Desktop View


eJPTv2 is an ideal certification for all those who want to start as a pentester, stressing that it is a Junior certification, therefore it is unlikely to obtain any type of job only with said certification.

You can get more information about eJPTv2 on their website(https://ine.com/learning/certifications/internal/elearnsecurity-junior-penetration-tester-v2).


Information about the evaluation system

Previously the evaluation criteria was based on passing 5 marks, including the final mark and 4 sections, on January 10, 2023 eLearnSecurity decided to change the evaluation criteria to the same one used in the previous version of eJPT(v1).

To pass the exam and obtain your certification you must equal or exceed the minimum final grade (70%)

The exam lasts a maximum of 48 hours.
eJPTv2 preparation course

The preparation course have a total of 143 hours and is divided into the following sections:

-Assessment Methodologies

-Host & Networking Auditing

-Host & Network Penetration Testing

-Web Application Penetration Testing
 
 My experience with eJPTv2

In my case, I took the exam with 9% of the course taken.
I started the exam on a Thursday at 6:00 p.m. and finished it on a Friday at 8:00 p.m., stressing that I rested, went to the gym..., therefore it means that in 48 hours you have plenty of time to take the exam .

The exam is easy for everyone who has a minimum of experience, it wasn't complicated at all for me, what's more, I was the one who got complicated trying to carry out more complex attacks.
Tips for the exam

Know how to use metasploit, in the exam you do not have access to the internet, therefore you will be forced to use it.

Understand and know how to use the following tools:

-nmap

-hydra

-wfuzz

If you get stuck in the exam I recommend you take a break, as I said before, you have plenty of time to take the exam.

Take notes of all services and information you obtain, it may be useful at some point in the exam.
