The following graphic is a simplified diagram of the PWK labs. You will initially connect via VPN into the Student Network and hack your way into additional networks as the course progresses. Once you have completed the course videos, you will have the basic skills required to penetrate most of the vulnerable computers in our lab. Certain machines will require additional research and a great deal of determination in order to compromise them.

Please note that all the machines in your lab range are vulnerable to some type of attack/exploit. There are also several vulnerable machines within this range that act as routers, which lead to additional vulnerable networks.  As you progress through the PWK labs, you will discover various hints to machines throughout the lab environment. These hints will show the different relationships present between the machines that will help with specific attack vectors.
