I just saw this review and i love it. I got to say that your journey is inspiring. I'm working through the Bug Bounty path at the moment and then will go onto the Pentester path.
Completed the job role path this morning and plan to take the exam after Christmas. To say that the role path alone was a lot of work definitely understates this.
Reading through the comments and remembering that this question popped up a few times in my head.. When people say the Pentester jobrole path + cpts exam is MORE than enough/over prepared for OSCP to pass, do people then STILL go through the OSCP material/labs, or does the HTB path completely REPLACE Offsecs course/material? 🤔🤔🤔 Thanks!
Thanks for replying @@overgrowncarrot1 🙂 So then knowledge wise there is no need for their wonky material as the HTB path covered all +more and the labs, aside from the practice itself, prepares a bit for how the actual exam machines will/might be?
Congratulations Ryan! Failed my first attempt with 11 flags after spending 4 days on flag 9 haha, also just got my review, doing a retake in a couple days, Happy for you man :)
Just looking at HTB discord and you will see about 100 posts on did you pass flag 9 lol. That is going to be a meme soon. It will be like try harder, except people are just going to say flag 9 lol
@@overgrowncarrot1More like over 200 comments 😆Funny thing is, flag 9 was actually easy, you would not believe what I was stuck on man, one of the initial vectors for flag 9 wasnt explained in the course properly and I had no prior practice on that until after the exam(cant divulge what that was here cause of ToS) but still it was an awesome experience! Hoping to get the remaining 3 flags. Did you get all flags?
Huge red team noob, I've been mostly focused on blue. I tried going through CPTS as my first course and holy shit it broke me pretty hard. decided to go for PEH route first. Good to hear that CPTS is a monster, def moving towards it eventually, nice review!
As a first course, I would quit lol. Good job at sticking with it and going the PEH route. I am sure after that route more of the CPTS route started to click and a lot of ohhhhs happened lol
Thanks trebds, for the ones that do not know trebds is always on chadbnoob's discord and always attempting new boxes, starting conversations on machines and is always actively learning something new. He helps the community all the time on the discord and I feel pushes himself to learn more than anyone else I have really met.
Interesting, I am thinking about their new senior web pentester path, so hearing that this was the best one so far for network pentesting certs that you've come across I'm wondering how good their new web one is.
I feel like they would only move up from here. I have seen a few people already talk about the path being amazing. They are truly setting the bar high for other organizations to try and keep up.
Doing the exam now and keep laughing to myself hearing your voice whenever I think something will get me SYSTEM. “Huh, this was supposed to get me NT AUTHORITY…? HELL NO IT DOESN’T!”😂 4:13
@@overgrowncarrot1 got all the flags and submitted the report… phew, wish I’d listened to the advice of starting the report early - had a mad rush at the end copying from Obsidian 😅Question: how long did it take you to hear back from htb with the result?
Just heard back that I passed! Super happy and relieved about that. My plan next is to get the OSCP because I don’t have it and well, work is paying for it 😎. I’m curious to see how the two courses and exams compare.
Congrats! Could you please mention other things about ? What you need to do to know for sure that you are ready to take the exam after you complete the path ? I know that you mention that the job path is enough, but sometimes I”m filling like I would like to test that 😅! Thank you in advance, congrats again and keep up the good work, I would mention that I”m a soc analyst and have already the ejpt!
Congrats on passing! This is something I plan on doing after I take the OSEP. Roughly how long did it take for you to go through the path and how much time were you putting in?
About 3 months at a couple hours a day. However, at one point for about a week I was able to complete around 12 hours a day of stuff and obviously during that time knocked out a lot of it
Has mentioning the completion of this cert helped when looking at jobs or ur current job ? I’m an info sec analyst looking to get into pen testing so I really appreciated your video man
I am in the military so this cert doesn't really do anything there. I don't retire from the military for a other year or so, but when I do retire I feel like for HR the OSCP does it, for actually knowledge and knowledge base assessments when looking for a job CPTS proves it
I failed the OSCP back in December. Feels like the course work didn't prepare me well for the exam. Planning on going through the CPTS first to over prepare for the OSCP. Plus I want to actually be skillful in the field.
Those two things are totally different, but I would say you have a better foundation for the web attacks taught throughout the penetration tester job role path.
This is great, very difficult at times and you be extremely frustrated at times when doing it. I feel more frustrated than OSCP, however, you learn a lot more
@@overgrowncarrot1 ya i saw that but the thing is to buy there training materials for ecppt from ine you have to be a premium member so i dont think i will get that as its almsot 700 dollars for that material for the subscription to get that material and thats really no okay so maybe another cert i just got the ejpt so thats why i preffered ecppt next but thought like ejpt the training would also come with the voucher but saw now thats not the case
if i do the cpts path would that be enough for ecppt as i think that is a bit more easy in difficulty than cpts as i just came from ejpt @@overgrowncarrot1
1 year of silver annual subscription including 1 exam(like CPTS) is 490$ I don't know what it adds up to, if you buy the cubes manually for the whole path and then the 210$ for the cert alone..? Anyone knows? (If you are a student with a valid student email address, the path is included, so its 8$/month for x months + 210$ for the exam) Given one is Not a student, is there any other/cheaper way of paying for the Job role path + exam, aside from silver annual, or is that it?
@JakartaMax Thank You sir for your advice, I'm a student and I can't afford OSCP that's why I'm thinking about CPTS because it's better than OSCP in terms of Knowledge and skill but at the end it's not more popular. Again thank you ♥️
@@48h1 Don't worry. OSCP is stupidly expensive. But... if you take their own courses, CEH is EVEN MORE expensive, and it's just a damn multiple choice test! And if you want to use a different material/course to prepare for it, you have to pay a fee for them to "check if the training is valid", and if they decide(..) it's not, the fee is gone..... Some really shady scammy shit going on with CEH. A shame, that this useless cert is still so "well known" amongst recruiters! 😕
You can simply pay someone to do it in any of the exams... with a fake ID you can pay someone to do all you comptia exams, OSCP with a fake ID, any non proctored exam you can pay someone to take it. If you really wanted to you can pay got flags for HTB seasonal machines lol, people actually do that. Amazingly enough you can buy services for everything in the world.
@@overgrowncarrot1 im now questioning myself if it is worth finishing my cybersec degree.. i could simply selflearn and shit on all those moneymaking certs and university
I am like 90 percent through the job role path for it, don't think I will actually take the exam for that one. If an employer paid for it I would, or if an employer wanted me to have it before starting a certain position I would. I feel that just the paths themselves, like I have said before, are amazing training.
I wouldn't be able to do anything like that for a while since I don't have my whole computer with me, it will take a few months to even start the process
Someone else has talked to me about it, the real problem is that there are so many different attacks, it would really just be going through a bunch of machines. And all different types of machines like web attacks, Linux priv esc, windows priv esc, lateral movement and everything else.
Nah, disclosure of flag number is allowed, heck even HTB discloses the number of flags and you can also view that on the certification page on the website, altho disclosure of number of machines is a violation of TOS
So it all depends, you can do a silver payment per month and then do the course that way. I have a student subscription so it is 8 dollars a month for up to and including tier 2, and 210 dollars for the exam. Or you could just buy the cubes, however that way is more expensive in the end.
@@overgrowncarrot1congrats on your CPTS! I’m wondering the student subscription can cover all of the modules included in the penetration tester job path? Or will I need to pay extra? Are the modules Tier III and IV necessary for the CPTS?

