Our Verdict
<p>A comprehensive social engineering course from Zaid Sabih with real-world context, clear explanations, and practical assignments. However, there are concerns about the reliance on outdated tools and content duplication with other courses, making it essential to research recent developments in chosen areas prior to employing these techniques in real-life situations.<br><br>As evident by the global rating of 4.61, it has proven value for many learners interested in ethical hacking and penetration testing concepts. It should be noted that the focus of this Learn Social Engineering from Scratch 2024 course seems to be more on Windows and Linux platforms rather than a diverse showcase of social engineering attacks across all systems.<br><br>In summary, despite minor shortcomings, it is an insightful resource for gaining ethical hacking skills but should not serve as the only learning material in this subject area.<br></p>
What We Liked
- Highly detailed course covering a broad range of social engineering techniques and tools (12.5 hours)
- Excellent teaching style, with clear explanations and real-world context
- Practical assignments and attack simulations to reinforce learning
- Linux basics, command line usage, and overall sysadmin guidance
Potential Drawbacks
- Relies on outdated tools and examples from 2016 which may not work in practice today
- Content duplication with other courses, not solely focused on social engineering
- Limited emphasis on mobile devices and iOS platforms, more oriented towards Windows and Linux systems
- Mixed experiences reported for customer support
