• A general understanding of penetration testing methods and methodology and a general understanding of Linux are strongly recommended.
  
• A computing environment (Windows, Linux, or Mac*) capable of running a virtual machine with at least 8GB of RAM and 40GB of disk space. *Note that new MacBook Pros with the M1 chip are unable to run virtual machines such as the ones demonstrated in this course.
  
• If you want to follow along with all the hands-on portions of the course, you'll need to purchase the physical equipment and tools used in the course; you can find a full list in the second lesson of the course which is available for preview. Note that some hands-on portions of the course can be completed without physical hardware.
