What is CEH?

CEH (Certified Ethical Hacker) is a certification provided by EC-Council that validates an individual's skills in ethical hacking. It demonstrates their ability to assess the security of computer systems by looking for weaknesses and vulnerabilities, using the same knowledge and tools as malicious hackers, but in a legal and legitimate manner. CEH certified professionals are commonly employed to identify vulnerabilities in systems before they can be exploited by malicious actors, helping organizations improve their security posture through penetration testing, vulnerability assessments, and security audits.
