The email just arrived:
"Dear Patrick,
We are happy to inform you that you have successfully completed the Penetration Testing with Kali Linux certification challenge and have obtained your Offensive Security Certified Professional (OSCP) certification...."
So far, the OSCP has been the only certification (besides CISSP, CISM, CPSSE, DSB-TÜV) with an unmistakable fun factor. But considerably more exhausting, tougher and far more time-consuming than the others. I can only recommend the OSCP from Offensive Security!
