FAQs

What is Ethical Hacking?

Ethical Hackers, also known as Penetration Testers or Pen Testers, are employed to conduct penetration tests – controlled hacks – on businesses to test systems and find vulnerabilities.

Unlike ‘Black-Hat’ Hackers, Ethical Hackers are security professionals able to provide the knowledge and skills needed to fix flaws before they can be exploited. Businesses that hire Ethical Hackers get specialist insights from the perspective of an intruder. With this knowledge, businesses can fix vulnerabilities and boost their cyber defences.

Why is CEH certification important for Ethical Hackers?

CEH is a valuable credential for anyone pursuing a career in Ethical Hacking or Cyber Security. Here are seven reasons why it is important:

CEH is widely recognized by employers and is considered a benchmark for hiring Ethical Hackers. It validates your skills and knowledge, making you a more competitive candidate in the job market.
CEH covers a comprehensive knowledge base including various hacking techniques, tools, and methodologies. This knowledge base helps ethical hackers understand the mindset and tactics of malicious hackers and defend their companies against attacks.
CEH helps you develop a thorough legal and ethical understanding of Cyber Security. Certified professionals are trained to perform hacking activities in a lawful and ethical manner, ensuring that they understand the boundaries and responsibilities associated with their work.
CEH helps you develop hands-on hacking experience in a controlled environment. This practical exposure is crucial for ethical hackers to develop real-world skills and apply theoretical knowledge in a practical setting.
Being CEH certified can lead to higher-paying jobs and better Cyber Security career opportunities. It can also serve as a stepping stone to more specialized certifications and roles, such as Penetration Testing (Pen Testing) or Cyber Security Management.
The CEH curriculum is regularly updated to reflect the latest Cyber Security threats and trends. By taking this course, you will become aware of the most current attack vectors and defense mechanisms and stay ahead of potential security breaches.
CEH helps your employer fulfil compliance and regulatory requirements. Many organizations, especially those in regulated industries like finance and healthcare, require CEH-certified professionals to meet compliance and regulatory standards. Holding this certification can help organizations fulfill these requirements and protect sensitive data effectively.

What are the CEH certification requirements?

EC-Council recommend you hold two years’ IT work experience and possess a basic familiarity with Linux or Unix. Examnav also recommend you possess a strong working knowledge of TCP/IP and Windows Server.

If you attend Examnav’s course, or any other official training programme, you will not be required to go through EC-Council’s application process. However, if you wish to attempt the exam without training, you must first be approved through the eligibility application process.
