From Corelan Blogs to Learning from the Source

About ten years ago, I started my journey into Windows vulnerability research through the Corelan blog, still some of the most practical and high-quality material out there. This week, I finally had the chance to learn directly from Peter Van Eeckhoutte at Corelan Consulting bv, and it absolutely delivered. The training goes far beyond theory. It’s deep, hands-on, and focused on real-world exploitation: modern mitigations (ASLR, DEP), ROP chain construction, precise debugging workflows, and the kind of low-level understanding you only get from someone who has spent years actually doing this in practice. Every detail is deliberate, from the methodology to the tooling and thought process. If you’re serious about modern Windows exploitation, whether for research, offensive security, or pushing into advanced exploit development, this is essential training. Huge thanks to Peter for sharing not just knowledge, but mindset.
