XDSv1 is entirely self-paced with interactive slides and videos that you can access online without any limitation – so you’re able to study from home, the office, or anywhere an internet connection is available. You’ll also get lifetime access to both the training material and the most sophisticated virtual lab on the market, Hera Lab.
Our staff of experienced InfoSec professionals have collaborated with several Fortune 500 companies to develop XDS, so you can trust the knowledge gained from this training course is the most practical exploit development material you can learn.
This course covers:
- Techniques professional exploit developers use
- The fundamentals, as well as advanced exploitation techniques
- Software debugging
- Shellcoding
- Both Windows and Linux exploit development
- The methodology on how to identify and fully exploit 0-day vulnerabilities
- Bypassing modern anti-exploit mechanisms
- How to use tools like Immunity Debugger, x32dbg, Mona, Pwntools, GDB, Ropper, etc.
XDSv1, along with its associated certification, eLearnSecurity Certified eXploit Developer (eCXD) qualifies you for 40 CPE and is the perfect step to take if you’re looking to land a job as a pentester, exploit developer, or vulnerability researcher.

Hi, I have new coding / programming knowledge, do you think it will work for me. Thanks
Hi there, good question! It’s up to what you’d like to learn! There is not an official prerequisite class for this course, however we suggest that potential students have the following knowledge before taking XDS:
Solid understanding of Windows & Linux internals
Basic reverse engineering skills
Pentesting basics
Basic Python scripting skills
Basic understanding of x86/x64 assembly and C/C++ language – Covering assembly and C/C++ programming is beyond the scope of the course
Knowledge of fundamental programming concepts such as variables, loops, functions, etc.
When will the webinar for the xdsv1 be uploaded?
We are working on getting the video shared shortly. Thank you for your patience!
Hi, I am currently enrolled on the PTS course and Im particularly interested in coding/exploit dev.
If I consider signing up to the XDS course, would the ARES course be considered the next logical step?
There are several different routes you could take! To continue on the red team path, we suggest WAPTX or PTX. You can also develop your purple team skills with THP or DFP. Hope this helps!
I have a Networking formation and a basic knowledge in programming. With that in mind can I get the course?
Good question! While there are no official prerequisites, we recommend students have a solid understanding of Windows & Linux internals, basic reverse engineering skills, pentesting basics, basic Python scripting skills, basic understanding of x86/x64 assembly and C/C++ language – Covering assembly and C/C++ programming is beyond the scope of the course and knowledge of fundamental programming concepts such as variables, loops, functions, etc.
