I've taken a few hacking courses on here, but this one stands out because it actually makes you do the work. The hands-on labs were challenging but explained well. It doesn't just show you the tools; it explains the logic behind the attacks. Highly recommended if you want practical skills.

By Jack on 7/17/2026

This ethical hacking course is easy to understand, comprehensive, and well-structured. The instructor explains the concepts clearly, making even complex topics easy to follow. I'm really enjoying the course and highly recommend it.

By Joseph Montalvo on 12/5/2021

The platforms are way out of date and I have left messages with coaches and main instructor that have gotten no response on how to fix problems. This whole course is in dire need of retirement or upgrading. I have found courses online that are updated quarterly and go into more depth than this one. I have learned a lot from this course, but feel I am missing out on a lot also.

By Renato Antunes on 1/5/2021

You can definetly learn a lot from this course. I enjoyed very much going through each one of the lectures. I am not giving the max score because sometimes it felt like something was missing (resources that we need to go find ourselves) and because some of the lectures felt rushed (specially the ones related to GNS3). Moreover, for a "complete course", I would expect topics related to wi-fi hacking and this is not even mentioned.

By Martin Ivan Marmolejo Anguiano on 9/1/2020

I really enjoy the course, the teacher explain how is the communication of the protocols and some courses do not explain this part. I consider that the section of "Web Application Penetration Testing" was very basic. I learnt some new concepts.

By José Luis Brea Rodríguez on 5/13/2020

The instructor explains slowly and this is good for me to understand more. I find myself the course great. I feel so happy receiving this magnificent course. This course is a must. I am really another person in knowledge after this course. I love it.

By Christian Wansleeben on 1/6/2020

Excellent course! Covers most of the Ethical Hacking topics in a truly pleasant way. Lots of practical examples, lots of tools. Slides are superbly worked out. Above that, Muharrem has a very calm and pleasant voice plus a good dosis of humor; not to forget also a deep understanding od the subject. He takes plenty of time to explain the content. I fully enjoyed the 19 hours, worthwhile the time investment and a good gateway to further learning Kali and Penetration Testing. Congratulations Muharrem .. it was a fun!!!

By Ishti chow on 10/26/2019

I changed my review as it seems the instructor is very well organized and well spoken.... 1 star to 5 star as I am ignoring some blur screens.... Some places instructor didnot elaborate in depth though its a vast topics to cover but overwall its very good

By Tom on 8/27/2019
