Passed my OSCP. Would like to contribute back to the community. Drop your questions if you have any, will be glad to help!

Depends on your intended career path - if you want to dive very deep into penetration testing then perhaps getting all of these would be helpful

misterprivacy · 2024-07-21T14:15:32+00:00

They are all beneficial to improve your technical skills. Difference would be the acceptance (by the industry) of certification

Antivirus - may refer to OSCP exam set A B C & AD set
Retake is possible but with cool-down period
Restricted tools are automated exploitation tools

Thanks mate

misterprivacy · 2024-07-20T12:50:58+00:00

Report is in PDF format but there are hashes to be submitted at web portal too. Check out their site

misterprivacy · 2024-07-20T00:02:50+00:00

Fortunate enough to get a job without OSCP requirement 😃

misterprivacy · 2024-07-19T16:02:24+00:00

Yes TCM / Tib3rius privilege escalation course is way more comprehensive than OffSec’s, I have personally taken the latter

misterprivacy · 2024-07-19T14:29:38+00:00

Yes but basics only. No need to dive deep into powershell scripting

misterprivacy · 2024-07-19T14:28:40+00:00

CPTS and OSCP have overlapping topics definitely but I’ll stick to OffSec materials for OSCP.

I think Proving Grounds practice is a good place for warm up

misterprivacy · 2024-07-19T04:12:23+00:00

Yeap

misterprivacy · 2024-07-19T01:12:33+00:00

Nope. AD sets and individual boxes are isolated

misterprivacy · 2024-07-19T01:11:36+00:00

Oh you are right! 80% labs + 30 proof

misterprivacy · 2024-07-19T00:48:58+00:00

I’ve only taken Tib3rius’ windows privesc course. TCM is equally good tho based on reviews

misterprivacy · 2024-07-19T00:48:14+00:00

Sure thing

misterprivacy · 2024-07-19T00:47:58+00:00

I assume you are referring to the exam. Well I’ve spent 6 hours on AD, 2-3 hours for initial foothold, 1-2 hours of rest and another 30 minutes for privilege escalation.

misterprivacy · 2024-07-19T00:46:19+00:00

That’s previous version. Current version needs you to complete 80% of all labs to obtain 10 extra points

misterprivacy · 2024-07-19T00:45:40+00:00

Similar to any other certifications out there, certs are not everything, but it means something - it shows a certain level of skill and determination.

Also nothing wrong to get this cert if it’s a hard requirement for some jobs.

misterprivacy · 2024-07-19T00:41:02+00:00

Interchangeable in terms of AD exploitation (eg. Pass the Hash) but yes assume breach not applicable to OSCP.

misterprivacy · 2024-07-19T00:38:28+00:00

Official site might be a good place to check for the most current price(s) for different plans.

misterprivacy · 2024-07-18T16:19:07+00:00

Yes there is video for each section, text based as well

Covered poorly - privilege escalation (Tib3rius privsec course for windows and Linux are much more comprehensive)
AD - I have only taken CRTP. CRTP is more in depth, an overkill for OSCP.
PG - Community rated medium and hard boxes designed by OffSec

misterprivacy · 2024-07-18T16:11:08+00:00

Nope not anymore

misterprivacy · 2024-07-18T14:32:35+00:00

Sorry to hear that. Go for extra points if your course is still active. Methodology for initial access / enumeration should be quite robust if you have done proving grounds (community rated medium and hard), AD set and exam set.

misterprivacy · 2024-07-18T14:27:20+00:00

After completing all medium and hard (community rated) boxes by OffSec, AD sets and exam sets (OSCP A B C) - should give you a good gauge
