Certified Virtualization Security Expert, Part 4 of 6: PenTest Tools and DMZ

LearnNow Online
Updated Aug 23, 2018

Course description

What are the tools of a penetration test? This course will answer that as well as cover vulnerability assessment, password cracking, how to disable auditing, rootkits and alternate data streams. Then it progress to three configurations of DMZs, hardening and isolating, layer 2 security options and separation of duties. Finally threats like SSL renegotiation and web access vulnerabilities will round out the course.

Each LearnNowOnline training course is made up of Modules (typically an hour in length). Within each module there are Topics (typically 15-30 minutes each) and Subtopics (typically 2-5 minutes each). There is a Post Exam for each Module that must be passed with a score of 70% or higher to successfully and fully complete the course.


Prerequisites

This is part 4 of the series.
