Kali Linux Full Course | Ethical Hacking & Penetration Testing (6.5h)

Learn Kali Linux, ethical hacking, and penetration testing in this complete 6.5+ hour full course. This comprehensive masterclass takes you from absolute beginner foundations to advanced offensive security workflows: mastering Linux terminal commands, OSINT intelligence gathering with Maltego, DNS reconnaissance, automated vulnerability scanning with OWASP ZAP and OpenVAS, SQL injection database attacks, active exploitation with Metasploit, and password auditing with Hydra and John the Ripper. Whether you are preparing for CompTIA Security+, CEH, or OSCP, or want to understand how real-world attackers find and exploit flaws, follow these hands-on lab chapters at your own pace. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN : • Kali Linux setup, system management, terminal commands, permissions, and package management • OSINT information gathering, digital footprinting, Maltego, DNS enumeration, and target recon • Web application, operating system, and database vulnerability assessment (OWASP ZAP, OpenVAS, Lynis) • Active exploitation workflows, debugging, buffer overflows, Metasploit, and privilege escalation • Password auditing tools (John the Ripper, Hydra, Ophcrack) and professional security reporting COURSE CHAPTERS & TIMESTAMPS : 00:00:00 Module 1 - Kali Linux Introduction & System Requirements 00:10:11 Module 2 - Installing, Booting & Customizing Kali Linux 00:31:14 Module 3 - Mastering Linux Terminal Commands & File Permissions 01:24:39 Module 4 - Kali Linux Package Management & Repositories 01:39:50 Module 5 - OSINT & Information Gathering with Maltego 02:02:43 Module 6 - DNS Reconnaissance & Domain Enumeration 02:24:35 Module 7 - Passive Network Scanning & Metadata Extraction 02:49:27 Module 8 - Web Application Vulnerability Scanning (OWASP ZAP) 03:41:43 Module 9 - OS Vulnerability Assessment (Lynis & OpenVAS) 04:09:07 Module 10 - Database Security Testing & SQL Injection (sqlmap) 04:21:37 Module 11 - Working with Exploits in Kali Linux (Commix & BeEF) 04:44:31 Module 12 - Program Exploitation, Debugging & Buffer Overflows 05:16:50 Module 13 - Metasploit Framework: Testing & Exploitation Workflow 05:38:07 Module 14 - Password Auditing (John the Ripper, Hydra & Ncrack) 06:15:51 Module 15 - Security Reporting, Evidence Capture & Documentation TOOLS COVERED : Kali Linux, Maltego, DNSRecon, dig, theHarvester, Recon-ng, OWASP ZAP, w3af, OpenVAS, Lynis, sqlmap, sqlninja, Commix, BeEF, Metasploit Framework, objdump, Social Engineer’s Toolkit (SET), John the Ripper, Hydra, Ophcrack, Faraday IDE. IMPORTANT COURSE NOTE : Some recorded demonstrations feature older Kali Linux interfaces and legacy security tools. Core penetration testing methodologies and Linux mechanics remain identical across modern systems. Always consult official documentation before deploying commands in your lab. ETHICAL HACKING DISCLAIMER : This content is provided solely for cybersecurity education and authorized security testing. Perform scans, vulnerability assessments, password audits, and exploitation exercises only on systems you own or have explicit, written permission to test. Use isolated lab environments and comply with all applicable local and international computer crime laws. Unauthorized access or attacks are strictly prohibited.
