2. Introduction
• Ethical hacking is the process of testing the security of a system
or network by simulating an attack with the permission of the
owner12.
• Ethical hackers help organizations identify and fix
vulnerabilities, prevent data breaches, and comply with
regulations12.
• To become a certified ethical hacker (CEH), you need to have a
basic knowledge of networking, operating systems, and security
concepts, and pass the CEH exam and the CEH practical
exam31.
• The CEH course will teach you how to think and act like a
hacker, and how to use various tools and techniques to perform

3. Course Overview
• The CEH course covers 20 modules and 5 phases of ethical
hacking: reconnaissance, scanning, gaining access, maintaining
access, and covering your tracks31.
• The course will teach you how to use over 3,500 hacking tools, such
as Nmap, Metasploit, Burp Suite, Wireshark, etc., to perform various
types of attacks on different systems and platforms31.
• The course will prepare you for the CEH certification exam, which is
a multiple-choice test that assesses your knowledge of ethical
hacking domains and methodologies31.
• The course will also prepare you for the CEH practical exam, which
is a hands-on test that assesses your skills and abilities to perform
ethical hacking tasks in a simulated environment31.

4. Course Highlights
• The course provides a hands-on learning experience with over 220 challenge-based labs and the
CyberQ platform, which is a cloud-based cyber range that simulates real-world scenarios31.
• The course also engages you with real-world ethical hacking assignments and global challenges
with C|EH Engage, which is a program that allows you to hack a real organization with their consent
and get feedback from experts31.
• The course will show you some examples of how to perform common attacks such as:
• Footprinting: gathering information about a target using passive or active methods31.
• Scanning: discovering open ports, services, and vulnerabilities on a target using tools like Nmap or Nessus31.
• Enumeration: extracting more information about a target’s network resources, users, groups, etc., using tools like
SNMP or NetBIOS31.
• Vulnerability analysis: identifying and prioritizing the weaknesses and risks on a target using tools like OpenVAS
or Nikto31.
• System hacking: exploiting the vulnerabilities on a target to gain access, escalate privileges, execute commands,
etc., using tools like Metasploit or Hydra31.
• Malware threats: creating and deploying malicious software such as viruses, worms, trojans, ransomware, etc.,
using tools like Veil-Evasion or Shellter31.
• Sniffing: capturing and analyzing network traffic using tools like Wireshark or Ettercap31.
• Social engineering: manipulating human behavior to obtain information or access using techniques like phishing,
baiting, pretexting, etc., using tools like SET or Gophish
