Certified Ethical Hacker Certification ( CEH v12 )

The Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH v12) program is the most comprehensive & latest ethical hacking course on the globe to help information security professionals grasp the fundamentals of ethical hacking. The hacking course outcome helps you become a professional who systematically attempts to inspect network infrastructures with the consent of its owner to find security vulnerabilities which a malicious hacker could potentially exploit. This hacking course helps you assess the security posture of an organization by identifying vulnerabilities in the network and system infrastructure to determine if unauthorized access is possible. The CEH is the first of a series of 3 comprehensive courses (CEH, ECSA and the APT course) to help a cyber security professional master penetration testing.

Passing Score

In order to maintain the high integrity of our certifications exams, EC-Council Exams are provided in multiple forms (I.e. different question banks). Each form is carefully analyzed through beta testing with an appropriate sample group under the purview of a committee of subject matter experts that ensure that each of our exams not only has academic rigor but also has “real world” applicability. We also have a process to determine the difficulty rating of each question. The individual rating then contributes to an overall “Cut Score” for each exam form. To ensure each form has equal assessment standards, cut scores are set on a “per exam form” basis. Depending on which exam form is challenged, cut scores can range from 60% to 85%.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH v12) course certification, which typically involves five days of training, is also available. Those who complete this certification will learn about the latest cybersecurity threats and develop the practical hacking skills needed to work as an ethical hacker.
 

A certified ethical hacker is a skilled individual who uses the same knowledge and tools as a malicious hacker, but who does so in a lawful and legitimate manner to assess the security risks of a network or system.
 

Hacking is a difficult skill that takes quite a while to develop and is almost impossible to master, but the puzzle of it will captivate you forever.

One of the most in-demand positions in this field is that of an ethical hacker—an IT professional who purposefully penetrates networks and systems to find and fix potential vulnerabilities. If you are looking to put on your “white hat” and infiltrate systems for good, this position can be a great career opportunity.

So, is becoming a white hat hacker worth it? The short answer is a resounding, “yes.” If you are interested in cyber security, the CEH certification is a great investment based on the knowledge you’ll gain alone. Beyond gaining technical know-how, CEH is also a valuable certification for your professional career.

The pricing for CEH examination is based on region. You can find the pricing here https://iclass.eccouncil.org/our-courses/certified-ethical-hacker-ceh/ . For self-study students, you must pay an additional $100 eligibility application fee and submit a record of two years of information security related work experience endorsed by your employer.

Python. The de-facto language for hacking programming, Python is heralded as the best programming language for hacking – and for good reasons so. Ethical hackers often use this dynamic programming language for scripting their on-demand hacking programs on the go.

In order to be considered for the EC-Council CEH exam without attending official hacking training, candidate must have at least 2 years of work experience in the Information Security domain and remit a non-refundable eligibility application fee of USD 100.00 along with their application form.
 

It also depends on how talented you are and how strong your work at it with much determination. Most people who try can obtain a decent skill set in eighteen months to two years if they completely concentrate on it. However, hacking is a vast ocean which takes years to explore its mystery.

The Ethical Hacker will be a client-facing security expert who can figure out how things work, how to break them and how to prevent them from being broken. Most employees are in the office 1-2 days per week outside of working from home or at a client site.

  • Attend our approved Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) Training Course, and.
  • Pass the official CEH exam, which consists of 125 multiple-choice questions, and is taken at any Pearson VUE exam centre.
 

It is fully legal to learn Ethical Hacking training course, until and unless you are authorized to hack any website/System/Server/Computer. DO NOT hack into others computer/phone or any other device without authorization.

For instance, if you have CEH certification from EC-Council, according to EC-Council ECE Policy, you must earn ECE credits in each three years for CEH renewal. Otherwise, your EC-Council certification will expire, and you will have to re-take the certification exam to earn the certification.
 

If a candidate does not successfully pass an EC-Council exam, he/she can purchase ECC Exam centre voucher to retake the exam at a discounted price. If a candidate is not able to pass the exam on the first attempt, no cooling or waiting period is required to attempt the exam for the second time (1st retake).
 

If you choose to attend an officially authorized corresponding hacking training course, you will be able to take the exam online at the end of the course. All other exams are delivered through Prometric and VUE testing centres. The CEH exam consists of 150 questions and the passing score is 70%.
 

One of the most in-demand positions in this field is that of an ethical hacker—an IT professional who purposefully penetrates networks and systems to find and fix potential vulnerabilities. If you are looking to put on your “white hat” and infiltrate systems for good, this position can be a great career opportunity.
 

The Ethical Hacking and Countermeasures course prepares candidates for the CEH exam offered by EC-Council. The course focuses on hacking techniques and technologies from an offensive perspective. This advanced security hacking course is regularly updated to reflect the latest developments in the domain, including new hacking techniques, exploits, automated programs as well as defensive recommendations as outlined by experts in the field. The CEH body of knowledge represents detailed contributions from security experts, academicians, industry practitioners and the security community at large.
 

Hacking techniques represent ways and means by which computer programs can be made to behave in ways they are not meant to. These techniques extend beyond the technology domain and can be applied to test security policies and procedures. Hacking technologies are used to refer to those tools and automated programs that can be used by perpetrators against an organization to incur critical damage. As technology advances, the skills required to execute a hack are much lesser as pre-compiled programs are available to effect havoc with simple point and click.
 

The ANSI accredited Ethical Hacking program is primarily targeted at security professionals who want to acquire a well-rounded body of knowledge to have better opportunities in this field. Acquiring a Certified Ethical Hacking Certification means the candidate has a minimum baseline knowledge of security threats, risks and countermeasures. Organizations can rest assured that they have a candidate who is more than a systems administrator, a security auditor, a hacking tool analyst or a vulnerability tester. The candidate is assured of having both business and technical knowledge.
 

On an average, application processing time would be between 5-10 working days once the verifiers on the application respond to EC-Council’s requests for information.

The CEH (ANSI) exam is an MCQ (Multiple Choice Question) exam. This exam is available at the ECC Exam Centre and the Pearson Vue Centre.
