Hacking 101 - HackingPoint

[Danny]

    Check Point's HackingPoint program is a global education program for security experts to help master all types of Pen Testing techniques and Cyber Security practices.

Hacking 101 (Datasheet) is a virtual 1-day course held via Zoom meeting.

Upon completing this course students can get certified for:

Pen-Testing Associate (CCPA), Expert (CCPE) and Master (CCPM).

Exams are available on Pearson VUE.

What do you think about this program?

Would it be pentesting specifically just for Checkpoint?

I tried to book the October course for Europe via store.checkpoint.com and failed with 3 different credit cards (Mastercard and Visa). Error message is "Failed to create payment info".

Wrote two times to education@ts.checkpoint.com and asked for help. (I got this address from chat at supportcenter.checkpoint.com.) No answer. Seems that Check Point has no interest in someone taking the course.

The courses are always booked out very fast. Our trainer did another 101 Hacking course just yesterday in the US and the one I'm currently attending is the EU course. Looks like these courses will be made available more frequently.

I give it a try. Thank you for the information.

Inbal Perlson no longer works at checkpoint.  Can this information be updated.  I need dates to book this class.
