What is it CEH(Certified Ethical Hacker). Let's talk about it today. Hey guys! what's going on this is Sagar Panta with IT career questions and today we are talking about the CEH which is the Certified Ethical Hacker. It's a certification that you can get from EC-Council. So, let's go into some of the details about it. So, we could see if it's something that is interesting to you. 

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.
