• CIN will be sunsetting the official CIN app! The app will be turned off on Saturday, August 1st. Thank you to everyone who used the app to post updates. It just was not adopted as much as hoped. This is ONLY the mobile app. The CIN community is not being affected. :)

Looking for an Instructor

I see the phrase "a certified Comptia Security X instructor" with certified in bold. CompTIA does not certify instructors. CompTIA certifies product knowledge. Vetting instructors' presentation skills and product knowledge are something you, the client, do with your own mechanisms.
 
We have an ongoing training and we need a certified Comptia Security X instructor with a deep knowledge of HacktheBox modules for penetration testing
Hi,

I think it could be better if the instructor you're looking for is PenTest+ certified.


Security X does not cover penetration testing. Hope it helps.

Does the PenTest+ covers any Security + module? or maybe i'll look for someone that has taken the certification for both (Security + and PenTest +)

Yes, CompTIA PenTest+ builds upon foundational knowledge from Security+, covering similar security concepts but from an offensive, hands-on penetration testing perspective, validating skills in vulnerability management and ethical hacking. While Security+ covers broader security fundamentals (defensive), PenTest+ dives deeper into identifying, exploiting, and reporting vulnerabilities across various environments like cloud, web apps, and IoT.

Is the training online or on-site?
