Do something less painful like a home root canal
What an absolutely horrible course. Where to begin? If taught directly out of the book, this course is little more than some flash and show. There is ZERO, NO, NADA, ZIP hands on labs within the course. The entire course consists of tool after tool with no description of why or how they work. There is no logical order to the course after the first three chapters. You get to see a dozen buffer overflow exploits but you don’t get to the buffer overflow module that explains them until the last day. The entire course was copied off of the web without any credit to the originating site. As I became bored, I began putting in sentence out of various paragraphs into a search engine to find out which site the information was taken from. After 43 examples of word-for-word copying I became bored with this also. Even grammar and spelling errors were copied. In one humorous example, the text kept referring to “the image above” but someone forgot to copy the images also. The course book is a copyright infringement suit waiting to happen. The instructor was a professional teaching with no hacking experience whatsoever. He had almost no Linux skills and could not even change the resolution in X. He mumbled through areas like web hacking and buffer overflows but then spent 2 hours on sniffing. The only security experience on his resume was teaching Security + and performing some firewall roll out. I could go on and on but I think you get the idea. This is the worst “hacking” course I have ever attended. The only thing that kept me even mildly attentive was the same sick perversion that makes you want to slow down and look at a car wreck. The only good news is that it probably won't be around much longer after authors start finding out there material was stolen.
