A lot of people are missing the point here... Penetration testing is a "good idea", but how do you know who (a) has the skill, and (b) isn't going to just backdoor everything? This cert is intended to prove you have the technical know-how to at least know how to spell nmap. As for the ethics portion, it does eventually come down to trust... Where I work (as the hacker, BTW), lots of people want to have my job. But those who I'd trust don't have the skill, and those who have the skill are not really trustworthy, and I don't have time to train someone else. So, this cert - in conjunction with a CISSP - would be helpful if we were hiring someone (which we aren't, so don't bother). |

The comments regarding the value of a pen testers certification to his customer is very valid. Ethical hacking is notorius for being a "dark art" and many folk buy security assessments without asking whether the tester is capable of delivering a product that is to an acceptable standard. The question we should be asking is "How trustworthy is EC-Council as a certification body?" - the last thing a customer needs is a certified tester who is the same as the proverbial "paper MCSE" |

net bus? this is a new way to hack to me. You might been of thinking on NetBios. Im going for that cert, the only problem is, for how long is this cert valid? Hacking changes everyday, new exploits, new version of servers and stuff. What about EC-Council? is it trustable as a company to give certifications? Also lots of technics are obsolete. Personal experience. |

CEH seems to be a good entry point to the industry providing good -basic- skills and combined with the CISSP it might be a plus on your CV. Its not about hacking anyways, its about cracking. And its not about making you a -hacker- more than it is about making you aware and giving you solid basic skills. Its all about attitude and competence anyways. |
