The EC-Council Certified Encryption Specialist (E|CES) program introduces professionals and students to the field of cryptography. The participants will learn the foundations of modern symmetric and key cryptography including the details of algorithms such as Feistel Networks, DES, and AES. Other topics introduced:
Overview of other algorithms such as Blowfish, Twofish, and Skipjack
Hashing algorithms including MD5, MD6, SHA, Gost, RIPMD 256 and others.
Asymmetric cryptography including thorough descriptions of RSA, Elgamal, Elliptic Curve, and DSA.
Significant concepts such as diffusion, confusion, and Kerkchoff’s principle.

Who Should Attend
Anyone involved in the selection and implementation of VPN’s or digital certificates should attend this course. Without understanding cryptography at some depth, people are limited to following marketing hype. Understanding the actual cryptography allows you to know which one to select. A person successfully completing this course will be able to select the encryption standard that is most beneficial to their organization and understand how to effectively deploy that technology. This course is excellent for ethical hackers and penetration testing professionals as most penetration testing courses skip cryptoanalysis completely. Many penetration testing professionals testing usually don’t attempt to crack cryptography. A basic knowledge of cryptoanalysis is very beneficial to any penetration testing.
In order to maintain the high integrity of our certification 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 78%.
Number of Questions: 50
Required Passing Score:70%
Test Duration: 2 Hours
Test Format: Multiple Choice
Test Delivery: EC-Council Exam Center (ECC EXAM)
Course/Class Duration: 3 days / 20 hours (ECC EXAM)
