Expand your testing toolkit beyond the network perimeter to web applications, cloud environments, specialized systems, and people. Through the industry-proven lens of the CompTIA PenTest+ (PT0-003) exam, you'll exploit web application and database weaknesses, including SQL injection, cross-site scripting, CSRF, and API attacks, then study Linux and Windows privilege escalation and other local host vulnerabilities. You'll examine misconfigurations in AWS, Azure, and other cloud environments, test mobile devices, virtual and containerized environments, and industrial control systems, and assess phishing, spear phishing, in-person social engineering, and physical security.
