Location: Marriott Grande Dunes Hotel: Myrtle Beach, SC
Cost: $1995

Description:

When it comes to penetration testing, the differentiator between a good penetration test and a great one isn't usually the level of technical skill of the tester. The ability to put their results in a format that the client understands and can use once the tester has finished is the difference.

While this course won't make you a better hacker (the free year of on-line training will), this course will prepare you to deliver the kind of penetration tests that clients will be happy to have you do over and over if you provide services. In addition to testers, this course is ideal for those that want to hold their penetration testers responsible for providing useful information and will show how to get the most ROI out of your penetration testers.

Included:

  • 2 full days of hands-on training
  • Lunch and snacks daily
  • Complimentary VIP conference pass to TechoSecurity 2012
  • Detailed document templates and materials you can use on future penetration tests.
  • One free year of on-line training at The Hacker Academy.
