10-Week Professional Certification Programme

Learn how ethical hackers identify vulnerabilities, exploit security weaknesses, and help organisations strengthen their defences through practical, hands-on training.

Curriculum

Week 1 — Foundations of Ethical Hacking
Ethical hacking concepts, penetration testing lifecycle, legal frameworks, scope, rules of engagement, and professional ethics.

Week 2 — Reconnaissance & Information Gathering
OSINT, footprinting, DNS enumeration, social media analysis, and target profiling.

Week 3 — Scanning & Enumeration
Host discovery, port scanning, service detection, and system enumeration using Nmap.

Week 4 — Vulnerability Assessment
Vulnerability discovery, analysis, prioritisation, and scanning with Nessus/OpenVAS.

Week 5 — Exploitation
CVEs, exploit databases, Metasploit, and controlled exploitation techniques.

Week 6 — Post-Exploitation
Privilege escalation, persistence, pivoting, and lateral movement across Windows and Linux systems.
