CEH meets the gov't DoD 8570 requirement. It's in the matrix along with CISSP, but it's faster to knock out. So if you're going to do contracting work, then it isn't a bad one to get. Most certifications are simply about having the right ticket to get punched for the HR train anyway. M. On 4/28/12 4:52 AM, Pat Moloney wrote:
Thanks Unfortunately too late bought the books built a lab and have a good chunk of the course read. No stopping now. To be honest it's not the hardest exam going so far but it is at least a start.

Much more useful information and knowledge.

It's worth noting that CEH teaches damn near nothing about ethics, and the name implies that those of us that don't possess it are by definition, unethical. (see Jack's rant on that one). For the most part, it teaches you to be a 'tools regurgitor' - showing you how to do things, but not why they work the way they do. In short, CEH is a great cert to look for on a resume when you''re looking for people that can do particular repeatable work within Infosec - as an indication of creative, critical analysis skills within the field however, much less so. (or basically, if you want a guy to run the companies internal vuln scans, it's great - but I wouldn't hire an incident response guy on the strength of a CEH). _________________________________________________ Pauldotcom mailing list Pauldotcom () mail pauldotcom com <mailto:Pauldotcom () mail pauldotcom com> http://mail.pauldotcom.com/__cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/__pauldotcom <http://mail.pauldotcom.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pauldotcom> Main Web Site: http://pauldotcom.com _______________________________________________ Pauldotcom mailing list Pauldotcom () mail pauldotcom com <mailto:Pauldotcom () mail pauldotcom com> http://mail.pauldotcom.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pauldotcom Main Web Site: http://pauldotcom.com _______________________________________________ Pauldotcom mailing list Pauldotcom () mail pauldotcom com <mailto:Pauldotcom () mail pauldotcom com> http://mail.pauldotcom.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pauldotcom Main Web Site: http://pauldotcom.com_______________________________________________ Pauldotcom mailing list Pauldotcom () mail pauldotcom com http://mail.pauldotcom.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pauldotcom Main Web Site: http://pauldotcom.com
