If you spend any time at all on Reddit or forums for information security students, you’ll find dozens of questions about preparing for the Penetration Testing with Kali Linux (PWK, aka OSCP) class from Offensive Security. Likewise, I’ve been asked by a number of people I know personally about moving into the security realm. I figured I’d put together some notes on how to prepare and the knowledge that I believe is necessary to succeed with the PWK class. Additionally, all of the skills listed here are skills I would expect even the most junior of penetration testers to possess.
