It is recommended that you have a minimum of 2 years of IT security experience before taking the CEH exam. Beginners can start gaining experience by learning how hacking tools and techniques are used in real world environments. You can find more information here: https://www.eccouncil.org/academia/essentials/.
According to the U.S. Department of Labor, the field of cybersecurity is rapidly growing with projected job opportunity growth of 33%. Globally, there is an insufficient supply of qualified people creating amazing opportunities for CEH in nearly every industry.
If you are interested in taking the CEH certification Examination, you must first meet the eligibility requirements. There are two paths to eligibility:
1. Attend official training through EC-Council's online learning platform, iClass, or through an Authorized Training Center (ATC) such as Edureka. All candidates who attend official training at Edureka and are deemed eligible to attend the training will have direct access to the examination, which can be proctored at the training center, online using EC-Council’s remote proctoring service, or at over 4,500 VUE testing centers worldwide.
2. Eligibility Application – If you have sufficient experience and do not require training in the domains of the exam, you may choose to skip the training and challenge the exam directly. If you do not attend official training, you must apply for exam eligibility at https://cert.eccouncil.org/application-process-eligibility.html. After your application is processed and approved, EC-Council will work directly with you to determine the best delivery method for the exam, and you may then challenge the 4-hour certification exam as scheduled.You can retake the examination as many times as you want. But there is a mandatory 14 days of waiting period before you can retake the exam each time.
Your CEH certification is only valid for 3 years and you have to renew it by earning 120 credits during that period. You have to maintain the CEH certification like other certifications in your domain. Here's the EC-council policy, which outlines the requirements, which is available here: https://cert.eccouncil.org/ece-policy.html
A CEH certified professional is trusted by various Fortune 500 companies such as IBM,
Microsoft, Cisco, and many more. As per, U.S. BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS, 2022, Employment of information security analysts is projected to grow 33 percent from 2020 to 2030, much faster than the average for all occupations. Since the demand is high, Ethical Hacking is one of the most sought after and promising professions at the moment.
