What Is BackTrack?

BackTrack is the result of the merging of two Innovative Penetration Testing live Linux distributions - Whax and Auditor. BackTrack has been dubbed as the best Security Live CD today, and has been rated 1st in its category, and 32nd overall in Insecure.org. Based on SLAX (Slackware), BackTrack provides user modularity. This means the distribution can be easily customised by the user to include personal scripts, additional tools, customised kernels, etc.

About the Courses

The courses are designed for busy professionals who need to step into the offensive security world, but do not have the time to attend a full blown course. Pre recorded sessions can be viewed in your own free time, at your leisure - and can be played over in case a topic needs further clarification.

A student chatroom and forum allow you to interact with our trainers as well as other students and experience hacking tools and techniques in a real live computer lab. The lab is confined to a local network and is legally safe and sterile for exercise.

Upon completion of the course, you may decide to take the Certification Challenge. In this final exam, your newly learned skills will be tested by a Hack Challenge in an unfamiliar environment. Once the challenge has been successfully completed, you will receive an OSCP (Offensive Security Certified Professional) Certification.

About the Trainers

The trainers giving the online courses are seasoned security professionals with over 10 years of experience in offensive security, pentesting and risk assessment. In addition, all trainers have at least 6 years of experience in public speaking and corporate security training.
