Anatomy of a Cyber Attack - Beginner Hacking with Metasploit
Anatomy of Advanced Persistent Threats
If you know how they work, you can learn how to stop them
From cyber criminals who seek personal financial information and intellectual property to state-sponsored cyber attacks designed to steal data and compromise infrastructure, today’s advanced persistent threats (APTs) can sidestep cyber security efforts and cause serious damage to your organization. A skilled and determined cyber criminal can use multiple vectors and entry points to navigate around defenses, breach your network in minutes and evade detection for months. APTs present a challenge for organizational cyber security efforts.
The six steps of an APT attack
To improve your cyber security and successfully prevent, detect, and resolve advanced persistent threats, you need to understand how APTs work:
The cyber criminal, or threat actor, gains entry through an email, network, file, or application vulnerability and inserts malware into an organization's network. The network is considered compromised, but not breached.
The advanced malware probes for additional network access and vulnerabilities or communicates with command-and-control (CnC) servers to receive additional instructions and/or malicious code.
The malware typically establishes additional points of compromise to ensure that the cyber attack can continue if one point is closed.
Once a threat actor determines that they have established reliable network access, they gather target data, such as account names and passwords. Even though passwords are often encrypted, encryption can be cracked. Once that happens, the threat actor can identify and access data.
The malware collects data on a staging server, then exfiltrates the data off the network and under the full control of the threat actor. At this point, the network is considered breached.
Evidence of the APT attack is removed, but the network remains compromised. The cyber criminal can return at any time to continue the data breach.
Traditional cyber security measures such as defense-in-depth, firewalls and antivirus cannot protect against an APT attack, and leave organizations vulnerable to data breaches. The Adaptive Defense approach from FireEye is the best strategy to intercept possible APTs at any point in your network, analyze them with the latest available information on threat actors and methodology, and support your security professionals with extensive knowledge of industry and threat groups they may encounter.
Introduction
Security is everyone’s job today, from consumers, to system administrators, to executives. If you are doing
business, you need to elevate the priority of security across your organization and data center. Over the years,
cybercriminals have gotten more advanced and better funded. They are entire teams of highly trained hackers, and
they have built it into a very profitable business. Cybercrime is big business. In many cases, states have built their
own cyberattack teams. These teams are no less important to their state strategies than their army or navy. And just
like these cyber-attack teams are prepared to attack anyone, you too must be prepared to defend against anyone.
Whether you know it or not, you are in a cyber war.
You need to be prepared.
THE ANATOMY OF A CYBER ATTACK: DISSECTING THE SCIENCE BEHIND VIRTUAL CRIME
The Anatomy of a Cyber Attack
Reconnaissance
The first part of the anatomy of a cyber attack is reconnaissance. Hackers usually start by researching and gathering information about the target organization. They look for network ranges, IP addresses, and domain names. And, hackers also search for email addresses of key players in the organization such as CFOs, IT professionals, and CTOs. If the hackers fail to find the email addresses of key players, then they identify vulnerable employees by sending phishing emails. Next, the attackers scan for vulnerabilities in the network, which is a long process, that sometimes, take months. After they get an entry to the organization via network vulnerabilities or employee email address, attackers proceed to the next phase.
Attack
After getting access to the network, a hacker proceeds to infiltrate the organization’s network. But, to access the network freely, the attacker needs access privileges. Hence, attackers use rainbow tables and similar tools, which help them in stealing credentials to upgrade their access to administrator privileges. Now, hackers can access the entire network, and go through the network silently. Then, attackers are free to obtain sensitive information for selling on the internet or encrypt the data to demand ransom. Sometimes, hackers may also alter or erase sensitive data for reasons beyond financial gain.
Expansion
The next phase of the anatomy of a cyber attack is expansion. Hackers intrude all systems on the network using malicious programs. Malicious programs enable attackers to hide in multiple systems in the organizations and regain access to the network even after being detected. Additionally, hackers no longer require higher access to infiltrate the network.
