RE: Mile2 Training (Certifications)

["Russell Butturini" <rbutturini () tcstech com>]

If memory serves, the stipulation is that you must either take the
course, or have two years of related experience in security work.  If
you don't take the course, you must have a signed letter from your
supervisor on company letterhead stating that you have completed this
work, describe your daily tasks, etc.  

I tried to take this exam, but after faxing in my paperwork, never heard
back from the company and have had no luck contacting them; At least I
didn't pay for it!  Some other forums I've read have stated their
reputation is sketchy at best.  

I just completed the new Offensive Security course on Backtrack, and am
taking the exam Saturday.  It is an excellent course that teaches you
not just about backtrack but lots of great penetration testing and
security auditing concepts.  The final exam is you connected to a lab
via VPN and required to complete various tasks against the other
machines.  I definitely like this hands on approach!

No, I am sure in Europe you MUST take the CEH course to sit for the CEH 
exam (I have heard this from CEH instructors and have just searched and 
found it at Wikipedia: 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Certified_Ethical_Hacker.  This is NOT true
of 
the OPST or OPSA.  In France you can sit for just the exam by contacting

Dreamlab Technologies: www.dreamlab.net.

Sincerely,
-pete.
