Just got approval from my company to take PWB + OSCP.  Grin

Trying to decide whether or not to sign up for one starting in early April. I have a vacation scheduled for late May / early June and I don't know whether it would be wasting valuable lab time (got approved for 90 days) or a well needed break. Any thoughts?

It depends, if you want to use the vacation to study  Roll Eyes , then start it, otherwise... wait until you'll be able to devote yourself to the course.

Nice one jsm725, I got my approval yesterday and could be starting Sunday Smiley

I think I'm doing the 60 day lab and my work are giving me roughly 2 days off before my exam for study leave etc.  So I will get all the time outside of work that I like, and a few hours a week in work to complete the course and mess around with the OffSec lab.

Maybe your work has some study leave as well, if not I'm sure something can be sorted out Smiley

Best of luck

You can use whatever OS you want as your attacking platform - though most people stick with whichever version of BackTrack the course is currently based on.

No one is going to tell you what OS the targets are for the exam. The lab environment has a large mix of all of the above.

Thanks @BillV

Is there anyway we can get Video tutorial first and start study and later get lab for hand-on experience?

I meant one of OSCP can share video Wink

When you sign up for a start date and your approved to take it, on the course begin date you receive an e-mail giving with links to the Lab guide and Course Video contents. Your also given credentials and instructions with how to connect to the student network. The days you pay for the course control how long you have access to the offsec lab environment to practice in.

No one is going to share their OSCP videos as the persons full name and home address is watermarked into every video.

Wow congrats j0rDy! It's good to see that you passed the exam! How many tries did it take you? I know we both failed it at least once lol. Hopefully I'll feel ready for my second try soon.

Congrats again!

Bwahahahahaha!  <sorry>  Just got a kick out of that one, being that this IS ethicalhacker.net - keyword 'ethical'     Wink

Nope.  As BillV noted, you won't find OSCP's sharing ths vids.  Non-disclosure is a serious thing, and the vids ARE carefully marked.

I once saw someone else's OLD vids (like PWB 1.0, I think) that they'd found posted somewhere.  I can tell you, by the time the person who posted them had 'blurred' out the watermark, the videos were pretty useless.  The person who showed them to me had already given up trying to learn from those, and paid for the class, instead (as well he should have, to begin with.)  And those old videos have changed a lot, since, so I don't think you'd find them as useful as you'd like.  Case in point, I think if you're looking for handouts like the OSCP vids, I wouldn't waste my time, if I were you.  You'd be better off finding some other study materials and spending time with those (other books, paying for the course, etc)

It's just not worth the trouble, and besides, the value of paying for them is the ability to ask questions of the instructors, etc, anyway.

besides the bad picture because of the blurring the audio is beyond bad. just invest in the complete course. therefore i dont think it is possible to only take the exam. Its still the "best bang for your buck" deal around so it should be a no-brainer...

That's a really good question.  Honestly, I'd start looking at the various books geared towards pentesting and security.  There are MANY good threads about books, here, on the forums.

Such books include (but aren't limited to):

Professional Penetration Testing by Thomas Wilhelm
Build Your Own Security Lab by Michael Gregg

and others...