Obfuscation
Hackers proceed to hide their tracks to mask the origins of the attack. Additionally, the attackers safely place their exploit in a system to avoid getting detected. The main purpose of obfuscation is confusing and disorienting the forensic experts. For successful obfuscation, hackers use various tools and techniques such as spoofing, log cleaning, zombied accounts, and Trojan commands. Cybersecurity experts generally consider obfuscation as the final stage of the anatomy of a cyber attack.
Understanding the Motive behind Cyber Attacks
To effectively protect your organization from cyber attacks, it is essential to understand the motive behind cyber attacks. The motives of a hacker can help find flaws in the anatomy of a cyber attack. For example, the WannaCry ransomware was recently used to attack several hospitals and GP clinics all over the United Kingdom, which cost the NHS almost £92m. The attackers exploited a leaked NSA tool to attack vulnerable Windows systems and encrypt sensitive information. Furthermore, the attack canceled over 19,000 appointments. Similarly, ransomware is used by attackers to encrypt vital information and extort ransom in exchange for decrypting data. Another reason could be cyber terrorism to create fear among the masses. Alternatively, major cyber attacks can also serve as a distraction for something darker behind the curtains.
Preventing the Organization from Cyber Attacks
To protect the organization, business leaders such as CIOs and CTOs need to hire skilled cybersecurity professionals. Cybersecurity experts spend years in researching and studying the anatomy of a cyber attack, and they know how to prevent or at least minimize the impact of cyber attacks. Cybersecurity experts can maintain the security standards in your organization through multiple steps and measures such as follows:
Cybersecurity experts test the systems and the network for vulnerabilities and fix them preemptively.
Intrusion prevention technology is capable of detecting reconnaissance attempts. And, URL filtering and reputation-based security services can block suspicious links that may contain viruses or malware.
Cybersecurity experts install firewalls and malware scanners to block malware and viruses. Malware is constantly redesigned by attackers to avoid being detected by traditional signature-based systems. Hence, advanced persistent threat protection needs to be used to detect malware based on malware behavior.
Organizations need to pay close attention to the outgoing traffic and apply egress filter to monitor and restrict outgoing traffic.
Cybersecurity experts must conduct regular audits of hardware and software to monitor the health and security strength of their IT systems.
Organizations should consider training employees and educating them about cyber attacks as one of their top priorities.
Creating Damage Reduction and Recovery Strategies
Organizations have to realize that even after following all the security protocols, hackers can still attack their networks and systems. With the help of cybersecurity experts, organizations can analyze the anatomy of a cyber attack to find flaws in the attacks, and exploit the weaknesses to reduce the damage. Various organizations only plan for protection from cyber threats, completely avoiding recovery mechanisms, which can lead to dire consequences in case of an attack. For example, Google is shutting down Google+ due to a data breach that compromised 500,000 user accounts in 2015. But, Google announced that they became aware of the breach during March and June 2018. Learning from the example of Google, organizations should know the importance of minimizing the damage. To reduce the damage from cyber attacks, organizations should consider the following steps:
The first step would be encrypting all the data that your organization owns. Even if an attacker infiltrates the network, decrypting the data will need hours, which may buy some time for the security experts to find the source of the attack.
Organizations must adopt two-factor authentication system, as passwords can get leaked easily. With two-factor authentication, the attacker cannot access the data even after acquiring the leaked passwords.
For better data loss prevention, cybersecurity systems should set up alerts for outgoing data. The alerts can notify the organization about their data being stolen after a data breach.
Hackers control the systems and networks with malware-based communication systems. Hence, blocking outgoing command and control connections can effectively stop outgoing malware communication.
Applying Modern Technologies for Better Cybersecurity
Artificial intelligence is playing a pivotal role in cybersecurity. Machine learning has the ability to analyze the anatomy of a cyber attack, and learn from the behavior patterns of malware. Moreover, artificial intelligence can automate threat detection and data recovery mechanisms. Hence, AI-powered applications can find security threats and implement recovery strategies more efficiently when compared to software-based solutions. And, big players such as Microsoft, Google, Palo Alto Networks, Fortinet and Cisco Systems are already developing cybersecurity solutions using artificial intelligence and machine learning. With the exponential development of artificial intelligence, numerous security software have started adopting machine learning to provide more effective cybersecurity solutions.
