In the middle of my PNPT exam right now looking for advice and these 4 tips were really helpful for refocusing and not giving up. Thanks so much for this!
Just failed my second time. Thanks for this video... I've been questioning my ability 😅 the exam was fun though, so I'm going to take a small breather and try again. Gosh, I'd love to do pentesting for a living
Im about to take mine in a few days, I'm binging as much as I can about the PNPT exam to prepare myself. The thing is, I don't have a solid checklist structure, that is, I'm not sure exactly WHAT I would do once I even start. Then there's the EPP course which I'm not even sure how....ugh I cant even think of how to complete that sentence. Dude this is intense.
If at all in exam we need to use responder someone should access sharedrive which is not existing and I don't think responder will be useful in real time due this dependency
OK so i finally thought of the question I wanted to ask, you said the PEH is enough to pass the exam, other people have talked about how since this is a real environment, you should expect stuff like Antivirus on there. On the PEH though there's no mention of AV, or if it there is, it definitely wasn't expansive. Did you encounter stuff like that like meterpreter sessions quitting or payloads not working? i want to take it in a few days but if there's AV software and stuff on there, I have a lot of learning to quickly catch up on.
I failed twice so far, didn’t make it pass the initial foothold . I rewatched the PEH course again and I think I know where I went wrong. I also did throwback and I still have to do wrath
So this may be a dumb question and excuse my ignorance. Is the PNPT cert worthy to put on a resume? Or I guess the better question would be, is it recognized by HR reps and recruiters?
@@hackerman2022 Can i ask for how long are you hacking? I am trying to learn for a year now, but i learned only the basics and some tools, you think if i studied like 2 or 3 hours a day i would be able to complete PNPT certificate?
I'm am on the third day stuck on the beginning I'm from Mexico so I have too translate to English. Not sure if the osint findings are needed for the external and internal? I email them not no response I know they say to to attack the website for the osint part but I have done the enumeration on Parr but not sure how-to go. Hopefully I'll figured it out bc I'm strong in the DC part but haven't even break any shell on my third day
bro did you have to use tools like sshutle, proxychains ... to pivot to the internal?? bqz in the course heath doesnt teach tools like that. can you tell how did you manage to pivot to the internal? is the pnpt bundle enough to pass the exam? i think im overthinking by watching tryhack me rooms like wreath,throwback,holo...
Bro I been on the initial foothold phase for 3 days straight twice. (On my second attempt) and I still can’t figure it out. I’m going as simple as I can but nothing is working.
When I did mine there was a website that you did OSINT on, collected some emails, then used those emails to brute-force a login somewhere. Not sure if the exam has changed now.
@@hackerman2022I have the “other site” I need to login to. Got the emails from the public facing site. Also used the information provided by TCM to gain access. None of it is working though. Can’t say too much for obvious reasons but I pretty much confirmed these usernames are the correct ones.

did you pass
How did it go?
did you make it?

Thanks for sharing man. I think failure stories should be heard as much as success stories.
You can do it! Don't overcomplicate things
Lol I completed per and started win priv escalation. Seems vast . Thanks for correcting me. I will revise per now.
Thank you for this video.
Thank you for sharing this. It gave me a bit of confidence after a lot of time with study and practice.
It is a bad cert when you need the good wordlist...
can you tell me why is it so?
Alright i'll take your word for it. I'm on a busy busy schedule, but I'll do it in 2 or so months once I'm free.
I’m surprised the OSINT course didn’t help considering how much that’s talked about for the initial access.
Also, it's 5 day exam, so I think it's more than enough
I know you said the PEH course is enough, but the OSINT course and external playbook are not? thanks in advanced!

@@sscoconut1265 probably did not lol
I gain foothold and im stuck at the last machine for 3 days now, starting to question my intelligence
how to gain the first foothold ?
I’m on the second to last machine 😩 and stuck!! Feel like I’ve looked thru everything
did you pass?
If at all in exam we need to use responder someone should access sharedrive which is not existing and I don't think responder will be useful in real time due this dependency
Think again... when i passed it responder was used as the second steps... it is heavily used in real world pentest
@@trustedsecurity6039 bro did you pass?

Initial foothold is easy, don't overthink it. Try the most basic stuff first.
@@hackerman2022 Can you please let me know how many days did it take to prepare and complete the courses?
@@reetujha4511 Depends on how much time you want to dedicate to it. I think it took me a week or two.
@@hackerman2022 Thank you for your quick reply
@@hackerman2022 Spent 4 days now banging my head against the intial foothold after crashing my motorcycle. Needless to say I'm miserable.
Thanks for the advises! If I can't take days off of work do you think that is still doable?
Depends on how prepared you are. I'd say starting on Friday evening and finishing before the weekend is up should be doable if you're prepared.
@@hackerman2022 Gotcha! thanks man
TCM SECURITY certification is recognise from companies?
any advice on ejpt? I see more posting for jobs wanting ejpt ... which one would you recommend? just passed sec+ btw
So this may be a dumb question and excuse my ignorance. Is the PNPT cert worthy to put on a resume? Or I guess the better question would be, is it recognized by HR reps and recruiters?
It's a solid question, not dumb. I have mine on my resume, if you have room for it throw it on there, can't hurt :) Don't forget to subscribe :)
Hello
If you dedicated two hours every day, how much time you need to prepare for this certificate?
That really depends on how well you use those two hours. I would say you could get the prep course done in a week for sure.

@@hackerman2022 from where can i learn more about network pivoting?
@@xoro163 did u find any good resources for the pivoting section? i feel the same was as i dont think tunnelling was really taught in the PEH

do you have discord server?
Would you say eJPT is more difficult than PNPT ? Or viceversa?? Thanks
eJPT was easier for me.
@@hackerman2022 thanks)
AV and egress bypassing is not covered in peh but we see that in pnpt exam list. Do we need to learn that ourselves?
I don't recall having to do any AV evasion on the exam. But it would be good to learn for the OSCP!
@@hackerman2022 OSCP dont need it too... you need it for CRTO or OSEP but def not those entre level course
Lol come on guys. If u see Defender. Just turn it off. That is av evasion
What about EJPT?
What about it?
@@hackerman2022 Do you recommend something to do before go direct to EJPT, it's enough TCM security course?
