Ethical Hacker and Countermeasure Expert (EHCE)

Introduction

Cybercrime is rampant. The only way to protect the confidentiality, integrity and privacy of your organization is thorough education and awareness. To beat hackers at their own game, you must think like one.

The definition of an Ethical Hacker is very similar to a Penetration Tester. 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 and techniques as a Hacker.

That is exactly what we teach you in the ethical hacking and countermeasures course. This program covers the entire gamut from penetration techniques to exploits and vulnerabilities and how to actually harden the organization’s defenses. This program is designed to equip you with the skills to protect your organization’s data and network from malicious intruders.

The Ethical Hacking and Countermeasures Expert (EHCE) certification program will immerse participants into an interactive environment where they will be shown how to scan, test, hack and secure their own systems.

Why EHCE?

Many courses have cropped up offering training in so-called “ethical hacking”. But these courses deal with only one half of the security equation. To build highly secure networks, professionals need to be aware of different methods of hacking and at the same time know how to make networks secure from these intrusions using firewalls, UTMs, antivirus, etc. This is the only course which teaches both hacking and countermeasure techniques.

The lab intensive environment gives each participant in-depth knowledge and practical experience with the current essential security systems. Participants will begin by understanding how perimeter defenses work and then be lead into scanning and attacking their own networks, no real network is harmed.

Participants then learn how intruders escalate privileges and what steps can be taken to secure a system. Participants will also learn about Intrusion Detection, Policy Creation, Social Engineering, DDoS Attacks, Buffer Overflows and Virus Creation. When a participant leaves this intensive 5 day class they will have hands on understanding and experience in Ethical Hacking.

The tools and techniques that you will learn are not confined to any particular vendor or platform. The aim of this program is to train the ethical hacker of tomorrow who is equally at ease in protecting the conventional or the latest cutting edge network.

Who is it for?

This course is meant for those professionals who are looking for comprehensive and total knowledge in the network security domain. This training program teaches both hacking and countermeasure techniques and is conducted entirely hands on and real time oriented.

This course will significantly benefit security officers, auditors, security professionals, site administrators, and anyone who is concerned about the integrity of the network infrastructure.

Why be a Ethical Hacking & Countermeasure Expert?