Likewise, blockchain technology has the potential to improve cybersecurity. Blockchain can effectively detect a data breach, and disrupt the process that forms the anatomy of a cyber attack. With blockchain, organizations can distribute their data over the network, which will simplify the process of data recovery. And, the changes in data would be transparent. Hence, if the data is altered or deleted, tracking the changes will be an easy process. Furthermore, multiple cybersecurity firms are working on developing blockchain-powered security solutions for mainstream applications. For example, Acronis, a cybersecurity organization, is applying blockchain technology to generate a cryptographic hash, that is unique for every data file. The hash can be used to verify the authenticity of every file. And, it is almost impossible for a hacker to compute the cryptographic hash. Thus, AI and blockchain are revolutionizing the cybersecurity landscape.
Although the technology and methods to fight cyber attacks are getting better, hackers are also developing their techniques to execute stronger attacks. And, with new malware and ransomware being developed, these attacks can lead to bigger data breaches than any we’ve seen before. Hence, organizations need to become aware of the anatomy of a cyber attack to be able to tackle cybersecurity issues better.
7 Phases of a Cyber Criminal’s Methodology.
Hacks are ever-evolving and come in all shapes and sizes, making it dangerous to muddle them together into one category. But having said that, outlining the general methodology of most cyber-attacks in seven phases can be helpful for mapping tactical threat intelligence.
Inspired by Lockheed Martin’s Cyber Kill Chain, we associated each phase of a cyber-attack with the anatomy of a bug (pun intended). Much like a living creature, the state of each organ or limb affects the health of the entire organism. The more victims know about each stage, the better they can prevent and respond to attacks – so that critical assets don’t end up in the criminal’s belly every time.
Here are 7 components in the anatomy of a cyber-attack, each explained by Fortinet:
1-Reconnaissance: Attacker needs to understand as much as they can about an organisation and its network to plan their attack. So at this stage, an organisation’s defence and response mechanisms are researched and tested. Attackers looking for unpatched devices or operating systems use social media to learn about employees and look for other important company information, such as what applications it might have on its network. They may also research the victim’s business partners to assess if one of them has a weaker security stance that can become a pathway into the desired network.
2 -Weaponisation: Once vulnerabilities are identified within the targeted organisation, attackers build malicious code to exploit them undetected. If the attacker is a nation state actor they are likely to use a zero-day exploit, but most cyber criminals use exploit kits focused on publicly known vulnerabilities. Many of such kits use evasion techniques that can by-pass a number of technological controls, such as firewalls and antivirus.
3 -Delivery: Once the cyber-weapon is chosen and/or built, the attacker needs to find the best mechanism to deliver it. Delivery vehicles include infected websites, malvertising, and one of the most common: phishing emails and social engineering. With so much information online about employees, phishing emails are becoming extremely personalised and increasingly harder to distinguish from a legitimate one. Unfortunately, all the threat actor needs in order to succeed on this stage is to trick one employee into clicking a link.
4 – Exploitation: Once the exploit is delivered, it needs to be executed without being detected. With phishing emails as a preferred tool, many attacks are performed in the client-side of the network, focused on the user’s browser and its vulnerable plug-ins, such as flash and java. Other exploits deliver malicious macros and scripts hidden inside documents sent to other users.
5 – Command & Control: Once successfully executed, the exploit tries to communicate with the threat actor behind it in order to download malware and other tools to further compromise the invaded network. In order to communicate undetected, commands and requests are usually tunnelled through protocols such as HTTP(S), DNS, or TOR and communications is often encrypted.
