Linux is the operating system of the security world. Command it with confidence — from the terminal to privilege escalation, scripting to system hardening.
Kali Linux, Parrot OS, Ubuntu Server — the most powerful security tools run on Linux. If you can't navigate the terminal confidently, you'll be limited in every security role you pursue.
This course takes you from Linux basics to advanced techniques used in real penetration tests — privilege escalation, persistence, log manipulation, and scripting automation.
File system hierarchy, navigation, file operations, text editors (vim/nano), and understanding the Linux boot process.
User management, file permissions (chmod/chown), SUID/SGID bits, sticky bits, and ACLs — the foundation of Linux privilege escalation.
Processes, daemons, systemd, cron jobs, and how attackers abuse scheduled tasks for persistence.
Variables, loops, conditionals, functions, and building practical security automation scripts.
ifconfig/ip, netstat/ss, iptables, SSH configuration, and network troubleshooting from the command line.
SUID exploitation, sudo misconfigurations, writable cron jobs, PATH hijacking, kernel exploits, and enumeration scripts (LinPEAS).
Reading system logs, detecting intrusions, covering tracks (attacker perspective), and log monitoring (defender perspective).
Compromise a vulnerable Linux machine from initial access through privilege escalation to full root — document every step.
Pre-configured Kali Linux VM with all tools installed. No setup headaches — just start hacking.
Multiple intentionally vulnerable Linux machines at different difficulty levels for privilege escalation practice.
Practical bash scripting challenges that build real automation skills used in penetration testing.
