Title: OSWP Exam Post by: PacketDicer on August 29, 2012, 05:57:13 PM I just took the exam a few weeks ago and it was not what I expected.
Title: Re: OSWP Exam Post by: cd1zz on August 29, 2012, 09:39:44 PM Yep, probably their worst course. Needs to be updated to include enterprise auth with wifi.
Title: Re: OSWP Exam Post by: ajohnson on August 29, 2012, 10:00:50 PM There's plenty of room to expand beyond 802.11 as well. They could do something similar to SANS 617/GAWN and also include ZigBee, Bluetooth, RFID, etc.
At the same time, it's pretty cheap, and the quality/quantity of material is fair for what you pay. Title: Re: OSWP Exam Post by: Jamie.R on August 30, 2012, 03:48:45 AM Tha main reason I done the course was the price.
Title: Re: OSWP Exam Post by: m0wgli on August 30, 2012, 05:33:52 AM The course has been updated since I did it, so I can't comment on the new material. I'd agree with all the the other comments made so far.
At the time I read the following book to expand on the material whilst doing the course and found it useful: http://www.amazon.com/Hacking-Exposed-Wireless-Second-Edition/dp/0071666613/ref=dp_ob_title_bk Another book I've heard good things about but haven't read yet is: http://www.amazon.com/BackTrack-Wireless-Penetration-Testing-Beginners/dp/1849515581/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1346322592&sr=1-1&keywords=wireless+backtrack Title: Re: OSWP Exam Post by: Jamie.R on August 30, 2012, 06:57:57 AM The backtrack book is meant to be pretty good and as its written by Vivek I would expect it to be. Of course he also have wireless course on securitytube that may cover more or less might be worth looking into tho.
Title: Re: OSWP Exam Post by: esojzuir on August 31, 2012, 08:20:14 PM I was studying Vivek's course and decided to try for the OSWP new version. I watched the videos and practiced for two weeks, then took the test and it took me 3 hours to hack everything, get all the screenshots, make the report in a very clean fashion with intro, scope, attacks with screenshots... the whole nine yards and send it off... 24 hours later I got the good news... I was OSWP
With Vivek's material you do a lot more than with the OSWP, I decided to go for the cert because of the OffSec reputation, but Vivek's video course it's a lot more complete
