Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH)
A Certified Ethical Hacker professional is a specialist typically working in a red team environment, focused on attacking computer systems and gaining access to networks, applications, databases, and other critical data on secured systems. A CEH recognizes attack strategies, the use of creative attack vectors, and mimics the skills and creativity of malicious hackers. Unlike black hat hackers, Certified Ethical Hackers operate with permission from the system owners and take all precautions to ensure the outcomes remain confidential.
What is new in CEH v11?
- Key issues include plaguing the information security world, ethical hacking, information security controls, laws, and standards.
- Perform footprinting and reconnaissance using the latest footprinting techniques and tools as a critical pre-attack phase required in ethical hacking.
Network scanning techniques and scanning countermeasures. - Enumeration techniques and enumeration countermeasures.
- Vulnerability analysis to identify security loopholes in the target organization’s network, communication infrastructure, and end systems.
- System hacking methodology, steganography, steganalysis attacks, and covering tracks to discover system and network vulnerabilities.
- Different types of malware (Trojan, Viruses, worms, etc.), system auditing for malware attacks, malware analysis, and countermeasures.
- Threats to IoT and OT platforms and learn how to defend IoT and OT devices securely.
- Cryptography ciphers, Public Key Infrastructure (PKI), cryptography attacks, and cryptanalysis tools.
