"The VHL labs are a must for any infosec professional. They include real world scenarios and do a great job at pushing the student to advance their skills. This is done through manual exploitation and building a good foundation to develop your own pen-testing methodologies. I used the entire lab for OSCP prep and I am pleased with the results so far!
P.S I really did enjoy the real world scenarios over a CTF-ish environment."
"The Course is Awesome, labs are very stable and consistent simulate very well a real world. I learned a lot with the course material and lab machines, another thing all course content is covered in lab machines. Very recommended do this course."
"I signed up for 30 days, completed 19 machines, and then signed up for another 30 days to not only finish my last machine, but eventually earn the Advanced + certification. I could not be happier! I had zero technical issues with the labs and everything went as planned. I am now equivocally more prepared for OSCP PWK!"
"My journey in this program was of great learning. Every box has a teaching for students to learn. In the lab, I came across fully patched boxes that could only be compromised because of a vulnerable application. This is something that can be seen in the real world. The content of the material was solid and clear which is great for newcomers. With this clearness, I was able to understand topics that were for me to grasp.
Big thanks for this training!"
"My experience with VHL over the last month was truly amazing. I learned more in the last 31 days then I have in quite some time. The coursework was very informative and taught me a ton. The hands on experience I gained is invaluable and has opened my eyes to many new things. I hope to one day try some more labs and try for the Advanced+ certificate. Again, I am truly grateful and happy to have chosen VHL labs."
