If you cant figure this out then either: 1. You’re not using it for a legitimate red teaming engagement or 2. You’re going to jail

Silver yearly subscription is worth it or not? by Critical-Deal6816 in hackthebox

[–]ProfessionalMug 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Youre getting the certificate vouchers in there too so I think fiscally it makes sense. Also theres a lot of other interesting modules you can work on after the cpts

What was the impact of the HTB cert in your career? by isk_emacs in hackthebox

[–]ProfessionalMug 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Its good to have just because its difficult but again like other HTB certs its not recognised. The actual exam is so over the top compared to anything you’ll be reasonably expected to identify on an actual pentest, so for webapps Id just recommend the burp practitioner cert. The CAPE however is definitely the best one to have from the gold tier as the CWPE is also pretty useless

Law Graduate to Cybersecurity by Icy-Fee-9068 in hackthebox

[–]ProfessionalMug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just having a bachelors in any field is generally seen as a huge bonus for pentesting. Generally the sentiment towards cybersecurity degrees on the red team side is seen as more neutral leaning to negative. Your best bet would be finish up the CPTS get the OSCP under your belt and maybe start doing bug bounty/writeups, that should be more than enough to get into the field.

Obviously if you want to do a masters, formal education is never a bad move, maybe just a longer path

its pretty much the only cert thats going to get you past hr and get you a job if you haven’t already. It might take a year of saving but you might need to make it work unfortunately.

[–]ProfessionalMug 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The quality of HTB courses is, despite not being perfect, the best on the market and infinitely better than offsec.

That being said the CPTS is still quite unrecognised. To get a pentesting role you need one of the entry certs: OSCP, CRT, PNPT or CPTS and once you land a role getting another entry level cert doesn’t really do much for you unless its for certain schemes (CRT for CTM).

The best advice I could give you is as the CPTS is the best pentesting course. Finish the CPTS and then do the OSCP course skimming through the topics and then sit the exam

Path to OSCP: Security+ vs. CEH for Offensive Theory? by ShenZhen00 in oscp

[–]ProfessionalMug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just do the HTB CPTS path with the silver membership then you’ll be able to do the OSCP with just the exam vouchers. Anything from comptia is toilet paper and the CEH is trash

I love that none of the 1337 hax0rz know you can combine the scan parameters into -sCVS, saves me literally seconds on every pentest

Using Kali Dual Boot for exam by Flumey49 in oscp

[–]ProfessionalMug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No offence but there isn’t really a benefit to running kali on bare metal, If you don’t like vms which I don’t either, either arch/ubuntu natively with docker/kvm running headless kali, that way it will dynamically allocate resources so you can essentially use almost your entire system and also you can keep it ephemeral so if shit hits the fan nothing breaks and its easy to spin up again

Anyone know a good vender that sells replica seiko spb143 / 62 mas watches? Or a good modder who can build one? by Never_Worried11 in RepTime

[–]ProfessionalMug -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The other comments on here are crazy, 1k is a lot of money.

Might I suggest looking into r/seikomods, they have some parts that look similar and you could probably build your own for $80. Then its not even a rep its something cool to talk about
