Re: OSCP

[NeZa <danuxx () gmail com>]

I am a OSCP it is the best hands on course i ever had, thanks Mati!!!!!

If you wanna learn how to break into servers, how to code a buffer
overflow from scratch, to understand how to research to find vulns
then this is your course.

The exam is a 24 hours hacking, you have 5 challenges which means you
need to hack systems and get admin privileges if you are able to do so
then you are a OSCP otherwise you could just take a 120 multiple
answers exam like CEH without any hands on knowledge at the final.

CEH guys, i am sorry but it is true, CEH has no hands on.

See this video i created it after taking this course, it is not an
advanced one but there is no course which teaches you this:
