EC-Council Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH v11)

1.    Course Overview

A Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) is a skilled professional who understands and knows how to look for weaknesses and vulnerabilities in target systems. A Ethical Hacker uses the same knowledge and tools as a malicious hacker, but in a lawful and legitimate manner to assess the security posture of a target system(s). The CEH credential certifies individuals in the specific network security discipline of Ethical Hacking from a vendor-neutral perspective.

CEH provides an in-depth understanding of ethical hacking phases, various attack vectors, and preventative countermeasures. It will teach you how hackers think and act maliciously so that you will be better positioned to set up your security infrastructure and defend future attacks. Understanding system weaknesses and vulnerabilities help organizations strengthen their system security controls to minimize the risk of an incident.

CEH was built to incorporate a hands-on environment and systematic process across every ethical hacking domain and methodology, giving you the opportunity to work towards proving the required knowledge and skills needed to perform the job of an ethical hacker. You will be exposed to an entirely different posture towards the responsibilities and measures required to be secure.

2.    Course Duration

10 Days ( 40 Hours )

3.    Target Audience

The Certified Ethical Hacking training course will significantly benefit security officers, auditors, security professionals, site administrators, and anyone who is concerned about the integrity of the network infrastructure.

4.    During this course you should learn:

• 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, Virus, worms, etc.), system auditing for malware attacks, malware analysis, and countermeasures.
• Packet sniffing techniques to discover network vulnerabilities and countermeasures to defend sniffing.
• Social engineering techniques and how to identify theft attacks to audit humanlevel vulnerabilities and suggest social engineering countermeasures.
• DoS/DDoS attack techniques and tools to audit a target and DoS/DDoS countermeasures.
• Session hijacking techniques to discover network-level session management, authentication/authorization, cryptographic weaknesses, and countermeasures.
• Web server attacks and a comprehensive attack methodology to audit vulnerabilities in web server infrastructure, and countermeasures.
• Web application attacks and comprehensive web application hacking methodology to audit vulnerabilities in web applications, and countermeasures.
