There are many roles in the Cybersecurity job market. One of these is Ethical Hacking, also known as 'Red Teaming', or as 'Pentesting' ('Penetration Testing').
I've enlisted myself for two Pentesting courses:
- Cyberium (started in December 2024),
- Hack The Box (started in August 2025).
Making reference notes as I progress.
These notes won't replace the full courses, but may prove to be useful for myself and others still - if only as a reference.
