About The Basics: EC-Council CEH
Syllabus
Network protocol fundamentals
Course - 00:15:00
In this video, we break down the differences between TCP, UDP and ICMP. We also dig into how data is moved across these protocols. You will learn how to exploit these protocols throughout the course, so it's important understand how they work.
Vulnerability analysis
Course - 00:26:00
This is an in-depth breakdown of different kinds of vulnerability scans and assessments. You will learn how these all work and how they are presented on the exam.
Hacking web servers
Course - 00:08:00
This course will give a good solid view of what you will need to know about hacking web servers or the CEH exam. It is also good information for checking the security of web servers in the real world.
Social engineering
Course - 00:25:00
In this course, you will first learn what social engineering is at a high level. After that, you will see an exciting demonstration on the technical back end of social engineering attacks.
Password cracking
Course - 00:08:00
Learn how to crack passwords using John The Ripper, Hydra and others. This is an important objective for the CEH exam, as well as an important post-exploitation activity.
Network intrusion detection
Course - 00:20:00
This course goes into detail about intrusion detection in general. You will take a deep dive into Snort and how to configure it to detect intrusions. This demonstration includes writing a custom rule.
Covert channels and exfiltration
Course - 00:14:00
In this course, you will see a detailed demonstration of the difference between encrypted and non-encrypted threat actor communications. You will also see a unique covert channel tool in use as it uses ICMP packets to covertly deliver an encryption key to malware.
Hacking wireless networks
Course - 00:14:00
In this course, we get into Evil Twin attacks, Karma and other tools. This course also covers Bluetooth attacks and other objectives for the CEH exam.
Cloud computing
Course - 00:19:00
In this course, we cover cloud topics such as the different service models and cloud-specific attack vectors. This course also introduces the learner to containers.
IoT and OT hacking
Course - 00:19:00
In this course, the learner will learn about different IoT technologies and associated vulnerabilities. The learner is also introduced to real-world IoT attacks and how they impacted the affected organizations.
Applied python
Course - 00:07:00
In this course, we introduce Python by using it to cover string slicing. This is helpful for CEH and heavily tested on the Pentest+ exam.
Recon and footprinting
Course - 00:34:00
This course dives into recon and footprinting activities. You will see common tools like Maltego being used to automate some of the information gathering. There are also deep dives into DNS recon and enumeration of DNS.
Network discovery and recon
Course - 00:57:00
This course takes you under the hood of Nmap. You'll also learn network discovery concepts, as well as being stealthy while doing port scanning. Jump right in to see real-world demonstrations of Nmap.
Exploitation
Course - 00:40:00
In this course, you will see exploitation fundamentals and an exploit written from scratch. You will get a very deep understanding of the exploit development process from system mapping to fuzzing and up to a full working exploit.
Malware, Trojans and backdoors
Course - 00:16:00
This course will cover malware you can expect to see on the CEH exam.
Web application hacking
Course - 00:43:00
This course will prepare you to tackle some of the web application topics you may see on the CEH exam. It is also a good introduction to the demonstration courses on SQL injection, XSS, and watering-hole attacks.
Network-based attack
Course - 00:39:00
In this course, we will cover ARP poisoning, man-in-the-middle, sniffing and other advanced network attack techniques. These demonstrations will prepare you to carry out these types of attacks in the real world.
