This Lab we are going to create is not only for Hacking and Penetration Testing. It&#8217;s the lab which is necessary for all computer science students and technology geeks.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">A Lab within a computer reduce electricity usage and has many more benefits. Even you can create it within your personal Laptop. If it would be on a laptop, it is portable and you can carry everywhere with yourself. The time is gone when the hardware of a computer was weak and just could run an operating system with a few software. But nowadays each computer at least has a CPU i3 or higher with 4 GB RAM or higher. So you can run multiple virtual operating systems (OS) separately at the same time.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">Virtualization Tools To Set Up A Penetration Testing Lab</h3>
<p style="text-align: left;">There are many Virtualization software for this purpose and all of them are easy to install and using a virtualization environment. <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/server-cloud/solutions/virtualization.aspx" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Hyper-v</a>,  a free and built-in hypervisor software on Windows 8 higher. It&#8217;s the best and I like it too much, but for enterprise network and working with Microsoft software products. Like SQL Server, Windows Server, System Center,  and others.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">When we are using for multi-vendor products, Linux, Windows, Mac OS, Chrome OS, Router IOS, and Web Server and web Apps, we must install and test them on Lab that can support all of them. So from basic hacking a standalone PC to Wireless hacking and even web app penetration testing to enterprise network penetration testing I suggest to create your lab with <a href="https://www.technig.com/vmware" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">VMWare</a>.</p>
<figure id="attachment_16116" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-16116" style="width: 1912px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img decoding="async" class="wp-image-16116 size-full" src="https://www.technig.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/VMware-Workstation.png" alt="Penetration Testing Lab with VMware Workstation" width="1912" height="612" srcset="https://www.technig.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/VMware-Workstation.png 1912w, https://www.technig.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/VMware-Workstation-300x96.png 300w, https://www.technig.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/VMware-Workstation-1024x328.png 1024w, https://www.technig.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/VMware-Workstation-768x246.png 768w, https://www.technig.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/VMware-Workstation-1536x492.png 1536w" sizes="(max-width: 1912px) 100vw, 1912px" /><figcaption id="caption-attachment-16116" class="wp-caption-text">Penetration Testing Lab with VMware Workstation</figcaption></figure>
<p style="text-align: left;"><a href="https://www.technig.com/vmware" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">VMWare workstation</a> is the appropriate tool for setting up your penetration testing lab and networking training lab. Unfortunately, it is not free like Hyper-V. But you can use VMWare player for free which is not more flexible and doesn&#8217;t have the same functions as a workstation.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">So good, you completely understand which Virtualization software is preferable and flexible for Learning Penetration Testing and Hacking. Now try to create your lab. First of all download all software you need for testing. Windows Server, Windows Client, Linux Operating system, and Web Application penetrating testing.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">Install VMware as Virtual Host Server</h3>
<p style="text-align: left;">Now go to VMware website and download the VMware workstation. Download the Windows edition if you are using Windows. It has for Linux and Mac OS also.  When the download complete successfully, simply install it like simple software installation and create a new virtual machine according to this step by step article &#8221; <a href="https://www.technig.com/create-a-virtual-machine-in-vmware/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">How to Create A Virtual Machine in VMWare?</a>&#8220;.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Note:</strong> Your system must meet the virtualization requirement. It must support virtualization technology (VT) and enabled before installing any virtualization software. You can enable it through your system BIOS where you can find other settings also.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">To install Kali Linux on VMWare read the article &#8220;<a href="https://www.technig.com/how-to-install-dual-boot-windows-and-kali-linux/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">How to Install Dual Boot Windows and Kali Linux?</a>&#8220;. In the next step, I will show you How to configure VMWare for Penetration Testing Lab.</p>

