Thanks for watching!

It’s definitely worth the money. An alternative could be setting up a home lab in VMware or similar. Vulnhub has a plethora of vulnerable VMs.

I appreciate your kind words!

@wiredogsec no problem. Just a normal blue collar dad trying to change my life for myself and my kids. Honestly feeling kinda hopeless. You guys are super smart and technical.. idk man. Cool content

Thanks for the feedback! I’d say that if you understand the hacker mindset, methodology, and have good notes, you’ll probably be good to go. If you get stuck, remember to enumerate, enumerate, enumerate. Pay close attention to the OSINT and EPP course material. A lot of people get stuck there.

Thank you!

I’m glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the support!

It is still a relatively new certification. It’s only been around for a few years. I believe that they view the PNPT as an “equivalent or alternative” to OSCP and CEH. TCM Security has some great courses, which is a big reason why I like them. You should check out purple teaming. It’s a mixture of blue team (defensive) and red team (offensive). The PNPT is on some job listings (Indeed search). www.indeed.com/m/jobs?q=PNPT&l=&from=zrp-searchOnSerp&sameQ=1&vjk=f19711a4c970075f

You need to run lusrmgr.msc and check the “Users.” You’ll see a username in there with the description they are looking for.

have u figured it out yet? im stuck here currently

I actually asked a Sr. Pentester at a recent cyber security conference and was told yes. She stated that she found one on a client’s web app last year. Probably not as common these days, but still around.

Thanks for the support!

Which part of the video are you talking about?

@@wiredogsec I meant like i understand the whole video but i only understand it because it shows you how to do it all. But if i didn't have it showing me the steps i know i couldn't do it. I guess i answered my own question. Just have to memorize and practice.

@@wiredogsec I'm just trying to learn as much as i can. I'm in a cybersecurity training program for new people trying to get into the industry. It's a program by a online college through my work. At the end of the program i get a voucher (assuming i pass the class) to take the comptia sec+ exam.

@@climbing_for_dollars The instructions are in each task. Sometimes, you may have to use outside resources or make modifications to the commands or arguments.

@@wiredogsec Thank you. Your video is very helpful

Welcome to my channel!

I created it with Copilot Designer.

@@wiredogsec well it's one of the better ones I've seen. Great video btw!

The key difference is that the PJPT is only an internal assessment. The PNPT includes an external assessment and an internal assessment.

@@wiredogsec noted and thank you for the swift response! you got a sub 👍

Thanks! Remember to take good notes from the courses, so you can copy & paste commands, take good notes and screenshots as you hack your way through the exam, take breaks as needed, and if you get stuck: enumerate, enumerate, enumerate.

@@wiredogsec thank you i saw your video before appearing for pjpt it really helped and i passed , i hope to do well in pnpt as well

Thanks for watching! I’m glad you enjoyed it!

Thanks for taking the time to watch. Don’t psych yourself out. Take good notes from the courses so you can copy & paste commands, take good notes as you hack your way through the exam environment, remember the hacker mindset, and if you get stuck: enumerate, enumerate, enumerate. Yes, I would like to be on the red team or purple team at the least.

Thanks and good luck! Let me know! I hope you passed it!

Unfortunately I failed. I got the DC password with 30 second left and didn't have time to get persistence. Next time for sure 😁

​@@kevinkehoe9950 lessons learned?

​@@DrThrax009do you mean what I learned from the exam on the 1st take ? If so enumerate EVERYTHING

@wiredogsec I passed 2nd try 😁

Thank you!

The entry level cyber security job market hasn’t been good in a while. I recommend networking with others on LinkedIn and/or at conferences/events. I also recommend learning about how AI can be used to assist you with tasks. Don’t be afraid to start at the Helpdesk or another IT job. You can still gain experience and work your way out of that position and into a cyber security role. Check out these videos from TCM Security: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e37OdJZofs1ogM0si=Hk-p-mddia6099vY kzbin.info/www/bejne/ooi3oZqir9uLkMksi=pVvpp-CQkTfOqllH kzbin.infofSnueozhKCk?si=pfIHUcr0lEFJiOnw

Thanks for watching and I do plan on making videos for that learning path, as well. I am working my way towards it.

@@wiredogsec also, I've been trying to break into cybersecurity for the past like 6 months with no luck. I have Sec+, Net+, AZ-900, and Splunk Core. Any other certs or lab based stuff you'd recommned to break into cyber?

Thanks for taking the time to watch and the feedback. I'll try to slow down a bit.

I didn’t have extensive penetration testing experience, but I did fail the PNPT exam before I took this exam. I believe I took the PJPT, shortly after I had failed the PNPT. I recommend taking the exam right after completing the training. That way the material is still fresh in your head.

Yes, you can use pretty much any resource.

@@wiredogsec ok sorry for asking because i never got any online cert but looking forward to this one . but what makes this certification worth it ? if anyone that can afford it can just look up or get assist online , like why can someone fail ?

@@Kam30079 Questions are fine, no worries. What makes it worth it is if it applies to your career path. I don’t recommend getting a cert if you don’t think it can benefit you career-wise. You can fail the exam if you don’t accomplish these objectives: In order to receive the certification, a student must: Leverage their Active Directory exploitation skillsets to perform lateral and vertical network movements, and ultimately compromise the exam Domain Controller Provide a detailed, professionally written report. Just like in the real world, you can use the Internet. There aren’t any tool limitations, that I know of. Always check their official website for the latest developments.

I believe that the PJPT is more practical and real world based, whereas the eJPT is more CTF-like. eJPT has been around longer, so it may be on more job posts, but IMO the PJPT will better prepare you for the job. PJPT requires the tester to submit a written report that is reviewed and is needed to pass the exam. It also focuses heavily on AD attacks that are commonly seen.

@@soupsammichent kk tnks for the detailed explanation ❤️

@@abhiramcs6581 They pretty much summed it up. Be sure to check out the video from TCM security. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hpjGoH2EepeYeNksi=-vVwItvp4ALp5srg

Thanks for watching!

Thanks for the sub! It depends on your career path. eJPT has been around longer and is probably on more job postings, but PJPT is more practical. It teaches you about commonly used methods to attack AD infrastructure and you have to submit a report. IMO it is more realistic.

This is what is tested, according to their website: In order to receive the certification, a student must: Leverage their Active Directory exploitation skillsets to perform lateral and vertical network movements, and ultimately compromise the exam Domain Controller Provide a detailed, professionally written report.

I’m glad that my videos can help!

Thanks for taking the time to watch!

I’m not familiar with that error. I recommend searching Google. Does that file(s) exist?

?

PJPT should prepare you for the internal portion of the PNPT. The PNPT has both external and internal.

Yes, you can skip it and go for the PNPT, but the PJPT is specifically designed for beginners. I’ve also seen reports of beginners passing the PNPT without taking the PJPT. I recommend doing whichever you’re most comfortable with.

Thanks for the support! I’m glad you enjoyed it!

I’ll definitely need to find some time for HTB.

@@wiredogsec for sure, hit me up if you ever find some time or want to do something in the future. I just really need a hacking partner to share and learn with. Thanks in advance!
