Pre-requisite for Course Registration

Network and programming experience as well as knowledge about popular hacking methods are of advantage. For practical exercises, Virtual Box should be already preinstalled on the laptop. Furthermore, the participant should have administrative rights on the host computer for potential configurations. As the majority of the exercises will take place on the Linux command line, experience in this respect is helpful, but not necessary.
