Why study this course

Learn the fundamentals of modern 32-bit exploit development with this intermediate-level Windows User Mode Exploit Development (EXP-301) course, designed for those who want to learn about exploit development skills.

EXP-301 expands on many of the concepts covered in CTP, and prepares students to take on AWE and the OSEE. EXP-301 is an intermediate course that teaches the skills necessary to bypass DEP and ASLR security mitigations, create advanced custom ROP chains, reverse-engineer a network protocol and even create read and write primitives by exploiting format string specifiers.

Students who complete the course and pass the exam earn the OffSec Exploit Developer (OSED) certification, demonstrating their ability to create custom exploits.

The OSED is one of three certifications making up the OSCE³ certification, along with the OSWE for web application security and the OSEP for advanced penetration testing.

This self-paced course includes:

15+ hours of video
600+ page course guide
Active student forums
Access to virtual lab environment
OSED exam voucher
