Certified Ethical Hacker |
A Certified Ethical Hacker
is a skilled professional who understands and knows how to look for weaknesses
and different vulnerabilities within an environment you utilize. These types of
hacking skills in a lawful manner so you know how to be a malicious hacker. But
you go through this process so that you can be an ethical hacker. If you know
how to be a malicious hacker you will know how to hack things you know how to be
malicious but you use all those skills and the knowledge that you know about
hacking to help environments to help secure things that's what a Certified
Ethical Hacker
So for the CEH certification there is a
prerequisite you either have to have two years of work experience in the
information security field or you could take the official training through EC-Council
and that would qualify you to actually take the CEH exam. So two years
experience or go through the official training. There is a price difference in
the two, based on which path you go down. If you don't go through the official
training, it does cost more money .There are two different CEH exams. Let's get
into the regular CEH exam. It's a four hour exam, there's a 125 questions, the
cost is going to range anywhere between like nine hundred and eleven hundred
dollars. Again that's based on whether you take their certified training or you
have the experience to go ahead and take that certification test on your own .
There may be other discounts and things out there that you could find so that
price will fluctuate a little bit. There's also a 100 dollar application fee
that you have to pay no matter what so be aware of that as well. The validity
of this exam is three years meaning once you are CEH certified that certification is valid for
only three years. The CEH practical exam this is a six hour exam and it has 20
challenges.
