Learning Linux for Pentesting

Here is a link for a Linux tutorial for those interested in Pentesting. This tutorial was originally posted by a participant in the Linux Huddle Slack Channel so it it looks familiar that is why. The tutorial focuses on installing a virtual machine, Kali Linux and working at the command line. It is a good primer to Linux, though someone would not be a pentester once you complete the tutorial. But a good set up to those going through the PenTest+ course that need a little help with Linux.

Welcome to the new CIN platform!

This is going to be a great resource and I truly look forward to working with you all to help CIN continue to grow and better serve you. Please let me know if you have any questions or need any help in getting up to speed with the new system. Feel free to post any questions, input, and/or feedback to this thread or drop me a note directly. Thanks,

Pentest+ vs. CEH

Wanted to share with you a comment I made to the president of an educational institution that relates to the CompTIA Pentest+ certification. As you might expect, I'm of the opinion "Certified Ethical Hacker" gets a boost because of the certification title. But I think that is where the advantage ends. In today's email to him I said, "we need to talk about Pentest+ as an alternative to CEH. For background, see: https://resources.infosecinstitute.com/pentest-plus-vs-ceh/#gref".
