  • I think this course will help me and many others who are struggling with learning Metasploit learn more about it and go even further in the computer science field.

    Ok so I just finished this Metasploit Training Course by Cybrary and it was actually pretty decent. The instructor knew his stuff and didn't make it too complicated even though Metasploit can be super technical. The hands-on labs were the best part cuz I got to actually try the exploits instead of just reading about them. Some of the examples were kinda outdated tho, like they could definitely use some fresher scenarios. Most of the material was easy to follow along with, and I could actually use what I learned in my security class project. If you're trying to get better at pen testing it's worth checking out, especially if you're into the whole ethical hacking thing. Probably gonna use what I learned for my final.

    I thought the videos were well paced and easy to understand. However, from watching all five videos, it appears most of those programs are very out-of-date. While some of the same fundamental elements will be and are the same, with the most up-to-date pieces of VMware and Kali, most of the commands are simplified and the GUIs appear to be more user-friendly.

    I felt very excited while learning this course. The Metasploit Training Course by Cybrary offers a comprehensive and self-paced introduction to the Metasploit Framework, a critical tool for penetration testing and vulnerability assessments. This course is designed for intermediate learners aiming to enhance their cybersecurity skills, particularly in exploiting and defending systems.
  • Samuel Canfield
    This Course was very informative on how to set up Metasploit with some information about how to use the program when it is eventually set up, with one example being how to turn the virtual machine to host only when privacy for a machine is needed. One thing that I enjoyed about this course was the attention to detail during the setup phase, this would be a fantastic course for those who have never used Metasploit before as it gives extremely valuable information about how to set up the environment. The only thing that I would have liked to see in this course is a more thorough guide on how to use Metasploit in different ways.

    Over half the course was just getting Kali Linux and Metasploit to run.

    I appreciate that it is free, but if you actually want to learn Metasploit specifically, you should get "Metasploit" (Book)

    This is a good course if you want to know how to get a Virtual Machine running, but overall I think this course if VERY overrated.
  • Hoostme
    you taught only how to install the kali in vm and setup but the tittle was metasploit training course which was not beneficial
  • Hunter Mulacek
    The Metasploit Training Course served as a great introductory set of videos for individuals unfamiliar with what the Metasploit Framework is, and how Kali Linux can be installed to leverage said framework. Additionally, I think there was a good high-level explanation of the different pieces of Metasploit and enough information to keep the viewer intrigued.

    Overall, I think this is a great starting point for individuals looking to gain experience with using pentesting tools.
  • Ethan Krol
    I've known a little bit about Kali in the past but in a way this was helpful. In summary, these videos seem to be meant as an intro into kali but I don't see how Metasploit was involved in this, maybe it is discussed in another video.

    This introductory course over Metasploit is a great course that allows beginners and intermediate users to learn how to download a virtual box as well as using Metasploit across a network to scan for any open vulnerabilities across a network or target's network

    Very thorough and in-depth look at how to install Kali Linux and Metasploit. It covers the basics of Metasploit and the file path to Metasploit and what each folder contains.
  • Griffin Voyk
    Useful information regarding the setup and usage of Metasploit and the Kali Linux operating system. Video host provides clear and concise information.
  • Mike Peronek
    The content itself is very helpful, it explains everything in detail and is extremely useful for the average user to get started. However there is an issue with how it is presented. For an IT related situation, the quality of the videos was quite lackluster. Audio and video were subpar unfortunately, making it a difficult watch. I’m giving the content 4 stars but the actual quality makes it feel more like a 2 or a low 3.

    I thought that the videos were a good way to get introduced to metasploit, they were segmented well and none of them were too long. Although I already had a general understanding of metasploit I also was able to learn a decent amount for how short the videos were.
