Why you must attend

Cyber threats are growing. Most organizations wait until they are attacked to take action. This is a mistake. A penetration test helps you find weaknesses before hackers do. Ethical hacking is not just for IT teamsit is for anyone serious about security.

Many organizations believe they are secure because they have firewalls and antivirus software. That is not enough. Hackers do not break in; they log in. They exploit weak passwords, social engineering, and overlooked vulnerabilities. Penetration testing reveals the security gaps you do not see.

This training will not just explain penetration testing it will show you how it works. Through hands-on demonstrations and real-world scenarios, you will learn how hackers think and how to stop them. You are advised to bring along your laptop with VM installed or do not worry, we will show you how to set up the environment on your laptop.
