CompTIA PenTest+: Wireless & Social Engineering Attacks

Skillsoft issued completion badges are earned based on viewing the percentage required or receiving a passing score when assessment is required. A wireless attack is a security breach or exploitation that targets vulnerabilities in wireless networks and their connected devices. Social engineering attacks involve manipulating humans into divulging confidential information or performing actions against their own best interests. In this course, explore common wireless attack types, WPS PIN attacks, exploiting WPAD configurations, and performing a captive portal attack. Next, discover how to crack Wi-Fi passwords, identify network locations, detect rogue access points, and find and monitor Wi-Fi devices. Finally, learn about social engineering attacks and performing phishing, penetration testing, credential harvesting, target reconnaissance, platform user identification, and hacking of web browsers. This course is one of a collection that helps prepare learners for the CompTIA PenTest+ (PT0-003) certification exam.
