Excellent review, makes me want to go for it. But before I do, I think I will work my way through some labs like De-Ice, Hackademic and Hackadermia etc... Maybe finish watching the mile2 video just to get a much stronger understanding. Also waiting to get out of this contract position and get into a FT position so I have PTO again.

Thx for review, congratulation for OSCP

I have a doubt about which course to do and think you're the right person to help me. I took the CEH to a 6 months, found a theoretical way as well, and with very little practice, I'm studying a lot and I'm feeling pentest some difficulties in the practice of business.

Which course would advise you guys to do, ECSA / LTP or take the course of the OSCP?

Thx ...

It's difficult to give an accurate advice without knowing your background. ECSA is as theoretical as CEH and personally I didn't learn anything new from ECSA/LPT. OSCP is very hands-on and a great intro to pentesting.

If you are new to all this and have little to no experience, you might want to start with eLearnSecurity. I haven't taken their course myself, but some here at EHN have and might be able to answer specific questions about it, if you have any. You can find Jason's review here.
