OSCP References and my notes as of 2/18/2020 (in no specific order)

OSCP Description: (practical) Solid entry level PRACTICAL certification (note it is an entry level practical not theoretical) A lot of self learning/discovery through practical application. Gold standard for entry pentesting from my understanding.

"The only way to take the OSCP certification exam is to first complete the Penetration Testing with Kali Linux training course"
