Certified Ethical Hacker | CEH Certification
The Certified Ethical Hacker (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 so you will be better positioned to set up your security infrastructure and defend against attacks. By providing an understanding of system weaknesses and vulnerabilities, the CEH course helps students learn to protect their organizations and strengthen their security controls in order to minimize the risk of a malicious attack.
CEH was built to incorporate a hands-on environment and systematic process across each ethical hacking domain and methodology, giving you the opportunity to work toward proving the required knowledge and skills needed to achieve the CEH credential and perform the job of an ethical hacker.
Now in its 12th version, CEH continues to evolve with the latest operating systems, tools, tactics, exploits, and technologies.

The CEH (Practical) is a 6-hour practical exam created by subject matter experts in the ethical hacking industry. The exam tests skills and abilities in a timed environment across major operating systems, databases, and networks.

About the Certified Ethical Hacker Master
To earn the CEH Master certification, you must pass the CEH Practical exam. The CEH Practical Exam was designed to give students a chance to prove they can execute the principals taught in the CEH course. The practical exam requires you to demonstrate the application of ethical hacking techniques such as threat vector identification, network scanning, OS detection, vulnerability analysis, system hacking, and more.
The CEH Practical does not contain simulations. Rather, you will be challenging a live range which was designed to mimic a corporate network through the use of live virtual machines, networks, and applications.
Successfully navigating and completing the challenges found in the CEH (Practical) Exam is the next step after attaining the Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) certification. Successfully passing both the CEH exam and the CEH Practical will earn you the additional certification of CEH Master.
CEH Master Credential Holders are proven to be able to:
- Demonstrate the understanding of attack vectors
- Perform network scanning to identify live and vulnerable machines in a network.
- Perform OS banner grabbing, service, and user enumeration.
- Perform system hacking, steganography, steganalysis attacks, and cover tracks.
- Identify and use viruses, computer worms, and malware to exploit systems.
- Perform packet sniffing.
- Conduct a variety of web server and web application attacks including directory traversal, parameter tampering, XSS, etc.
- Perform SQL injection attacks.
