Curriculum path
Not a wall of boxes — a learning spine
VAPT Basics: Networking, Linux & Windows, Web App PT, Reporting, and LLM / agentic basics — plus how to use AI across every engagement to work smarter and faster. Advanced tracks unlock after.
Step 1 · VAPT Basics
- Networks for offensive security
Networking basics
TCP/IP, ports, protocols, DNS, routing, and packet flow — the network view every pentester needs before deeper work.
- Operating systems for hacking
Linux & Windows basics
Command line, users and permissions, services, processes, and OS footholds across Linux and Windows environments.
- Web App PT
Web application penetration testing
Auth flaws, injection, access control, session issues, and modern web attack surfaces — practiced in labs that feel like real apps.
- Professional pentest reporting
Reporting
Evidence capture, clear severity language, reproducible steps, and hire-ready write-ups that clients and teams actually use.
- AI-assisted offensive workflows
LLM / agentic basics pentesting
Learn LLM and agent basics for pentesting — prompts, safe use, and where AI helps vs where humans decide.
- Work smarter and faster end-to-end
Using AI across all pentesting
Apply AI through the full engagement: smarter recon, faster triage of findings, drafting exploit hypotheses, speeding evidence notes, and polishing reports — without handing judgment or ethics to the model.
Step 2 · Advanced
Specialize after the basics
AI in the engagement
Use AI across all pentesting — smarter & faster
Not a separate side topic. We teach how to apply AI through the whole workflow so you move quicker — while judgment, ethics, and final calls stay human.
01 · Recon
Smarter discovery
Use AI to summarize targets, cluster assets, and suggest next checks — you verify before you act.
02 · Triage
Faster prioritization
Sort noise from signal: draft risk notes, compare similar findings, and focus human time on what matters.
03 · Exploit path
Hypothesis acceleration
Generate test ideas and chaining thoughts quickly — then validate manually in lab or scope.
04 · Report
Clearer write-ups
Turn evidence into structured drafts faster: steps, impact language, and remediation — you own the final report.
Same idea applies whether you're on Web, Mobile, AWS, or AD: AI accelerates the boring and the brainstorming — you still own the engagement.

FAQ
Is placement guaranteed?+
No. Placement support is merit-based. Students who meet readiness standards get referrals — everyone gets honest feedback on where they stand.
When do companies pay?+
Zero upfront. A placement fee applies only when you hire a referred candidate, typically within 6 months of referral.
Who is this for?+
Both early-career learners and senior / experienced pentesters. Fresh talent starts with VAPT Basics; experienced operators use the same program to specialize in Web Advanced, Mobile, AWS Cloud, AD, or Red Team.
What will students learn in the program?+
VAPT Basics: Networking, Linux & Windows, Web application PT, Reporting, LLM/agentic basics, and how to use AI across the full pentest workflow to work smarter and faster. After that: Web Advanced, Mobile, AWS Cloud, AD, and Red Team.
What are the labs like?+
Custom-built and vulnerability-specific. Each lab is designed to look and behave like a modern realtime application (web apps, APIs, auth flows, dashboards) — so you practice findings the way they appear in real products, not on outdated demo sites.
Do you help with industry credentials?+
Yes. We guide learners through relevant credential prep with structured practice and review — so skills are credible on paper, not just in theory.
How long does the training take?+
Cohort length depends on starting skill level — early-career and senior paths move at different speeds. Exact timelines are shared at enrollment.
What does “placement-ready” mean?+
It means a student has cleared our internal readiness bar — practical skills, reporting quality, and interview readiness — before we refer them to hiring partners.
Can companies bypass the fee if they hire someone later?+
No. If you hire a referred candidate within the agreed referral window (typically 6 months), the placement fee applies per the partner acknowledgment and agreement.
Do companies interview candidates themselves?+
Yes. We refer pre-vetted talent; you run your own interviews and decide who to hire. We don’t force placements.
I’m in HR — how does this help us?+
You get a shorter, merit-gated list instead of a resume flood. Share the role, we refer placement-ready VAPT talent, your panel interviews, and you pay a fee only if you hire. Built for HR and talent teams who need infosec hires without endless screening.
I’m a fresher with no security background — can I still apply?+
Yes. Many applicants start as freshers. We assess your current skills honestly and place you in the right track. Placement still depends on meeting the readiness standard.
Is this only for India, or remote-friendly?+
We work with students and hiring partners across locations. Roles may be onsite, hybrid, or remote depending on what each company posts.
How do I get started?+
Students apply via the enrollment form. HR / companies submit a hiring-partner form with an open role. Our team follows up on the email you provide.
Ready to start?
Students enroll for the cohort. HR and companies share a hiring need. Same platform — two doors in.
