Hello community,

I am considering pursuing the CPTS certification, but I have heard it is a particularly challenging exam. I recently transitioned from software development to penetration testing and have four years of total IT experience.

My current technical background includes:

• Intermediate networking knowledge.
• Basic Active Directory skills.
• Strong proficiency in web

i used also to solve easy labs in HTB and have been in 2 pentesting internships.
i consider myself something between beginner and intermediate pentester.

now my question for those who passed CPTS, is this certification a good start (first certification to get) or no?
