The Only OSWE Review You Need...

[@LeonKaushikDeka]

OSWE is the hardest.

[@DanEather]

I just got my OSWE after 9 months of study and I couldn’t agree more with both your videos!

[@tadii]

it's gruesome isn't it LOL

[@DanEather]

Absolute awful experience lol. A true exercise in self hatred. So glad it’s over…

[@christopherthomas9047]

Thanks! For all your content. Enjoy your videos!! Keep killing it!

[@tadii]

thanks!

[@trevorsparks281]

Congrats man! onwards and upwards. Love seeing your journey!

[@tadii]

Appreciate it!

[@mrtn5882]

Waiting. Notification on.

I found the best preparation for me was playing Web challenges in CTFs every weekend for a good 6months before I started OSWE and writing exploit scripts for every challenge I completed. Typically challenges like this are whitebox so they are really good practice. For example the HTB web "challenges" which are mostly just retired tasks from their CTFs.

[@tadii]

true, i like the whitebox aspect of them. the size of the challenges doesn't necessarily sum up to what you'll see in the OSWE though

[@xB-yg2iw]

@tadii most of the time yeah, they will be much smaller. But a few are a good comparison in scope and size, two that come to mind are Polaris Control and Unearthly Shop (both retired now)

[@whoisPremier]

Great review, congrats on passing!

[@tadii]

appreciate it brother!

[@SecXsecurity]

Congratulations for your achievement ❤

[@amargaikwad8408]

Congrats, man! Can you provide any htb machines list that will be helpful before enrolling for oswe

[@806vinyl4]

Love your work brother, I’m just starting out love the vids

[@tadii]

thank you very much my guy! good luck

[@t3p3s]

Hi, what about "code review" tracks in Pentesterlab? Does it help on OSWE?

[@tadii]

good question. i've seen one or two of the java items that are kinda the same, but not really. it would be a good start though, the pentester labs challenges just don't have as much code to look through

[@Trent_111]

How would you prepare so it wouldn’t take as long?

[@tadii]

quit my job and study all day lol. that's where most of my time went

[@stephenlartiste671]

Hi Tadi. Is thm more than enough to get networking skills or we nedda go through smth like CCNA ?

[@tadii]

CCNA would not be necessary

[@QzSG]

Was it indicated anywhere if u needed to get a reverse shell or do you just need to grab the flag?

[@tadii]

they tell you exactly what you need to do and if you still confused at that point the proctor can provide clarity

[@iSgapetti]

Do you have to have web developer or software engineer experience in order to pass the OSWE? Or a more appropriate question would be, what sort of programming experience do you have prior to this?

[@tadii]

no, you don't need to have dev experience. i don't have much dev experience. reading code isn't difficult, but you'll need to get pretty good at python (or any other scripting language) for automating your exploits

[@iSgapetti]

@@tadii thank you for the feedback. This gives me hope that I might be able to earn the OSWE one day :)

[@lIlIllll1]

Do i really need to be really good at coding before doing this cert? I only know the very basics (I have the oscp)

[@K4T-snaking]

Hello Tadi, I love your contents and spend alot of time for it. But... Why don't U have a "Htb web challenge" series with step by step debugging, rabbit hole, explain and metholody sovle problems. I think some people need it like me. Thanks U, good luck for u Sorry about my English skill :

[@user-hf9gm3yb9c]

Bug bounty/Hall of fame >> OSWE. is this true ?

[@tadii]

yup, anything is better than OSWE honestly lol

[@patrickjason4384]

How are the job opportunities for OSWE compared to OSCP to get an interview for application security role

[@tadii]

can't really say the oswe really made a difference honestly. the oscp got me more eyeballs than all my other certs - doesn't make it the most beneficial with regards to learning though

[@patrickjason4384]

@@tadii if 80/100 jobs recognize and require OSCP how much jobs opportunities OSWE will open, since i am thinking abt taking OSWE for more job opportunities, i also have 3yrs experience as application security engineer but most jobs need certs moving forward.

[@im_anubiz]

Aren't you too old for braces?

[@tadii]

do i look 50 or something?😔
