Hackers-Arise

Thank you very much, OTW! Can't wait for the Advance class to be out.

Even though, I had some familiarity with Python, but I feel this course gave me a solid ground to continue to the next level. Thanks OTW.

This course is very applicable to cybersecurity. It starts with the basics and then moves into actual use scenarios to demonstrate concepts rather than this is a variable, this is a function...etc. Useful programs are demonstrated step by step slowly and well-explained as a way to teach the programming concepts. This makes learning fun and relevant.

easy to understand for a noob

This was an easy course to follow. It provides a nice introduction to the potential power of python as well giving you a better understanding of some of the common penetration testing exploits. In one of the interviews I listened to on David Bombell, a couple of Hackers mentioned that on one of their assignments, their client would not allow them to use all their equipment typically use in a PenTest. The PenTest had to be conducted from scratch without all the tried and true software exploits. The Python Basic for Hackers course was a perfect first step into developing those types of skills, by learning to develop Python scripts instead of relying on well known tools. Personally I found it taught me more about how packages like NMAP and Metasploit internally function. Keep in mind that there is a great deal of follow up reading and coding practice required to master these skills.
