Hey Sparky, :)

They offer 3 courses, for penetration testing,

CPTP - Certified Pen-Testing Professional
CPTS - Certified Pen-testing Specialist
CPTE - Certified Pen-testing Expert

CPTP is almost CEH content... 
CPTS & CPTE is believed to be "okay?!" than CEH.

I'd recommend you ISECOM or SANS stuff...

Better to take up a GIAC certification [GCIH] or 
ISECOM [OPSA / OPST], since they're new and they're
tough to pass.

If you asked me, frankly, these certs are of no use,
unless we want to climb the corporate ladder
consistently and impress our clients ;))

Cheers :)

Hello All,

I just had a quick question pertaining to
Penetration Testing Certifications.  Has anyone
taken or heard much about Mile2 Training? They
provide two training courses/certifications
"Certified Penetration Tester Specialist" (CPTS) &
"Certified Penetration Tester Expert" (CPTE).  I was
wondering what others in the field thought of these
courses/certifications.  They don't seem to be
widely recognized yet, but (is that going to
change)?  I took the CEH course a few years ago and
was thoroughly disappointed with the content and the
course all together.  I was wondering if Mile2 was
different. 

Any comments/suggestions?

Thanks,
Sparky