I&#8217;m looking for Free Exam Certification &amp; IT Courses for IT Geeks. This was a question asked by my friend Ali. Do you know any site or software? If Yes, please let me know, if not then read this post. The IT Provider companies such as Microsoft, Cisco, VMware, CompTIA, and Oracle are having Certifications for the IT experienced. If you are an IT experienced &amp; willing to get the Its Certificate, then you must have faced many difficulties. Getting their certification is really hard, &amp; you need to take the best Preparations for getting the Certificate. But what are your strategy for getting the certificate? There can be many strategies such as Taking online courses, self-examinations using PDF questions, reading the Books &amp; more. I bet these are the best strategies which will be helpful but Examinations with PDF every time won’t work. Because there are fewer questions, &amp; they will be finished soon or later. In the meantime finding other questions from the web takes time. Not only that but are pretty sure about the answers which you are giving.</p>
<p>Sites such as CBTNUGGETS does really well for IT students. With their Courses, Virtual Labs, Examinations sheets they have made it really easy for students to prepare them for the exam. But their courses are not free, &amp; if your economic situation isn&#8217;t good, it will be handy for you.</p>
<p>In this case what I want to use the <a href="https://www.prepaway.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Prepaway</a> or <a href="https://www.exam-labs.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">exam-labs.com</a>.</p>

<h2>Prepare IT Certifications with Free Courses and Exams</h2>
<p>Prepaway is a site, which uses the Exam Testing Engine (ETE). ETE is an Exam simulator which is developed for certification exam preparation. These tools are free &amp; use the .ete extension for taking tests. The good thing about Prepaway is, it’s free, and it has almost every IT Exam questions. Unfortunately, the newly windows Server 2016 Exams aren&#8217;t available, but I ensure you that they will update that. In the below table Practice Exams for these companies are available.</p>

<p>Exam-labs is even easier than the Prepaway. All you need is to create an account, find your IT course, &amp; start answering the questions. The good thing about Exam-labs is, it has a commenting section, where different users have commented their answers. It means you can interact with people which is too helpful.</p>
<p>Both of this sites, have more than 100 Exams-labs, where you can use them for your Exam Preparations.</p>
<h2>How to use Prepaway for self-Examinations?</h2>
<p>Setting up a Prepaway is very easy, if you want, you can skip this section.</p>
<p><strong>Step 1</strong>. Open Prepaway &amp; create an account.</p>
<p><strong>Step 2</strong>. Download &amp; Install the Exam Testing Engine on Your Device. Whether you are using Windows, Mac, or Android.</p>
<p>Note: For Downloading the ETE it will take you to another site where you have to create another account in Vumingo. I’m using Windows Server 2012R2 so I will download ETE for Windows.</p>
<p>Installation of ETE is really easy, you can do that with some steps.</p>
<p><strong>Step 3</strong>. After installing the ETE you have to download the .ete of your desired Exam Preparation. I have already downloaded the .ete of 70-740 of Windows Server 2012R2.</p>
<p>Once you have downloaded your exam preparation ETE, just double-click on it.</p>
<p><strong>Step 4</strong>. Now you have to insert the Email &amp; Password of Vumingo.</p>
<p>If you click on the Properties, then you will see the time, Exam type &amp; Passing score.</p>
<p>Once you have started the test then you have to type the candidate name &amp; apply the settings as you need.</p>
<p><strong>Step 5</strong>. Select begin to start Exam.</p>
<p>Note: You can check answers. Look at the below screenshot, I have selected the wrong answer, then it has given me the right answer with Reasons.</p>

<h2>Get Involved with Free IT online Courses</h2>
<p>If you have real problems with your IT career, then you have to take a class. Probably take a course around you or online, the choice is yours. If you have a good budget, you have to take online courses from below sites.</p>
<ul>
<li>CBT NUGGETS</li>
<li>Lynda</li>
<li>Udemy</li>
<li>Coursera</li>
<li>Open Culture</li>
<li>EDx</li>
<li>TutsPlus</li>
<li>Udacity</li>
<li>Alison</li>
<li>FutureLearn</li>
<li>OpenLearn</li>
</ul>
<p>These sites have professional instructors, which will be too much helpful to prepare IT certifications. I’m using the Cbtnuggets, Lynda &amp; Udemy for my online courses. But if you are really out of budget you can try the Prepaway.com. Prepaway not only offers Free Exam Certifications but in the meantime they free online courses too. I have used their courses, they are pretty good. I know these two sites for Free Exam Certification &amp; IT Courses for IT Geeks. If your other sites, please let me know in the comment.</p>
<h2>Conclusion:</h2>
<p>This is all about how to prepare IT certifications with free online courses and exams. I hope this Article was helpful to You. If you have any idea or suggestion Please comment on the article or visit the Forum.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div style="margin-bottom:20px;"></div><p>This is a CCNA Security path guide that helps you pursuit the cyber security certifications for empowering your job opportunity. Most CCNA security certified are just follow up directly to CCIE Security certification. It&#8217;s good for working only in the field of Cisco network devices. But if you want to have a better job opportunity, you should study-wide variety knowledge of security certifications and get wider your information security knowledge.</p>
<p>CCNA security is the point where you start to become a security specialist for Cisco network devices. The new CCNA Routing and Switching focus on security objectives as well.</p>

