Various types of footprinting, footprinting tools, and countermeasures. 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 against sniffing. Social engineering techniques and how to identify theft attacks to audit human-level vulnerabilities and 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, and cryptographic weaknesses and countermeasures.

It will teach you how hackers think and act maliciously so you will be better positioned to setup your security infrastructure and defend against future attacks. An understanding of system weaknesses and vulnerabilities helps 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 each ethical hacking domain and methodology, giving you the opportunity to work towards proving the required knowledge and skills needed to achieve the CEH credential. You will be exposed to an entirely different posture toward the responsibilities and measures required to be secure. Now in its 12th version, CEH continues to evolve with the latest operating systems, tools, tactics, exploits, and technologies.</p></div><div id="course-pills-2"><h3>1 - Introduction to Ethical Hacking</h3> <ul> <li>Information Security Overview</li> <li>Cyber Kill Chain Concepts</li> <li>Hacking Concepts</li> <li>Ethical Hacking Concepts</li> <li>Information Security Controls</li> <li>Information Security Laws and Standards</li> </ul> <h3>2 -

Please note - Competency Training
Our Route to Competency Masterclass - Live Blood Sessions can only be completed in a classroom environment. This is included when you book a classroom option. When booking the virtual classroom option you can choose to add this at time of booking. You will receive a voucher code to enable you to book onto any upcoming dates or locations. For most of our two day course we run our competency training at the end of the second day and therefore you should be able to complete your full training programme with us over two days.

If you are completing your training by virtual classroom please see our list of competency training locations here.

If you would like to "mix and match" your training dates and/or locations then please call our admin team on 01525 713377 who will be more than happy to put a training package together for you on dates and / or locations that suit you.

All courses are accredited and are Skills for Health & WHO compliant.
