If you are interested in pivoting into the RedTeam space, trying to learn the newest TTPs that can be immediately applied in operations, a pentester that just doesn't have the necessary experience with commercial C2s to level-up, or if you are tasked with approving training budgets for your org...you will be hard-pressed to find anything that can remotely hold a candle to ROPS-RT1 and the Rogue Arena.

From the very first day, when the training materials and high quality swag arrived at my door, I instantly knew that I was in for something a bit different than the usual, tired training/certification course format. It instantly felt more akin to an extended in-person training, at one of the bigger conferences, or a college seminar...but without the associated absurd sticker prices. The extremely high-quality training material is presented in every conceivable format, catering to any and every learning style and is coupled with hands-on keys practical applications of key concepts that are driven home in the labs and well thought-out, intentional overarching engagement scenario. I will definitely be putting my team through this training over others on the market, and any candidate holding the associated certification will be shooting right to the top of the resume pile.

I can whole-heartedly say that ROPS-RT1/Rogue Arena sits at the top of my personal training experiences and will continue to recommend enrolling in it to anyone who will listen....or read.

Nick and his team, have put something truly special together here and I believe the saturated infosec training space just got a brand new contender for #1. Do your team, your clients, and yourself a favor and don't sleep on this one.

Rogue Lab's ROPS-1 course is a great Red Team course that, unlike other RT courses, not only discusses OPSec considerations but also requires you to use good tradecraft throughout the course and on the certification exam. ROPS-1 is a fantastic hands-on course for new/intermediate Red Teamers and other security professionals to get a better understanding of Red Team operations!

ROPS-RT1 is a brilliantly led course with a great instructor. The scenario allows students to build on the techniques they learn as they go without ever needing to reset the environment, ensuring they get the maximum value out of their time, and it also tells a fun story. The techniques are taught in a way that makes them easy to understand, so operators of all levels can learn new things. I cannot recommend this course enough!

This class was great. It took the theory behind red-teaming that I had heard before and allowed me to put my hands on the keyboard and master all of the techniques.

The ROPS-RT1 course is a great learning course that teaches, explains, and demonstrates the material. Questions are answered immediately enabling students to understand the material before moving on to the next subject. Also, issues with your hands-on input during labs are quickly resolved with either desk side assistance or with the instructor remoting into your environment which enables students to understand errors and get back on track and continue on with the labs. The pace is continuous, but no student is left behind because the labs are demonstrated live in class for understanding.

Nick's ROPS-RT1 course was in-depth on all of the knowledge and tradecraft a red team operator would need to be successful during assessments. The structure flowed in a sensible way, allowing students to build up their skillsets and challenge themselves from beginning to the end. For those looking to take this course - this is one of the most stimulating trainings I've attended and it brings an immediate value add to any organization.

I embarked on the ROPS-RT1 class with high expectations, and I can confidently say that those expectations were not only met but exceeded beyond measure. This course is nothing short of phenomenal, offering a comprehensive journey into the intricate world of offensive security. One of the most commendable aspects of this class is its emphasis on practical skills. Rather than focusing solely on theoretical concepts, students are given opportunities to hone their abilities through a series of challenging exercises and simulations via Rogue Area. This not only reinforces learning but also instills confidence in one's abilities as a red team practitioner.

Rogue Labs instructor, Nick Downer, went above and beyond to ensure that students receive personalized attention and support throughout the entire duration of the course. Nick's ability to convey the information to both new and seasoned operators, was phenomenal!

In conclusion, if you're looking to elevate your skills in offensive security and embark on a thrilling journey into the world of red teaming, look no further than ROPS-RT1. It's not just a course; it's a transformative experience that will empower you to unleash the warrior within and conquer even the most formidable cybersecurity challenges. I am truly thankful for the opportunity to take this course and to have been taught by one of the finest in the field!

The ROPS-RT1 course was amazing. The content consisted of real-world TTPs, with a heavy emphasis OPSEC. The course was fast paced with lots of hands-on experience with Cobalt Strike and BOFs. Additional stretch labs were provided throughout for those who finished the regular labs. Our team will be implementing his workflow and TTPs into our upcoming assessments immediately.

This course kicked my butt, and I loved every second of it. Nick is a great teacher, really knows his stuff, and was quick to help whenever I had questions. Given the opportunity, I would absolutely take another course from Rogue Labs.