6 – Internal reconnaissance: Since the first insertion point is usually a vulnerable workstation, attackers need to move laterally through the victim’s network in order to map its infrastructure and find the data they are looking for to complete their cyber mission. To do that, they need to compromise other devices, including IoT and healthcare devices in the network. A good place to start is finding a server that stores all user and device credentials, such as an Active Directory Server.
7 -Maintain: Attackers want to stay for as long as possible in the victim’s network, so they dig deep inside it to maintain a foothold -by installing things such as rootkits for hiding files, or kernel-mode rootkits called bootkits. Bootkits can infect start-up code in order to gain unrestricted access to an entire computer, so the exploit can control all that the user is allowed to see. But it can become challenging for the attacker when the data they want to steal is not located on a device with direct access to the internet. In this case, once the threat actor has targeted the data, they may need to find and compromise another server that has access to the Internet to be used as a staging area – an intermediate storage area that allows for the extraction process –, such as data warehouses or other data repositories.

WiFi Hacking - Wireless Penetration Testing for Beginners
hackers come in all shapes, sizes and colors. Hacking is a very wide term. And by the first sentence, I'm not referring to the physical characters of the hackers, I'm talking about the field of specialization. Believe me, there is a lot of work to do on the Wireless domain that we had been working on so far (we have only touched wireless networks for the time being - you are a beginner), but wireless hacking is but a small island in the vast sea of hacking. A relatively large landmass is unarguably Penetration Testing, and a large name in this context is Metasploit. So here's a guide which will give you a good idea about what Penetration testing is, and if you're feeling to lazy, I've got it summarized here.
What is a penetration test?
What is penetration testing? Penetration testing, often called “pentesting”,“pen testing”, or “security testing”, is the practice of attacking your own or your clients’ IT systems in the same way a hacker would to identify security holes. Of course, you do this without actually harming the network. The person carrying out a penetration test is called a penetration tester or pentester.
How legal is it?
Let’s make one thing crystal clear: Penetration testing requires that you get permission from the person who owns the system. Otherwise, you would be hacking the system, which is illegal in most countries – and trust me, you don’t look good in an orange jump suit (or maybe you do, still I don't recommend going to jail for it, buy one if you need it).
In other words: The difference between penetration testing and hacking is whether you have the system owner’s permission. If you want to do a penetration test on someone else's system, it is highly recommended that you get written permission. Much better, get your virtual machine up and running, with your already acquired VMWare skills, and practice on your own system.
What is a vulnerability?
A vulnerability is a security hole in a piece of software, hardware or operating system that provides a potential angle to attack the system. A vulnerability can be as simple as weak passwords or as complex as buffer overflows or SQL injection vulnerabilities. (SQL injection is another topic I'd like to touch. Later maybe. I'm taking up too many tasks at hand at once.)
What is security research?
Vulnerabilities are typically found by security researchers, which is a geeky term for smart people (how much we hackers love to call our self smart, especially the beginners who get too cocky) who like to find flaws in systems and break them.
What is an exploit?
To take advantage of a vulnerability, you often need an exploit, a small and highly specialized computer program whose only reason of being is to take advantage of a specific vulnerability and to provide access to a computer system. Exploits often deliver a payload to the target system to grant the attacker access to the system.
The Metasploit Project host the world’s largest public database of quality-assured exploits. Have a look at their exploit database – it’s right here on the site mentioned in the beginning of the article.
What is a payload?
A payload is the piece of software that lets you control a computer system after it’s been exploited. The payload is typically attached to and delivered by the exploit. Just imagine an exploit that carries the payload in its backpack when it breaks into the system and then leaves the backpack there. Yes, it’s a corny description, but you get the picture.
Metasploit’s most popular payload is called Meterpreter, which enables you to do all sorts of funky stuff on the target system. For example, you can upload and download files from the system, take screenshots, and collect password hashes. You can even take over the screen, mouse, and keyboard to fully control the computer. If you’re feeling particularly bad-ass, you can even turn on a laptop’s webcam and be a fly on the wall.
