Certified Penetration Testing Professional (CPENT)

The Certified Penetration Testing Professional or CPENT, for short, re-writes the standards of penetration testing skill development.

EC-Council’s Certified Penetration Tester (CPENT) program teaches you how to perform an effective penetration test in an enterprise network environment that must be attacked, exploited, evaded, and defended. If you have only been working in flat networks, CPENT’s live practice range will teach you to take your skills to the next level by teaching you how to pen test IoT systems, OT systems, how to write your own exploits, build your own tools, conduct advanced binaries exploitation, double pivot to access hidden networks, and also customize scripts/exploits to get into the innermost segments of the network.

About the exam

The Certified Penetration Testing Professional (CPENT) exam is a fully online, remotely proctored, performance-based challenge designed to push your limits. Spanning a rigorous 24-hour hands-on assessment, the exam is divided into two intense 12-hour segments—or can be taken as a single 24-hour marathon—depending on your preference. Each phase is crafted to test your resilience, precision, and ability to adapt under pressure.

Achieving a score of 70% or higher earns you the CPENT certification, validating your advanced penetration testing capabilities. Those who excel with a score of 90% or above are awarded the elite Licensed Penetration Tester (LPT) Master credential—an industry-recognized mark of cybersecurity excellence.
