We provide 100% legal, original licenses of Burp Suite Professional, Nessus Professional, Cobalt Strike, Metasploit Pro, and more to every student throughout the course. This single factor alone makes our students stand out and get hired faster than anyone else in India — because companies trust professionals who respect licensing from day one.
