Kali Linux Team to Offer Free Access to Penetration Testing Course

Free Access to Penetration Testing Course, Kali Linux, has announced that they will be releasing a free video training course later this month on Penetration Testing with Kali Linux (PEN-200/PWK), which will be offered in the form of a live-streamed course.

During the course, you will be prepared to take the Offensive Security Certified Professional (OSCP) examination, which was conducted in person before the pandemic started.

While live training ended for a period of time during the pandemic, companies created programs that would be available remotely or online instead.

Offensive Security launched the ‘OffSec Academy’ in support of this transition, which is an online course consisting of 13 weeks in length that prepares users for the OSCP examination.

As part of OffSec’s recent announcement, the company will now be live-streaming its online offering through the Twitch streaming platform ‘OffSec Live,’ which is an evolution from its online offering.

From June 22nd, 2022 through November 30th, 2022, members of the PEN-200 class will be able to stream every Wednesday and Friday from 12:00-1:00 PM ET.
