i just bought the ejpt bundle exam+3 months , gave my full name during billing but my profile has my google account name which is not at all accurate , what should i do????
Hello friends, I’m looking for help regarding the eJPT exam. I’d like to know about potential discounts on the exam voucher and also get some advice on study resources to help me earn this certification. I’d really appreciate any help you can provide.
How hard is eJPT? Are there any TryHackMe Rooms that are comparable to eJPT?
I have just completed and reviewed the course materials. I understand the contents but I am not familiar with all the workflows. What should I do next before going for the exam. Is there a CTF list I should do in hackthebox to get myself more familiar with all the workflows? What are the best CTF there you would recommend?
Hello everyone, hello community!
I’m very happy because I passed the eJPTv2 certification a few weeks ago. The exam took me approximately 8–10 hours without really stopping (although during that time I had lunch, later dinner, and even took a one-hour break to watch YouTube).
I had already studied Computer Science for four years and graduated in 2023, so I wasn't a complete beginner. I had experience with Windows Server, Linux, and Networking (although I had to review networking concepts that tend to be forgotten over time, such as the OSI model, especially the Internet and Application layers, HTTP status codes, etc.).
I had also spent about six months practicing (from March 2025 to June 2025). Then I had some personal issues and stopped hacking until I seriously resumed in March 2026 and finished my preparation in June 2026 by taking the certification exam. In total, it was about six months of practice, although with some long breaks in between.
By the time I took the exam, I had completed around 30 CTF machines, most of them on TryHackMe, along with a few from Hack The Box, VulnHub, Vulnyx, HackMyVM, DockerLabs, and others.
I genuinely enjoyed the exam. At one point, I got stuck on a single machine, and the solution turned out to be as simple. (Correct enumeration).
I actually found the pivoting section easy. If you have well-organized notes and have practiced pivoting multiple times in a local lab environment (for example, VirtualBox machines connected through a custom network, with some machines having secondary network interfaces like Metasploitable 2, Basic Pentesting, etc.), you shouldn't have any major issues.
I would also recommend having some SQL knowledge for dumping databases and being comfortable with SSH, both for connecting to systems and performing attacks.
I also read some hacking books on Kindle (Spanish and English), but only the concepts of eJPTv2; that is, I skipped over the resources on Active Directory and advanced web hacking, for example.
Overall, it was a fun certification that provides a solid foundation for preparing for more advanced certifications in the future.
The only thing I would improve is allowing candidates to use their own Parrot OS or Kali Linux environment during the exam instead of the Guacamole environment. That would be my only criticism.
I'm sharing my CTF notes from Notion. They're written in Spanish (I haven't translated them into English yet, sorry about that), but you can use Google Translate and they should still be understandable, my Linux and VM's is in English 😅.
Greetings, and good luck to everyone!
