“ Mr. Evans was an excellent instructor, extremely knowledgeable, providing real world
experience with the in class lectures. Mr Evans, was helpful and provided the students the
foundational information they needed to succeed on both the certification tests and with
applicable job skills. He also allowed students to expand their skill sets with advanced labs.
The combination of lecture, labs, games, and his expertise, Mr. Evans prepared every

“Jeremy was extremely helpful with any questions from any student. Answers were
very helpful and easily understood. The lectures were never boring at any time
during the week. I will definitely recommend this course and instructor to
coworkers. There were students at many different levels of Pen Testing
understanding, and Jeremy was able to help everyone. I come from a programming
background with no pentesting experience, and was able to pass the CEH and CPT
with a 92%. The course moves quickly to cover a ton of information, but goes into
an adequate amount of detail. The labs in particular were very helpful for me to
learn how to use the material I learned during lectures. Capture the flag was
also helpful to get more practice in addition to the labs, and it was also fun.”

“This was a phenomenal class! The instructor was extremely knowledgeable and
crafted the exercises so that we truly learned the material. I have a whole new
appreciation for how vulnerabilities are exploited. I have gained very practical
skills and knowledge in this class which will help me tremendously in my job. I
will highly recommend this course to all of my co-workers. This class should be
a must for any true security professional. There were several moments during the
week when I was amazed at how vulnerable systems truly are. The practical labs
and competition teams made the experience fun. I have learned some extremely
valuable skills.”

“Course provided both real-world answers, and information needed to prepare for
the test. Knowing that the certification tests don't encompass the entire job or
skill set, the real-world knowledge should help prepare students for the job
market as well.”

“I was very very pleased with the course and LABS. The labs were awesome and very
interactive and the instructor did a great job explaining any question I had. All
my knowledge of Cisco routers, switches, firewalls, trojans, A+, NET+, MCSA and
things I have toyed with at home all came into play in this class. I was very
very very pleased with the instructor’s knowledge. I have been to other training
centers such as and by far Infosec Institute, the penetration testing class
taught by Keatron Evans was by far the best compared to others. I was very
impressed with the instructor’s knowledge and expertise. I will schedule another
class in the future and choose Infosec.”

“I was blown away by the instructor’s knowledge and expertise. I came here
knowing very little about pen testing and white hack hacking...and have been
subjected to an amazing amount of information that was easy to understand and
delivered in such a way that I could get it. I mean, I could grasp the concepts,
if I had a question he always had the answer, and I have been very pleased with
this class. Thank you. Would recommend to anyone thinking about being a pen
tester.”

“I got a lot out of the real world scenarios presented in class. Jeremy is very
knowledgeable in the field of penetration testing. Would definitely take classes
again if he is the instructor. The course books are a great reference, and it was
nice to have a dedicated training laptop provided by Infosec and not have to
bring my own and waste time installing programs during class”

“I feel extremely fortunate and humbled to have been taught by such an expert
instructor! I liked the expert knowledge of the instructor, and his ability to
clearly demonstrate it. It was great to be close to the strip in Las Vegas but
yet still in a quiet hotel where I could concentrate on the training at hand.”

“Dan is an excellent instructor and incredibly knowledgeable. Great presenter

and very helpful. The course was very intense but well structured. The hours
were long but it really allows you to get your head wrapped around it. Slide
notes were very good as well as the lab pre-info. The labs tied well into the
course. The content and knowledge gained will be invaluable in my career.”

Rummy Dabgotra

“I commend InfoSec Institute on the out-of-the-box thinking that goes into

creating a training program to teach something that is so misunderstood.
Keatron's knowledge of the information was exceptional. He presented the topics
in a way that was accessible to even the most laymen of user. There was an
incredible amount of information, but Keatron maintained focus and we were able
to absorb a great deal of it through labs and exercises. The most rewarding of
the exercises were the CTFs, pitting one side of the class against the other. I
would definitely take another course with Keatron.”

“InfoSec has outstanding knowledge of ethical hacking and other subject areas.
Real-world examples, along with lab and study materials, makes this class a must
for anyone interested in ethical hacking. The interactive labs enforced the
concepts presented by Keatron and the written materials he used and also created
during this course. I found this extremely helpful.”

“For the amount of material covered, I think this course is designed very well.
The labs complimented the lectures well and provided for a good applicable of
skills. I liked the labs, examples of how skills have been used by both whitehat

spend time on any topics asked.”

“Great course! I liked some more focus on web exploits, only because it is an
interest of mine. Very good presenter of the material with real-world experience
to back what the lectures were about. I liked the hands on and real world
application of the content. Other classes I have been through from other
Security Institutes focused more on lecture and the labs didn't reinforce the
content as well. This class was by far MUCH better.”

Michael Hennick

“The instructor Keatron is obviously very knowledgeable about the material from
real world experience. He was able to convey the material required for the tests
while demonstrating the real applications for the material. By putting the
information in a very logical, applicable context, I am very comfortable going
out and securing networks by way of penetration testing. I would recommend this
course and Keatron specifically to anyone else who wants to beef up their
security skillset. I plan on attending the Advanced Ethical Hacking course as
soon as I can get funding approval from my company. I liked the no nonsense -
real world application and hands-on labs.”

“Keatron has very vast and deep knowledge of course material. In addition to his
outstanding knowledge, his teaching skills are excellent. Keatron managed to
convey potentially dry technical information to the students, in an interesting

course was the labs. Actually using the tools and being able to see their effects
on the Virtual machines really solidified the concepts taught in the lecture
slides. Plus the labs were actually really fun.”
