Course Description

Welcome to the comprehensive course "Hacking Using Kali Linux from A to Z." This program is designed for learners who are interested in ethical hacking and network security and wish to familiarize themselves with the world of cybersecurity using Kali Linux.


This course starts from scratch, introducing you to the concept of hacking and how Kali Linux, a powerful tool for hackers (ethical ones), plays a crucial role. After a brief introduction, we start by guiding you on setting up your own virtual lab and workspace, which will act as your personal sandbox for practicing the concepts you'll learn.


After setting up the workspace, we introduce you to the Kali Linux interface, exploring its functions, services, and integral tools. Here, we cover Penetration Testing Phases, ways to update and upgrade Kali Linux, and basic command-line functions. Further, we dig into managing Kali Linux Services such as HTTP and SSH.


Next, we will dive into various essential tools used in hacking, like Netcat and Wireshark, and their functionalities. You will learn how to transfer files, perform remote administration, analyze network traffic, and explore multiple real-life examples.


The course will then guide you through the methods of Passive and Active Information Gathering. You'll learn to use tools like NMAP, Zenmap, and Enum4Linux for network scanning and enumeration, and Google hacking for information gathering.


In the password attacks section, you will understand the intricacies of password cracking using tools like XHydra and Ncrack, along with creating effective wordlists using Crunch.


The subsequent parts of the course will focus on Web Application Attacks and Network Attacks. You'll get to learn about SQL Injection, DNS Spoofing, enabling routing, and using tools like SQLMAP and Ettercap.


In the Social Engineering section, we introduce you to the human aspect of cybersecurity, where you will learn how to craft spoofed emails, use the Social Engineering Toolkit (SET), and manage Meterpreter sessions.


Towards the end, we delve deeper into working with exploits using tools like Metasploit and Armitage. Here, we explain how to penetrate networks, manage sessions, and fix common issues in these tools.


Finally, we discuss remote attacks and port forwarding, where you'll gain practical knowledge about hacking remote systems.


This course is designed to give you a hands-on approach to ethical hacking. By the end of this course, you will have a solid understanding of Kali Linux, its tools, and methods used by ethical hackers to protect networks from threats. Embrace the world of ethical hacking with this course and step up your cybersecurity game.

Instructor Details

Cyber Pass Academy

I'm the curator behind Cyber Pass Academy, focused on one outcome: helping you pass your cybersecurity certification exam on the first attempt. Rather than building a single course and hoping it works for everyone, I bring together training from experienced cybersecurity instructors and pair it with additional study resources, practice materials, and ongoing support to round out the learning experience.

My approach is simple — exam-day success shouldn't depend on guesswork. Every course under Cyber Pass Academy is selected with that goal in mind: clear explanations, exam-aligned content, and the practical confidence you need to walk in and pass. Whether you're working toward Security+, CISSP, CCNA, or another certification, the focus stays the same — preparing you thoroughly, the first time.

Cyber Pass Academy has helped thousands of students worldwide work toward their certification goals. I'd love to help you get there too.

just getting started

By Parnell APPO on 8/4/2024

Great lecture, but some points to clarify. I don't know if the lecturer is still on the platform or Cyber Pass can help. Questions about the courses are not answered even after 6 months, the tools can't be downloaded while other classes in UDEMY used to be easier for downloads the resources. Now you need access to a Google drive. Please correct this issue and help participants. By the way, I learnt many new stuffs.
