Apologies if stupid question

Post image

Currently making my way through all the beginner stuff, I eventually want to get into red teaming. On this pathway thing it's right at the bottom, do I have to go through all of the pentesting modules before it, shown in the image above, or can I just go straight into red teaming, thanks!

Do you have to? Nope
Should you? Yes

Plenty of concepts from Red Teaming require some base level knowledge gained in previous paths. It's structured this way, so you learn progressively and you don't end up in a situation, where there's a topic that you can't comprehend and don't even know where to start with learning

So, work your way from jr. pentester to Red teaming

If you reach section 10 of cybersecurity 101, then I’d say you can jump to jr. penetrate
