The Pentesting Master Program (PTMP v2) bridges the gap between learning individual security techniques and understanding how professional penetration testing engagements are planned, executed, documented and delivered.
You'll work through a structured pathway — from foundations and core methodology to specialized testing domains, AI-assisted workflows and a full-scope capstone — while practising the scope, authorization, Rules of Engagement and reporting that real engagements demand.
Learners master tools and techniques in labs, but rarely see how they fit into a structured, end-to-end pentest methodology.
Scope, authorization, Rules of Engagement, client communication, evidence collection and reporting are usually missing from practice.
Learning split into isolated domains makes it hard to connect network, web, API, cloud and AD skills into one complete assessment.
You may know how to exploit a vulnerability. But can you run a professional penetration test from start to finish?
Four pillars shape every module, from the first lab to the final capstone.
A structured pathway across infrastructure, applications, specialized systems and emerging AI technologies.
Scope, authorization, Rules of Engagement, testing workflows, evidence handling and professional reporting.
Use AI for recon, scripting, vulnerability analysis and reporting — while building the judgment to validate every result.
Assignments, documentation, collaboration and report delivery in the same tools used across the corporate world.
Modules draw on recognized methodologies and standards for structured, risk-based, professionally responsible testing.
Capture The Flag challenges and an introduction to responsible disclosure through VDP and bug bounty programs.
