Frequently asked
How much does PJPT cost?
$199 USD with a free retake included. Training materials included for 12 months.
PJPT vs eJPT — which is better for beginners?
Both are solid entry-level options. PJPT is purely practical (no MCQ) and focuses on Active Directory. eJPT is auto-graded and cheaper but uses a flag-capture format. PJPT better mirrors real pentest work.
