What is an Offensive Security Certified Professional?
The Offensive Security Certified Professional (OSCP) is the
companion certification for our and is the world’s first completely hands-on
offensive information security certification. The OSCP challenges the students
to prove they have a clear and practical understanding of the penetration
testing process and life-cycle through an arduous twenty-four (24) hour
certification exam.
An OSCP has demonstrated their ability to be presented with
an unknown network, enumerate the targets within their scope, exploit them, and
clearly document their results in a penetration test report.
Real World Exams
The OSCP examination consists of a virtual network
containing targets of varying configurations and operating systems. At the the
start of the exam, the student receives the exam and connectivity instructions
for an isolated exam network that they have no prior knowledge or exposure to.
The successful examinee will demonstrate their ability to
research the network (information gathering), identify any vulnerabilities and
successfully execute attacks. This often includes modifying exploit code with
the goal to compromise the systems and gain administrative access.
The candidate is expected to submit a comprehensive
penetration test report, containing in-depth notes and screenshots detailing
their findings. Points are awarded for each compromised host, based on their
difficulty and level of access obtained.
Real World Benefits
An OSCP, by definition, is able to identify existing
vulnerabilities and execute organized attacks in a controlled and focused
manner, write simple Bash or Python scripts, modify existing exploit code to
their advantage, perform network pivoting and data ex-filtration, and
compromise poorly written PHP web applications.
