Course Overview
This course blends ethical hacking theory with intensive hands-on practice in MIET’s Red-Team lab. Learners progress from information gathering and vulnerability assessment to advanced exploitation, malware analysis, and social engineering. Using professional tools such as Kali Linux, Metasploit, and Wireshark, participants simulate real-world attack scenarios including web application testing, SQL injection, and wireless security assessments. The program emphasizes adversary tactics, evasion techniques, and structured penetration testing reports, ensuring learners are equipped to operate like professional red-teamers. Graduates are prepared for roles such as Ethical Hacker, Penetration Tester, Cybersecurity Analyst, and Red-Team Specialist.
