CCST & Corelan to Bring Exploit Dev Certification

Empowering Cyber Defenders through World-Class Exploit Development Training and Certification

The Center for Cyber Security Training (CCST) is proud to announce a strategic partnership with Corelan, the internationally recognized leader in exploit development training, at this year’s TechNet 2025 Conference. This partnership represents a major milestone in CCST’s mission to deliver elite cybersecurity education to government and enterprise workforce worldwide.

As part of this collaboration, Corelan Founder Peter Van Eeckhoutte and the CCST team are working together to develop an official certification for exploit development, a first-of-its-kind credential aimed at validating hands-on skills in modern exploit development and vulnerability research.

“Corelan has set the global standard for exploit development for over a decade. Partnering with Peter to release this certification allows us to bring even more value to students, employers, and mission-critical cyber teams,” said Joshua Tyner, Co-Founder and COO of the Center for Cyber Security Training.

The certification, currently in development, will align with Corelan’s rigorous technical standards and will be rolled out to select cohorts starting later this year. Attendees at TechNet 2025 can visit the CCST booth for early details on course dates, certification details, and partnership opportunities.
