jack of all trades. |

Simple steps to follow: 1. Let her lay down with her legs up. 2. Do some hand massage sizing the length and breadth of the punana 3. Bring out your joystick and tickle the periphery first before gradual test penetration. 4. When you hear her say, "ouch, you wan kill me?" You know you've passed the test. Do this and thank me later oh! 2 Likes |

KVN1: You need a foundation in programming especially the basics so you can understand how it works. I would recommend python 2. A basic knowledge in networking 3. Basic knowledge in html, asp, php and css 4. A basic knowledge on database especially SQL, 5. Basic knowledge on Linux os. After which you will select the best distro suitable to what you want. |

Penetration testing comes with certification that is when you get recognized. Knowledge of python and js and bash is compulsory. Kali Linux or parrot OS Vmware or partitioning Windows and Linux, get certified with Kali. If you can't afford it find free udemy courses ...

Gang, To be completely understood,penetration testing has nothing to do with sexually penetrating a woman. A penetration test, colloquially known as a pen test or ethical hacking, is an authorized simulated cyberattack on a computer system, performed to evaluate the security of the system; this is not to be confused with a vulnerability assessment How profitable is this skill set in the IT market? Here in the United States A pen test analyst earn between 70KUSD to 170KUSD annually. You can google udemy.com, coursera.com These are places where great resources can be gotten to learn these skill set. I hope this helps quote author=Terrence99 post=106596450]Penetration testing is very rewarding especially when you have a subject willing to experience Penetration. [/quote] 1 Like |

KVN1: I'll advise you get the fundamentals down: - networking - understand operating systems (Windows, Linux, mac) - understand how the web works. Learn some programming. Then register on tryhackme.com, I'll recommend going for premium for this one (8 USD/month). Practice practice. Have your own labs too. After gaining some experience with tryhackme.com you can take the elearn security junior penetration tester course and cert (eJPT). Keep reading and practising. Build yourself from there. Go for some advance certs too on the elearnsecurity platform. It's also important to find internships. But remember, penetration testing is just a tiny piece of information security. |
