Networks remain the backbone of every organization, and attackers who gain a foothold move through them quickly. This network penetration testing training teaches you how to assess external and internal networks, including Active Directory environments and wireless networks, using a structured and professional methodology.
Who should attend
- Penetration testers and aspiring testers
- System and network administrators
- SOC analysts who want to understand attacker behavior
- IT security teams and managers
- After this program, testers can continue with our Red Team & Purple Team or Cloud Penetration Testing training.
Prerequisites
Participants should understand basic networking (TCP/IP, common services such as DNS, SMB and HTTP) and be comfortable with the Linux and Windows command line. No prior penetration testing experience is required.
What you will learn
- Penetration testing methodology, scoping and rules of engagement
- Reconnaissance and external attack surface discovery
- Network scanning and service enumeration
- Identifying and validating vulnerabilities
- Common weaknesses in network services and configuration
- Internal network testing and privilege escalation concepts

- Lateral movement and segmentation testing
- Wireless network security: encryption, authentication and rogue access points
- Reporting findings and recommending fixes
Hands-on labs
Participants practice in a lab network that simulates external and internal environments, including an Active Directory domain. Exercises follow a full engagement: from reconnaissance and initial access to privilege escalation, lateral movement and reporting.
What you receive
- Course materials and lab access
- A network testing methodology checklist
- A certificate of attendance