<h2>CCNA Security Path to Cyber Security Certifications</h2>
<p>Generally, information security begins from CompTIA security+ certification. It has a good theoretical general knowledge of cyber security. But it&#8217;s not enough, just for beginners. To follow-up to the high-level computer security, follow them step by step and work hard to get experience.</p>
<p><strong>Related:</strong> <a href="https://www.technig.com/top-cyber-security-certifications/">Top 15 Most Wanted Cyber Security Certifications</a></p>
<p>Some prerequisite certification required for CCNA Security. The only thing you should do is just pass the CCENT certification and have the knowledge of common Cisco network devices.</p>
<blockquote><p>Cisco Certified Network Associate Security (CCNA Security) validates associate-level knowledge and skills required to secure Cisco networks. With a CCNA Security certification, a network professional demonstrates the skills required to develop a security infrastructure, recognize threats and vulnerabilities to networks, and mitigate security threats. The CCNA Security curriculum emphasizes core security technologies, the installation, troubleshooting and monitoring of network devices to maintain integrity, confidentiality and availability of data and devices, and competency in the technologies that Cisco uses in its security structure.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>Prerequisites for CCNA Security:</strong></p>
<p>Any valid Cisco CCENT, CCNA Routing and Switching, or any CCIE certification can act as a prerequisite.</p>
<figure id="attachment_8628" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-8628" style="width: 840px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://www.technig.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Cisco-Certifications-Roadmap-Technig.png"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-8628" src="https://www.technig.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Cisco-Certifications-Roadmap-Technig.png" alt="Cisco Certifications Roadmap - Technig" width="840" height="374" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-8628" class="wp-caption-text">Cisco Certifications Roadmap &#8211; Technig</figcaption></figure>
<p>The chart indicates the CCNA Security path to CCIE Security. Notice that the beginning point of CCNA security is CCENT, that is not good to begin study directly the Cisco security certification. If you would have the CCNA Routing and Switching certification, the CCNA security will become easy to you.</p>
<p>Another security certification Cisco provides for security specialist is Cisco Cybersecurity Specialist certification. It recognizes security professionals who have attained specialized in-depth expertise and proven knowledge in the essential areas of proactive cyber threat detection and mitigation.</p>
<p><strong>Related: </strong><a href="https://www.technig.com/packet-tracer-ccna-practical-labs/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Packet Tracer CCNA Practical Labs</a></p>
<p>Designed for professional security analysts and leveraging the features of Cisco and other network security products used today, the Cisco Cybersecurity Specialist certification focuses on the topics of event monitoring, security event/alarm/traffic analysis, and incident response. For achieving this certification, there is no prerequisite required. However, a thorough understanding of TCP/IP and a working knowledge of CCNA Security is highly recommended.</p>

<h2>11. Computer Hacking Forensic Investigator Certification</h2>
<p>Computer forensics is the application of computer investigation and analysis techniques in the interests of determining potential legal evidence. Evidence might be sought in a wide range of computer crimes or misuse, including but not limited to; theft of trade secrets, theft of or destruction of intellectual property, and fraud. Computer forensic investigators can draw from an array of methods for discovering data that resides in a computer system or recover deleted, encrypted, or damaged file information.</p>
<p>The CHFI course will give participants the necessary skills to identify an intruder’s footprints and to properly gather the necessary evidence to prosecute. Many of today’s top tools of the forensic trade will be taught during this course, including software, hardware, and specialised techniques. It is no longer a matter of “will your organisation be comprised (hacked)?” but, rather, “when?” Today’s battle between corporations, governments, and countries are no longer fought only in the common areas of boardrooms or battlefields using physical force. Now, the battlefield starts in the technical realm, which ties into almost every facet of modern-day life. If you or your organisation requires the knowledge or skills to identify, track, and prosecute the cyber-criminal, then this is the course for you.</p>
