Petr, There are 2 very interesting courses from Isecom.org (http://www.isecom.org): These classes focus on the right methodology, ethics, law, understanding of the tests, lifecycles of security tests, organisational aspects, etc... In other words, more than just using the tools, but understanding how to use them in the best way possible. These courses are based on the Open Source Security Testing Methodology Manual (OSSTMM) that is an open source methodology to perform professional and complete security tests. - OSSTMM Professional Security Analyst (OPSA): " The premise of the training course is to provide a variety of hard and soft skills to the security professional. The training course focuses on the analytical skills and security knowledge necessary for security and risk analysis and the business skills required for successful security team and project management. This course is not about just passing the exam. This course is about bringing the combined, international knowledge and experiences of security team leaders and security consultants to bring depth and insight to the training. " - OSSTMM Professional Security Tester (OPST): " The premise of the training course is to support the necessary knowledge transfer for a person to be considered a capable, resourceful, and self-sufficient security tester. The training course focuses on the technical skills necessary for security testing and the business skills necessary for providing justification, efficiency, and understanding contemporary business and security needs.

Hi, could you recommend me some valuable PenTest training ? I know already how to use nmap, ping/traceroute, nessus, hping, nemesis,
tcpdump/ethereal, ettercap, I know how to do passive fingerprint of OS, use various honeypots etc. etc.
However, there is always something new to learn, I'm sure. I did some
research of available training courses on the Internet and I'm not sure which could be valuable to me, as I do not need to spend time learning 'nmap -vv -sS -P0 x.x.x.x'.
Besides programming skills and researching new vurneabilities (and keep
running on learing track), is there any good training out there ?
Thanks a lot Petr Ruzicka --------------------------------------------------------------------------
