Who it’s for
- People with a working foundation in networking, systems and web concepts who are preparing for their first penetration testing certification.
- You should have a foundation in ethical, authorized security testing.
What’s included
- Lifetime access. When the exam moves to a new version, you get that version’s prep free.
- A 25-question practice quiz. A focused check on where you stand.
- A timed full practice exam. 90 questions in 165 minutes, drawn from a 188-question bank (matching the published maximum length and time).
- A study guide. The PenTest+ Exam Prep Guide, 100 PenTest+ Terms to Know and four short, unscored decision reviews on scope, evidence, risk and reporting.
- Every answer explained. Unlimited retakes.
How to use it
Take the practice quiz first to find your weak domains. Study those with the guide, then sit the full practice exam in one session. The exam covers engagement management, reconnaissance and enumeration, vulnerability discovery and analysis, attacks and exploits, and post-exploitation and lateral movement. Practice only where you have documented permission to test. Scores are a study signal, not a pass prediction.
