This includes teaching individuals how to build a world-class cyber range, where they can practice and perfect their attacks and defense strategies. Additionally, the course covers attacker tradecraft against modern Active Directory environments and end-to-end hacking, from initial access to action on objectives. All of the attacks taught in this course are mapped to the latest industry standard frameworks, such as the OWASP Top 10 and the MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise Matrix. This ensures that individuals are learning the most up-to-date and relevant techniques that are currently being used by real-world black hat attackers.

Another important aspect of this course is blue team strategies. Individuals will learn how to detect and block red team aggressors, as well as new bug bounty reconnaissance techniques that are being used on platforms like HackerOne and BugCrowd. The course also provides practical steps for getting a job in cyber security, including how to write an awesome penetration testing report that will impress managers.

In terms of technical requirements, it is recommended that individuals have a HacktheBox VIP subscription (although it is not required) and 16GB of RAM for the lab environment. Ideally, 32GB of RAM is recommended for optimal performance.

One of the best things about this course is that it provides hands-on experience through a lab that is completely isolated from the internet. This allows individuals to learn real-world attacks through experimentation and, since it's their own lab, they will have access to it forever. This is truly the best way to learn and is not limited by cloud costs or monthly limitations.
