I’m happy to share that I’ve obtained a new certification - Microsoft Cloud Red Team Professional (MCRTP) from Pwned Labs! The exam was a deep dive into Azure penetration testing, from initial access to the core services of Azure - there was literally no service left untouched, as the labs, CTF challenges, and exam took me through every aspect of Azure security. Huge thanks to Ian Austin, the mastermind behind this challenge!

Since launching the Microsoft Cloud Attack and Defense bootcamp and Microsoft Cloud Red Team Professional certification, we have been amazed with the positive feedback from the community, and are continuing to update it as security never stands still. Early-bird pricing for the Microsoft Cloud Attack and Defense bootcamp ends today - take advantage and level up in Azure and M365 security! Learn more here! https://lnkd.in/e7GrunMx

I will be hosting a FREE AWS Hacking Workshop with my friend Lizzie Moratti. Lizzie is a security engineer at GitLab and has extensive experience with AWS pentesting. This will be a hands-on workshop covering the new "SNS Secrets" scenario from CloudGoat. We will also provide a roadmap for those interested in AWS pentesting! A big thank you to Pwned Labs for sponsoring this interview! As a result of the sponsorship, we will also be giving away the following in a drawing (only those who attend will be eligible) - One Year Premium Sub to Pwned Labs (x1) - AWS Pentesting Bootcamp & Cert Voucher - ACRTP (x1) Event: https://lnkd.in/gUyvft_N

🚀 Achievement Unlocked! 🚀 I'm thrilled to announce that I have successfully passed the Microsoft Cloud Red Team Professional (MCRTP) certification by Pwned Labs! Let's be real for a moment outside of this AI-generated content. I failed this exam TWICE before finally passing it. My first two attempts tested my knowledge and skills, which were adequate then, but the exam tested my fortitude and mindset the most. I got in my own way. I was frustrated with myself, didn't slow down my thinking process, and got stuck on minor things. I went back after each failure, studied my notes, redid the labs again, consulted a friend, and created a list to slow myself down. Ultimately, it was a lesson in persistence, perseverance, and a battle against myself. A big thank you to Ian Austin for creating a brute of an exam that not only tested my abilities but my character as well. And now...back to the AI-generated content. The hands-on labs and real-world simulations pushed my skills in: 🔍 Azure Active Directory enumeration & exploitation  🔑 Privilege escalation and lateral movement in cloud environments   📂 Post-exploitation techniques for Azure VMs, storage accounts, and service principals  🔐 Understanding the Azure kill chain and defending against advanced threats I'm excited to leverage these skills to better secure cloud environments and contribute to the ongoing evolution of cybersecurity. Thank you to everyone who has supported me along the way! 🙌 #cybersecurity #cloudsecurity #Azure #MCRTP #redteam #microsoftcloud #PWNEDLABS #security #cyberdefense #cloudcomputing #careerjourney

Looking to skill up on Azure initial access techniques? Look no further! In a new blog post, Marios Pappas dives into phishing, password spraying, unauthenticated enumeration and abusing resources for a foothold. While this is useful for folks interested in offensive Azure, it is also worth a read for defenders who are looking to map (and reduce) their attack surface and increase the security posture of their company.
