NOTE:
- CEH is not the study of hacking or hacking tools, but it
provides the candidate deeper knowledge that how the
hackers do exploit the networks, so that a security
professional can better understand the hackers mind to
prevent hacking and securing the networks. A variety of
hacking tools are demonstrated in the lab for proof of
concepts only.
- There are tons of hacking tools available in market for
achieving different hacking and anti-hacking goals; only few
of tools will be practice during the CEH training.
Pre-Requisites.
The CEH candidates should possess good knowledge of computer
networks, preferably as following
- In-depth knowledge of TCP/IP
- MCSA/MCSE level knowledge is preferable
Basics of Linux OS is a plus advantage
