Updated in May 2025. This course now features Coursera Coach! A smarter way to learn with interactive, real-time conversations that help you test your knowledge, challenge assumptions, and deepen your understanding as you progress through the course. Advance your hacking skills with this comprehensive course focusing on sophisticated exploitation and scripting techniques. Begin with mastering Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) attacks, where you’ll explore the ARP protocol, install and troubleshoot MITMf, and perform advanced attacks like HTTP traffic sniffing and DNS spoofing. You'll also learn how to hook browsers with BEEF, clone web pages, and capture screenshots, providing a robust foundation in MITM attack methodologies. Next, the course transitions to Python basics, which is crucial for any hacker looking to automate tasks and develop custom scripts. Through detailed video lessons, you’ll gain proficiency in Python programming, covering essential topics such as variables, loops, functions, and classes. This foundational knowledge sets the stage for more advanced projects, ensuring you can effectively write and understand Python scripts tailored for hacking. The final sections focus on developing complex hacking tools. You’ll learn to create advanced backdoors capable of reverse shell connections, executing commands, and maintaining persistence. You'll also develop a keylogger to capture keystrokes and integrate it with your backdoor for enhanced functionality. The course culminates in creating a brute force attacker, teaching you to start threads, bypass antivirus software, and send malware with spoofed emails. Each module provides practical, hands-on experience, ensuring you can apply these advanced techniques in real-world scenarios. This course is designed for experienced ethical hackers and cybersecurity professionals looking to advance their exploitation and scripting skills. Prior knowledge of basic ethical hacking principles and familiarity with Python is recommended.
