I wanted to get into research work and that’s how I decided my journey. What caught your attention about the CPENT program? How were you introduced to it? After having all these credentials in hand, obviously your growth is not going to stop. So, it is when I decided to be the best.

Tell me 3 things that you really liked about the C|PENT program. So come before coming to the technicalities of what I like. As when I started my journey into security, I’ve always learned that there are script kiddies and you know, people who follow the tools and stuff. But after doing CPENT my vision has changed, I mean.

It provides motivation to be the best. And I think that’s the best part of this course. Apart from that, yes, real-world scenarios, the labs are the best and the level of detailing into the course outline. I think that is the comprehensive rethink that is the best part of this course. What was your lab experience in the program? labs, I mean I’ve always you know, I’ve appreciated the lab work even before questions as well.

In working on these labs, I think it’s a class apart. So that’s what I believe. What tools or topic from the program do you use on a day-to-day basis? So, I think penetration testing itself is you know across all aspects is something that comes up on the day-to-day basis see tools yes but then after doing CPENT. It is now, motivating me to develop Tools and I think that’s my vision heads now. So whatever penetration testing market available tools, commercial tools are there, yes, that we use, but apart from that. Self-development for the exploits and tools. I think that is where I am more excited about. None other programs than CPENT would have motivated to do so. How has CPENT benefitted your career?
