Course Description
In this Network Hacking course, you'll dive deep into both the theory and hands-on techniques used by ethical hackers to secure and exploit network infrastructures. We’ll start with the fundamentals, covering essential networking concepts and protocols, before moving into advanced topics like attacking key network components—DNS, DHCP, routers, and more. You’ll learn how to execute powerful attacks such as Denial of Service (DoS), MAC spoofing, and exploiting applications over the network.
A unique feature of this course is its focus on coding your own hacking tools using Python, giving you the skills to automate attacks and craft custom solutions. We’ll also explore network security and protection strategies, including how to defend against ARP spoofing, write custom IDS/IPS rules, and secure routers to prevent unauthorized access. Whether you’re a beginner or looking to expand your expertise, this course offers a hands-on, in-depth approach to mastering network hacking and securing networks against common threats.

Hi! I am Aleksa. I am a Cybersecurity and Ethical Hacking professional with over 7 years of hands-on experience in penetration testing, security assessments, and real world attack simulation. My work focuses on identifying security weaknesses, reducing risk, and helping organizations strengthen their defensive posture against modern cyber threats.
I am a Co-Founder and Lead Penetration Tester at Bedem Security, where I work with organizations to assess infrastructure, applications, and networks, and to improve their overall security maturity. Through both consulting and research-driven testing, I have contributed to the identification of vulnerabilities across a range of environments, including web applications, networks, and enterprise systems.
As an instructor, my goal is to make cybersecurity practical, structured, and accessible, bridging the gap between theory and real world application. My courses emphasize hands-on skills, attacker mindset, and defensive strategies that reflect how security challenges actually appear in modern organizations.

I already knew a little bit about some of these topics but the explantions are great and have really helped drill in what i needed. Also there are some topics I had no idea about. Great course and great explanations. Awesome.

Three suggestions for course improvement. 1. To avoid having to type sudo in front of every command, log in as su root once at the beginning of the exercise 2. More HTTPS examples and less HTTP examples (obsolete protocol) 3, Avoid hardcoding variables in python scripts and enter variable via the option extension. (e.g. python3 exercise_script.py )

For my taste, there are far too many book classes and not enough exercises. Nevertheless, the exercices about DNS, exploiting buffer overflow vulnerability, ARP spoof detection and snort tool used as IDS/IPS are valuable.

By Krishnamurthi Menon on 11/8/2024
This is the same course that's been offered by the same author and tutor. It is good because the presentation is logical, step by step and easy to understand.
By Mark Edhemovic on 11/5/2024
I've been an Aleksa fan since 2019, I've learned so much. I can tell you this is easily one of his better, simpler, more in-depth courses. The quality of courses was good, but has risen substantially in the last year. This man is a legend in the community, I hope to attend one of his lessons in person eventually. Keep up the great work man! Love your stuff.
