Exploitation techniques

Exploitation techniques are methods used to take advantage of vulnerabilities in software, networks, or systems for unauthorized access or malicious purposes. Coursera's Exploitation Techniques catalogue teaches you the fundamentals of identifying and understanding various exploit types, their classifications, and how they operate within cybersecurity contexts. You'll learn to analyze remote and local exploits, differentiate between server-side and client-side attacks, and understand advanced concepts like zero-click exploits and pivoting techniques. Mastering this skill empowers cybersecurity professionals to better protect systems, conduct ethical hacking, and develop robust defense strategies against evolving cyber threats.