I would say that a payload is what exploits the 'exploit' and gives you some control over the exploited victim. Meterpreter is THE exploit, cause it doesn't give you 'some' control, it gives you ALL of it (that's some way to put it, yes,but not completely true. It still is the best payload. Beginners/noobs really enjoy the GUI feature available in this payload)
What to do next
Wait for more tutorials, or go ahead learning stuff without me. Not recommended, its gonna be a bumpy ride if you don't have us(I am only one person, why do I keep referring to myself as us?) to stabilize you. But still if you wanna go ahead, then Rapid7 is the best place to get started. Best of luck beginners.

Description
This course includes an overview of the various types of wireless (802.11) networks, available encryption security systems (WEP, WPA, and WPA2), and how to use open-source tools to hack and crack these vulnerable wireless (WiFi) networks.
Since their introduction in 1999, wireless networks have been rapidly expanding in their usage and availability. Unfortunately, many people believe these wireless networks are designed as a secure solution for sharing data, but this is rarely the case. In this course, you will gain a deeper understanding of the WEP, WPA, and WPA2 wireless security protocols, and how to exploit their vulnerabilities in order to gain access to any wireless network during a penetration test. You will use this information to increase the security of your networks and to implement a better defensive security posture to prevent an attacker from accessing your networks.

Description
A Certified Ethical Hacker is a skilled professional who understands and knows how to look for weaknesses and vulnerabilities in target systems and uses the same knowledge and tools as a malicious hacker, but in a lawful and legitimate manner to assess the security posture of a target system(s). The CEH credential certifies individuals in the specific network security discipline of Ethical Hacking from a vendor-neutral perspective.
The Purpose of the CEH credential is to:
Establish and govern minimum standards for credentialing professional information security specialists in ethical hacking measures.
Inform the public that credentialed individuals meet or exceed the minimum standards.
Reinforce ethical hacking as a unique and self-regulating profession.
About the Exam
Number of Questions: 125
Test Duration: 4 Hours
Test Format: Multiple Choice
Test Delivery: ECC EXAM, VUE
Exam Prefix: 312-50 (ECC EXAM), 312-50 (VUE)
Passing Score
In order to maintain the high integrity of our certifications exams, EC-Council Exams are provided in multiple forms (I.e. different question banks). Each form is carefully analyzed through beta testing with an appropriate sample group under the purview of a committee of subject matter experts that ensure that each of our exams not only has academic rigor but also has “real world” applicability. We also have a process to determine the difficulty rating of each question. The individual rating then contributes to an overall “Cut Score” for each exam form. To ensure each form has equal assessment standards, cut scores are set on a “per exam form” basis. Depending on which exam form is challenged, cut scores can range from 60% to 85%.
Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) is a qualification obtained by demonstrating knowledge of assessing the security of computer systems by looking for weaknesses and vulnerabilities in target systems, using the same knowledge and tools as a malicious hacker, but in a lawful and legitimate manner to assess the security posture of a target system. This knowledge is assessed by answering multiple choice questions regarding various ethical hacking techniques and tools. The code for the C|EH exam is 312-50. This certification has now been made a baseline with a progression to the C|EH (Practical), launched in March 2018, a test of penetration testing skills in a lab environment where the candidate must demonstrate the ability to apply techniques and use penetration testing tools to compromise various simulated systems within a virtual environment.
Ethical hackers are employed by organizations to penetrate networks and computer systems with the purpose of finding and fixing security vulnerabilities. The EC-Council offers another certification, known as Certified Network Defense Architect (CNDA). This certification is designed for United States Government agencies and is available only to members of selected agencies including some private government contractors, primarily in compliance to DOD Directive 8570.01-M.[1] It is also ANSI accredited and is recognized as a GCHQ Certified Training (GCT).

“Hacker” didn't start out as a bad word, but it's evolved into one, thanks to hackers of the malicious kind. Despite how oxymoronic the term “ethical hacker” may seem, the Certified Ethical Hacker credential is no joke.
