Hi everyone,

I’ve recently started preparing for OSWE and would appreciate some guidance from those who’ve gone through it.

I have 2 years of experience as a software engineer, mainly focused on backend development with an emphasis on secure coding practices. About a year ago, I transitioned into the security domain and have been working on Web VAPT, API VAPT, and source code reviews.

I recently cleared CEH(just to get some security domain certificate) and am now planning a structured 8-month preparation for OSWE, aiming to take the exam around December 2026.

I’d love advice on:

Where to start with preparation
Recommended labs/practice platforms
Useful resources or articles
How to structure my study plan

Thanks in advance!
