Certified Penetration Testing Professional Training

The EC-Council Certified Penetration Testing Professional (CPENT) program is one of the most advanced penetration testing training courses in the world.

Designed for experienced ethical hackers and cybersecurity professionals, CPENT teaches how to conduct real-world penetration tests across complex enterprise networks — from on-premises systems to IoT, OT, SCADA, and cloud environments.

The course goes beyond traditional network testing. You’ll learn to:

• Build your own exploits and tools

• Perform double pivoting to hidden networks

• Customize scripts and payloads

• Conduct binary exploitation and advanced reporting

This hands-on training includes access to the CPENT Live Range, EC-Council’s advanced cyber range, simulating real enterprise attack surfaces.

The CPENT certification validates your ability to think like a hacker, act like a professional, and report like a leader.
It’s your next step after CEH and ECSA on the path to becoming an EC-Council Licensed Penetration Tester (LPT Master).