It really is some of the best training. Have fun with the Penetration Tester Job Role Path
echo the sentiments of many - absolutely well done
Completed the job role path this morning and plan to take the exam after Christmas. To say that the role path alone was a lot of work definitely understates this.
Have you done the exams now?
Congratulations! Looking forward to getting started on this later this year.
It was a lot of fun, the job role path really sets you up for it.
Congrats! I'm just getting started in my journey. I have been looking at this one.
It is rough but academy will teach you everything you need to know.

Is the penetration tester path sufficient for CPTS, or should we have specific knowledge prior to the penetration tester path?
It is sufficient, but you need to understand everything taught
I did the CPTS path 100% but failed my 1st attempt at OSCP. 😞 I retake it next month. Congrats!!
You will get it this next time.

Good content . How do you take note for the HTB academy course .
I used obsidian
What are the prerequisites, if any, before starting the job role path?
Thanks for the great review and Congratulations :))
There are not any, however you should have an understanding of linux command line and know how to use kali linux or parrot
godly effort and skill, congrats brother

Congrats Ryan! I just recently get my eWPT, do you think is enough to do the AD modules in htb academy for CPTS?
Those two things are totally different, but I would say you have a better foundation for the web attacks taught throughout the penetration tester job role path.
Can I, as a student with no professional experience, pass the CPTS exam?
I have no clue what you already know and will never be able to answer that question
I am really hating the OSCP training if you would even call it that. I was thinking of doing this. Seems like you recommend?
This is great, very difficult at times and you be extremely frustrated at times when doing it. I feel more frustrated than OSCP, however, you learn a lot more
