Learn How to Become a Certified Ethical Hacker

The Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) Course teaches learners about the essentials of ethical hacking, the techniques used by cybercriminals to hack organisations and how businesses can be protected from these attacks. The course is suitable for those wanting to learn about this subject and those aiming towards the EC-Council examination.

An ethical hacker understands how to follow techniques that attackers would normally use. Just running scans using automated tools is insufficient, because as good as security scanners may be, they will identify false positives. Additionally, they can also miss a lot of vulnerabilities for a variety of reasons, including the fact that the vulnerability or attack may not be known yet.

CEH is a certification that recognizes the importance of identifying security issues to get them remediated and can help those working in companies to protect themselves against attacks, by getting there before the attackers do.

The CEH Syllabus covers the 5 stages of ethical hacking:

  • Reconnaissance
  • Scanning
  • Gaining Access
  • Maintaining Access
  • Covering Tracks

The Certified Ethical Hacker exam validates that those holding the certification understands the broad range of subject matter that is required for someone to be an effective ethical hacker.

Prerequisites

Candidates for the CEH exam must be at least 18 years old. The subject matter is very technical and is not a field in which you can get by with theoretical knowledge only. You will need to have had experience with the methods and tools that are covered within the subject matter.

Learners should have a strong background in IT or have previously been in a job related to network security for 2 years and possess a familiarity with Linux or Unix and a strong working knowledge of TCP/IP and Windows Server. Coding experience is also useful.

Please Note: The CEH exam requires learners to meet the below requirements which are set and determined by EC-Council.

Learners can apply for the CEH Exam with EC-Council if:

  • You already hold a previous version of the CEH certification (1-7). The CEH certification is ANSI certified now, but early versions of the exam were available before the certification. Anyone who wants to take the ANSI-accredited certification who has the early version of the CEH certification can take the exam.
  • You have a minimum of two years related work experience. Anyone who has the required experience will have to pay a nonrefundable application fee of $100.00 to EC-Council.
  • You have completed training directly with EC-Council.
Course Duration & Online Support

You can register at any time and have 12 months access to the course from enrolment. The course is designed as a self-study course, but if you have any problems you can email our support email service.

As this is a self-study course, how quickly it takes to complete will depend on the learner and the amount of time they have available to study.

Assessment

The Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) Examination is a challenging qualification to complete and consists of a 125-question multiple-choice questons. Candidates have four hours to complete the exam. 

About EC-Council & Certified Ethical Hacker Exams

On successful completion of the course you can apply for the EC-Counil's Certified Ethical Hacker examination. The exam can be taken through the ECC Exam Center or at a Pearson VUE testing centre.

Please Note: Self-study students must apply to EC-Council to determine exam eligibility. Successful applicants can then purchase an exam voucher directly through EC-Council at a cost of $950.00 (payments are required to be made in USD). It will cost you an extra $100.00 to provide your moderator. The coupon you'll need to take at a Pearson VUE testing facility will cost $1,199.00. EC-Council may change their eligibility, pricing, or exam policies so we recommend that interested candidates keep checking for updates at the EC-Council website.

Should you want to progress further, you can also aim towards the CEH Practical exam. For this exam you must perform an actual penetration test and write a report at the end of it. This demonstrates that in addition to knowing the body of material covered by the exam, you can put that knowledge to use in a practical way. You will be expected to know how to compromise systems and identify vulnerabilities.

About EC-Council:

The International Council of Electronic Commerce Consultants (EC-Council) was created shortly after the airplane attacks against the United States on September 11, 2001 when the founder, Jay Bavisi, wondered what would happen if the perpetrators of the attack decided to move from the kinetic world to the digital world. The EC-Council is now considered to be one of the largest IT certifying bodies in the world and operates in 145 countries and over 200,000 people have since been certified.
