Training Lead Ethical Hacker

Description

The Certified Lead Ethical Hacker course enables participants to develop the necessary skills and knowledge to conduct ethical penetration tests, primarily focused on information systems and networks. In addition to theoretical aspects, the training includes practical labs using a virtual machine.

Why participate in this training?

The increase in security incidents in organizations, whether small or large, has led to a growing demand for ethical hacking. Ethical hacking is an essential tool for protecting assets and ensuring the safety of people and information. Furthermore, ethical hacking certification is gradually becoming a standard for professionals aiming to advance in the field of information security. Obtaining the PECB Certified Lead Ethical Hacker certification demonstrates your ability to legally assess system security and identify vulnerabilities. The course will provide you with knowledge of the latest ethical hacking methods and tools, as well as a methodology to perform penetration tests in compliance with standards and best practices, such as the Penetration Testing Execution Standard (PTES) and the Open Source Security Testing Methodology Manual (OSSTMM). Understanding hackers' strategies will allow you to better address security issues. By the end of this training, you will be able to plan, manage, and execute penetration tests on information security systems. The PECB Certified Lead Ethical Hacker course is focused on applying the acquired knowledge, with lab sessions and practical examples to facilitate the application of theory. The training concludes with a certification exam. If successful, you will be eligible to apply for the title of "PECB Certified Lead Ethical Hacker."