Certified Ethical Hacker (
CEH) is a computer certification that indicates proficiency in network security, especially in thwarting malicious hacking attacks through pre-emptive countermeasures.
Malicious hacking is a felony in the U.S. and most other countries, but catching criminals requires the same technical skills that hackers possess.
About the CEH
The CEH credential is a vendor-neutral certification for information technology professionals who wish to specialize in stopping and identifying malicious hackers by using the same knowledge and tools the criminals use.
Even before the credential was introduced, private firms and government agencies were hiring reformed malicious hackers because they believed that was the best method for securing their networks. The CEH credential takes this a step further by requiring those who earn it to agree in writing to abide by the law and honor a code of ethics.
The credential is sponsored by the International Council of E-Commerce Consultants (EC-Council), a member-supported professional organization. Its goal, according to its website, is to establish and maintain standards and credentials for ethical hacking as a profession and to educate IT professionals and the public on the role and value of such specialists.
In addition to CEH certification, the EC-Council offers several other certifications relevant for network security jobs, as well as those for secure programming, e-business, and computer forensics jobs. Certification proficiency levels range from entry-level to consultant (independent contractor).
How to Become a CEH
Students who have a minimum of two years of security-related job experience can apply for approval to take the EC-Council exam. Those without two years of experience will be required to attend training at an accredited training center, through an approved online program, or at an approved academic institution. These requirements prepare applicants for the exam and help screen out malicious hackers and hobbyists.
As of 2018, the courseware price for the five-day certification course was $850. The application fee for those seeking to bypass the training course was $100, and the exam voucher price was $950.
The Course
The CEH Training Program prepares students to take the CEH 312-50 exam. It consists of 18 modules covering 270 attack technologies and mimics real-life scenarios in 140 labs. The course is run on an intensive five-day schedule with training eight hours per day.
In the end, the goal is for students to be ready for the exam in addition to being ready to handle whatever penetration testing or ethical hacking scenarios come their way in their IT security careers.
The Exam
The 312-50 exam lasts four hours, comprises 125 multiple-choice questions, and tests CEH candidates on the following 18 areas:
Introduction to ethical hacking
Footprinting and reconnaissance
Scanning networks
Enumeration
System hacking
Malware threats
Sniffing
Social engineering
Denial of service
Session hijacking
Hacking web servers
Hacking web applications
SQL injection
Hacking wireless networks
Hacking mobile platforms
Evading IDS, firewalls, and honeypots
Cloud computing
Cryptography
Job Outlook
IT security is a fast-growing field, and the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) projects job growth at a rate of 28 percent for the decade ending in 2026. This is far greater than job growth of 7 percent projected for all professions combined. The median annual wage for IT security analysts, as of 2017, was about $95,000, according to the BLS.
A quick search on Indeed shows that many security jobs require or recommend a CEH credential, so candidates who possess one will be more marketable.
Most jobs that CEH-credentialed professionals pursue put candidates through background checks or more rigid personnel security investigations (PSIs). Security clearances likely will be required at government agencies or private firms with government contracts.
Success Stories
Many of the high-profile stories about ethical hackers involve the biggest companies in technology. Companies like Apple, Google, and others will challenge ethical hackers to break their security measures in order to help them find weaknesses and to make their products safer. They often offer a lot of money to anyone who can find a weakness.
In 2016, Nimbus Hosting listed some of the more famous success stories of ethical hackers. Among them are examples of a security team offering a reward to anyone who could take over an iPhone or iPad, and an anonymous hacker who went by the name Pinkie Pie who helped identify a bug in Google Chrome. Not all of these examples involve professionals following the CEH-certification route, but they show the value companies place on hiring hackers to help shore up network security.

12. Risk Management for Cybersecurity and IT Managers
The management's guide to understanding Risk Management decisions in cybersecurity and information technology (IT)!
Start now
Risk Management for Cybersecurity and IT Managers
Description
Have you ever wondered why your organization's executives or your manager made a decision to fund or not fund your project?
