[kilaj1]

Actually from what I've disscused with the folks at EC-Council they said they require proof of your experience because they want to ensure that you have sufficent knowledge of the cource material...this is from the guy that actually collects the faxes and approves them

This training will be commencing on September 24th-28th 2007.

CERTIFIED ETHICAL HACKER
(CEH)

Why CEH?

The goal of the Ethical Hacker is to help the organization take preemptive measures against malicious attacks by attacking the system himself; all the while staying within legal limits. This philosophy stems from the proven practice of trying to catch a thief, by thinking like a thief.

To ensure that organizations have adequately protected their information assets, they must adopt the approach of 'defense in depth'. In other words, they must penetrate their networks and assess the security posture for vulnerabilities and exposure.

The Ethical Hacker is an individual who is usually employed with the organization and who can be trusted to undertake an attempt to penetrate networks and/or computer systems using the same methods as a Hacker. Hacking is a felony in the United States and most other countries. When it is done by request and under a contract between an Ethical Hacker and an organization, it is legal. The most important point is that an Ethical Hacker has authorization to probe the target.

Why Get Certified?

The CEH Program certifies individuals in the specific network security discipline of Ethical Hacking from a vendor-neutral perspective. The Certified Ethical Hacker certification will fortify the application knowledge of security officers, auditors, security professionals, site administrators, and anyone who is concerned about the integrity of the network infrastructure.

Benefits of Certification to the Professional

A Certified Ethical Hacker is a skilled professional who understands and knows how to look for the weaknesses and vulnerabilities in target systems and uses the same knowledge and tools as a malicious hacker.

PREREQUISITES

• 2 years professional experience in information security
• Working Knowledge of TCP/IP and Linux/Windows 2000
• Students must work for a legitimate organization, and be sponsored by this organization.

2. Do I have to recertify?
