    Maybe he has a cert from EC-Council

    There may be others that also issue the certification, but I earned mine from the EC Council. Web site is at http://www.eccouncil.org/.

  3. Re:Institute To Blow Smoke Into Uncomfortable Plac by pmc · · Score: 2, Informative · on Hacker Boot Camp

    While "Institute of Certified E-Commerce Consultants" has a nice ring to it, it's a little ambiguous.

    The submitter has put in the wrong website - The CEH site is at http://www.eccouncil.org/CEH.htm

    It is a penetration testing certification for people who can't do penetration testing.

  4. ICECC's 'Ethical Hacker Certification.' by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0 · on Hacker Boot Camp

    I don't know anything about these guys (the cert mentioned in the post not even on the site). http://www.icecc.com/ But it's not the same as: http://www.eccouncil.org/CEH.htm And can be had for about 2k less at other training places. I'm always amazed at the hostile reactions to the name of this cert. Would it make any feel better if it was called Certified Ethical Pen-Tester? Cause that's what it really is, learning the methodology for pen-testing, which like everything else *could* be learned for free, but hey thrash away on your keyboard in outrage if it makes you feel better.

  5. Re:What are the entry requirements? by qw(name) · · Score: 2, Informative · on Hacker Boot Camp

    Instead of going with that company I would recommend either EC-Council or Vigilar/IntenseSchools for your CEH training needs.

    I attended Vigilar's CISSP Boot Camp (Larry Greenblatt was the instructor) and had a very good experience. Passed the test the first time. They strictly adhere to the Code of Ethics of the various certification organizations and their NDAs. They will not tell you what's on the test like certain MS training camps.

  6. Screw the $4300 by tachyon13 · · Score: 1 · on Hacker Boot Camp

    The only reason why you would spend this amount of money to obtain a cert. is because you are not qualified/knowledgable enough pass it in the first place.

    If you really knew what you were doing, you would pay the $250 to take the test (http://www.eccouncil.org/312-50.htm) and be able to pass either on your own accord, or with the help of books or freely available study guides.

    Anything more than a few hours of your time and some decently written books is a waste of money.

  7. Certs like this have been around for a while now. by Sielle · · Score: 2, Interesting · on School Teaches 'Ethical Hacking'

    I remember when the CEH first came out. They may work as a simple start, but they shouldn't be considered a stoping point to learning.
