  • Registration includes 6 months access to iLabs—dynamic access to a host of Virtual Machines preconfigured with vulnerabilities, exploits, tools, and scripts—with over 140 different exercises!

ALPI's accredited CEH course gives you the advanced hacking tools and techniques used by hackers and information security professionals alike to break into an organization.

Why CEH? A Certified Ethical Hacker is a skilled professional who understands and knows how to look for weaknesses and vulnerabilities in target systems and uses the same knowledge and tools as a malicious hacker, but in a lawful and legitimate manner to assess the security posture of a target system(s). The CEH credential certifies individuals in the specific network security discipline of Ethical Hacking from a vendor-neutral perspective.

By the end of this course, an attendee should be able to:

  • Successfully prepare for the Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) Certification Exam.
  • Apply countermeasures to secure your system against threats.
  • Test system security and data access using real-world hacking techniques.
  • Employ complex tools to identify and analyze your company's risks and weaknesses.
  • Find vulnerabilities in a network infrastructure.
This course includes the certification exam in order to attain the CEH Certification. See prerequisites, below.
