    Hi All,

    Just wondering does anyone know of any vulnerability testing and or management certifications?

    I know that there is PenTest+ and CEH, but that covers more Penetration Testing, which is something that I am not currently doing. Besides I failed the CEH by 1 or 2 questions, and the re-sit is not financial viable.

    For vulnerability testing, I am currently using Greenbone OpenVAS, but am willing to try other affordable solutions (free is good). So if you have any recommendations on that, pls do share :)

    Not sure if they still do it, but years ago Qualys did a free one day course and certification which if you completed you got the QualysGuard Certified Specialist certification.

    Never liked SANS incredibly expensive and when they expire you have to pay for an expensive exam again or another expensive certification. Also, all open book exams which I am not a fan of.
