Certification Prep

OSWP

Passed

Offensive Security Wireless Professional

A focused three-week wireless security prep block using the OffSec course material and the WiFiChallenge Lab course.

Study Time

Three weeks of focused study

Difficulty

5/10

Status

Passed first attempt, April 2026

Preparation Approach

Worked through the OffSec course material first to establish the core wireless attack flow.

Completed the full WiFiChallenge Lab course for additional hands-on repetition.

Used the paid WiFiChallenge course to get more structured practice before the exam.

Kept the prep window short and focused so the commands and workflow stayed fresh.

Lessons

Hands-on repetition made the exam feel manageable.

A compact study window worked well for retaining wireless-specific details.

The course and lab combination was enough to feel prepared without overextending the timeline.
