Course Overview4:22
A quick overview of the course and how to get the most from what the course has to offer,

Video - Section 2 Overview0:44
A short overview video of the expectations for building your virtual lab environment using VirtualBox.
Video and Lab - Creating a Virtual Install of Kali Linux Using VirtualBox12:11
In this short video and lab, you will learn how to create a virtual install of Kali using VirtualBox. Students will need one virtual install of Kali using either VMWare or VirtualBox depending on their preference.

Video - Adding a NAT Network in VirtualBox 7.0.22:12
From time to time, Virtualbox will not have a network available for some network types. In this video, we see how this can be easily fixed.
Video - Fix Duplicate IP Address Issue With VirtualBox1:48
When configuring two or more devices to use the same network type, you may encounter an issue with VirtualBox issuing the same IP address to both devices This is an easy fix.

Lab File - Capture the Flag Walkthrough - Toppo0:01
In this lab, you will be shown how to gain root access to a virtual machine designed as a Capture the Flag (CTF) exercise. This CTF is rated as easy. These walk-throughs are designed so students can learn by emulating the technical guidelines used in conducting an actual real-world pentest using as few automated tools as possible.
Video - Lab Preparation for CTF Toppo4:20
A short video on how to set up your lab environment for the Toppo CTF exercise.
Video - Recon, Enumeration, gaining access, post exploitation11:21
In this video tutorial, students will learn how to recon, enumerate, gain access, and perform post-exploitation of the Toppo server to gather information and determine which attack vector to use. Ethical hacking can be divided into a sequence of phases. When put together, these phases develop a complete hacking methodology for performing a penetration test.

Lab File - Capture the Flag Walkthrough – Lampiao0:01
In this lab, you will be shown how to gain root access to a virtual machine designed as a challenge the flag (CTF) exercise. This CTF is rated as intermediate. These walk-throughs are designed so students can learn by emulating the technical guidelines used in conducting an actual real-world pentest.
Video - Lab Preparation for CTF Lampiao6:14
In this short video tutorial, students will learn how to prepare their VirtualBox lab environment for this CTF exercise.
Video - Recon, Enumeration, Gaining access - Lampiao13:52
In this video tutorial, students will learn how to footprint and enumerate the Lampiao server to gather information and determine which attack vector to use. Ethical hacking can be divided into a sequence of phases. When put together, these phases develop a complete hacking methodology for performing a penetration test.
Video - Exploitation, Privilege Elevation - Lampiao12:43
In this video tutorial, students will learn how to how to find an exploit, download the exploit, compile the exploit and execute the exploit on the target to gate root access. Ethical hacking can be divided into a sequence of phases. When put together, these phases develop a complete hacking methodology for performing a penetration test.

Lab file - Lab Preparation - DC-10:01
In this lab, you will be shown how to gain root access to a virtual machine designed as a Capture the Flag (CTF) exercise. The credit for making this VM machine goes to “DCAU,” and it is another boot2root challenge in which the goal is to get root access to complete the challenge.
Video - Lab Preparation2:21
In this short video tutorial, students will learn how to prepare their Virtualbox lab environment for this CTF exercise.
Video - Recon, Enumeration, Gaining access - DC-17:56
In this video tutorial, students will learn how to footprint and enumerate the DC-1 server to gather information and determine which attack vector to use. Ethical hacking can be divided into a sequence of phases. When put together, these phases develop a complete hacking methodology for performing a penetration test.
Video - Exploitation, Privilege Elevation - DC-16:37
In this video tutorial, you will learn how to how to exploit and to gate root access. Ethical hacking can be divided into a sequence of phases. When put together, these phases develop a complete hacking methodology for performing a penetration test.

Lab File - Lab Preparation – SickOS 1.10:01
This CTF gives a clear analogy on how hacking strategies can be performed on a network to compromise it - and allows you to do it in a safe environment. The VM is very similar to labs faced in OSCP. The objective is to compromise the network/machine and gain administrative/root privileges on it.
Video - Lab Preparation – SickOS 1.14:35
In this short video tutorial, students will learn how to prepare their VirtualBox lab environment for this CTF exercise.
Video - Recon, Enumeration, gaining access, post exploitation - SickOS 1.116:08
In this video tutorial, students will learn how to footprint and enumerate the SickOS server to gather information and determine which attack vector to use. Ethical hacking can be divided into a sequence of phases. When put together, these phases develop a complete hacking methodology for performing a penetration test.
