"The Easiest Platform for Hands-On Penetration Testing Learning"

5/5

What do you like best about HTB CTF & Threat Range?

Great place to learn penetration testing techniques. There is content available to tech you the tools of the trade with very easy to follow guides. Then there are the boxes themselves which are the perfect hands on way to learn exactly how to use these techniques in the real world. The live CTF events I haven't tried yet as I'm still building my skillset but I'm very excited to try in the future! Getting started with boxes is very easy with the VPN option so I can integrate directly with my own Kali machine, but having the ParrotOS pwn box is perfect when I don't have this available.

What do you dislike about HTB CTF & Threat Range?

The ParrotOS pwn box is great but I found it to be a little buggy sometimes. When I scroll too fast I sometimes find the page goes blank and takes a while to come back so I need to refresh the page. Also using alt+tab doesn't work to change between terminals but that is due to it being in a browser window, so nothing to be done about that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HTB CTF & Threat Range solving and how is that benefiting you?

It is helping me to develop the skills I need to deliver my job, but before that it helped me to learn the fundamental skills so that I was able to land the current penetration testing job I am currently in. Now, I am able to stay ahead of the curve of the latest penetration testing techniques and security issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
