Hiho,
mifa () stangercorp com wrote:I have gone through the eh course and I still do not feel like I can really understand how to pen test.The problem you have is not one of exploits but one of getting a bad education. The EH course you took apparently did not prepare you for ethical hacking or even to approach testing outside the tools and exploits they showcased. That's a scam if they didn't make clear that the class wasn't a show and shoot tools class. And you should be unhappy about that.
The course may have been bad, but: Everyone who believes to be hacker or penetration tester after taking a class of an EH course, is either a fool or being fooled: You cannot learn to be a pentester in five days. But I agree that a good course at least gives you the outline how to become one. The rest is learning by doing and doing it again.
