The OSWE is OffSec’s Advanced Web Attacks and Exploitation certification, focused on white-box source review and writing working exploits against the code you are handed. It is the most programming-heavy exam OffSec runs. This certification page explains what we offer for OSWE candidates and how our report services are structured.

What do the OSWE report products include?
We list two products for this certification. The OSWE – Full Report is priced at $299.00. The OSWE Report Review & Consultation is priced at $1500.00 and combines a review of your report with a consultation session.
The full report product is aimed at candidates who want a complete written report to study. The review and consultation product is aimed at candidates who already have a report and want it examined, with the findings discussed directly. Both sit alongside the preparation guides and exam resources already listed on this page.
Who are these OSWE products for?
These products are for candidates working toward the OSWE certification who want to see how a report is put together or who want their own report reviewed. Because the exam is programming-heavy, the report reflects the exploits you write against source code you are handed, and studying example material can help you understand the expected structure.
If you are still choosing a path, browse our certifications to compare this vendor with others we cover. If you want to see available materials, our downloads page lists what we offer.
How should you choose between the two products?
- Choose the Full Report at $299.00 if you want a complete report to read and reference while preparing.
- Choose the Report Review & Consultation at $1500.00 if you have a report and want it reviewed with a consultation.
- Read the common mistakes and latest report preparation sections already on this page before deciding.
Neither product promises an exam outcome. They are study and review materials, and results depend on your own preparation and performance.
