CFI2086 — Introduction to Ethical Hacking
CFI 2086 - Introduction to Ethical Hacking CFI 2086 - Introduction to Ethical Hacking Hours/Week: Lecture 2 Lab 2 Course Description: This course covers the three major phases of penetration testing (reconnaissance, vulnerability analysis, and exploitation) in detail. Course activities provide opportunities to discuss and demonstrate how to prepare a final report tailored to maximize the value of the penetration test from both a management and technical perspective. Course activities include a comprehensive hands-on exercise, conducting a stepwise penetration test against a hypothetical target organization. Course topics also include the limitations of penetration testing techniques and other practices that can augment penetration testing to find vulnerabilities in architecture, policies, and processes.
