CRTP Reflections

At the beginning of this year (2021), I was given the opportunity to enroll in the Attacking and Defending Active Directory: Beginner’s Edition bootcamp offered by Pentester Academy. Included in this bootcamp is four live sessions with the instructor, a complete lab environment to practice in, a set of flags to obtain while in the lab and one attempt at the Certified Red Team Professional (CRTP) certification exam.

My hope is to provide those who are interested in the bootcamp, the lab environment, or in the CRTP certification some insight into what skills are provided and the overall structure of the offerings. There are a large number of options out there and choosing the right one for you is important.
