Hacking in Practice (HCKP1)

Cybersecurity, ICT Security

Explore practical techniques of offensive security, focusing on social engineering, malicious USB devices and automated payloads, credential theft through keyloggers and phishing, and live demos of voice and SMS spoofing used to trick users into revealing access.

Hands-on exploration of Windows and Active Directory attacks: password extraction, lateral movement, privilege escalation and defense. We also cover WiFi security from WEP to WPA3, mobile-based tools and practical mitigation techniques for real networks.

THIS TRAINING COURSE WILL HELP YOU:

  • Perform social-engineering attacks and evaluate user risk
  • Extract and analyze Windows credentials and AD weaknesses
  • Conduct WiFi attacks from WEP to WPA3 and test defenses
  • Use mobile tools for wireless assessment and on-the-go testing
  • Implement practical mitigations and response techniques

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

  • IT security professionals and system administrators
  • Penetration testers and ethical hackers
  • Network engineers responsible for WiFi and AD security
  • Anyone wanting hands-on offensive security skills