In this course, you will get an inside look at how cybersecurity and information technology (IT) managers determine which projects they will support with funding and which they won't based on a preliminary risk analysis. Over the past two decades, I have worked in the cybersecurity and information technology realm, fighting for my projects to become funded. Early in my career, I didn't understand why certain projects would be funded and executed, while others wouldn't. What I learned, is that it all came down to Risk Management by our executives and managers.
You will learn the terms used by executives and managers in discussing Risk Management, and how to apply the concepts of Risk Management to your networks, systems, and projects. This course is not an operational or tactical course that focuses on how you will secure your networks, but instead focuses on the mindset of managers and teaches you how to think like they do. Once you master these concepts, it is much easier to build your business case for your projects and justify your budgetary needs.
Throughout this course, we will discuss what comprises Risk (assets, threats, and vulnerabilities), providing numerous real world examples along the way. We will also cover Qualitative and Quantitative Risk Measurements, showing how you can calculate the risk of an uncertainty due to vulnerabilities and threats.
This course also includes two case studies of what happens when risk management fails, as demonstrated by the Amazon Web Services outage and Equifax data breach that both occurred in 2017. You will learn to better understand these scenarios, what caused the outage/breach, and why managers may have made the decisions they did that led up to them.
Who this course is for:
Information Technology mangers
Cybersecurity managers
Aspiring managers
What you'll learn
Understand the foundations of Risk Management in the cybersecurity and information technology field
Be able to use qualitative risk measurement techniques when discussing networks and projects
Be able to use quantitative risk measurement techniques when discussing networks and projects
Discuss current events in the technology space in relation to risk management decisions
Requirements
No special tools are required, just a willingness to learn about Risk Management in the Cybersecurity and Information Technology (IT) field

I passed the Security+ exam. This course was absolutely essential to passing that exam. Only the Dion Security+ covered the topics comprehensively and thoroughly enough. No other resource I used came close. (Kolya, 5 stars)
I have just completed watching two different instructor corses on the same subject. I must say, Dion's has more information in a better constructed manner. This course is not easy, it is heavy with information and having you sit through shorter videos was the best part. Having watched more than just Dion's, I can say he goes over the content much better. Very glad I chose to watch a second course! (Rutger, 5 stars)

Description
The
Computing Technology Industry Association (CompTIA), is a non-profit trade association, issuing professional certifications for the information technology (IT) industry. It is considered as one of the IT industry's top trade associations.[2] Based in Downers Grove, Illinois, CompTIA issues vendor-neutral professional certifications in over 120 countries. The organization releases over 50 industry studies annually to track industry trends and changes. Over 2.2 million people have earned CompTIA certifications since the association was established.[1]
History
CompTIA was created in 1982 as the Association of Better Computer Dealers (ABCD).[3] ABCD later changed its name to the Computing Technology Industry Association.[4]
In 2010, CompTIA moved into its world headquarters in Downers Grove, Illinois. The building was designed to meet LEED CI Certification standards.[5]
The CompTIA portal moved to a hybrid version of the open-access model in April 2014 with exclusive content for due-paying members.[6][7] The move expanded the organization's reach to engage a broader, more diverse set of members and within a year, CompTIA's membership grew from 2,050 members to more than 50,000 in 2015.[8] By the close of 2016, the organization boasted more than 100,000 members worldwide.
CompTIA launched the Dream IT program in 2014 to provide resources for girls and women in the United States interested in the IT industry. In October 2015, the program was expanded into the UK.[9]
Skillsboost, CompTIA's online resource for schools, was launched in June 2015. It contained resources for students, parents and teachers to promote the importance of computer skills.[10][11] CompTIA held its first annual ChannelCon Vendor Summit in 2015. The Vendor Summit is exclusive to people attending ChannelCon, the industry's premier conference for collaboration, education and networking. It addresses issues within the IT industry.[12]
In January 2017, CompTIA launched an IT professional association built on its acquisition of the Association of Information Technology Professionals
