Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH v13 AI)

Module 01: Introduction to Ethical Hacking
Provides the foundation of ethical hacking and information security, including core principles, legal issues, common attack methodologies, ethical hacking frameworks, and relevant compliance standards.

Module 02: Footprinting and Reconnaissance
Covers techniques and tools used for gathering preliminary information about a target — a critical first step in the ethical hacking process.

Module 03: Scanning Networks
Explains how to use network scanning methods to discover hosts, open ports, and services — and how attackers leverage these techniques.

Module 04: Enumeration
Details active information gathering methods used to enumerate network resources, user accounts, shares, and vulnerabilities.

Module 05: Vulnerability Analysis
Teaches how to identify security weaknesses in systems and networks using vulnerability assessment tools and methodologies.

Module 06: System Hacking
Covers system takeover techniques — including password attacks, privilege escalation, footprint clean‑up, and covering tracks.

Module 07: Malware Threats
Introduces various types of malware (e.g., Trojans, viruses, worms, fileless malware), malware analysis techniques, and countermeasures.

Module 08: Sniffing
Explains packet sniffing attacks, wiretapping, MAC flooding, ARP poisoning, and how to detect and defend against sniffing techniques.

Module 09: Social Engineering
Outlines manipulation techniques that target human psychology, including phishing, impersonation, and insider threats — with prevention strategies.

Module 10: Denial-of-Service
Covers DoS and DDoS attack methods, exploitation tools, and defense strategies to mitigate service disruption risks.

Module 11: Session Hijacking
Focuses on methods attackers use to steal or manipulate session tokens and how to detect and prevent session takeover.

Module 12: Evading IDS, Firewalls, and Honeypots
Teaches techniques used by attackers to bypass perimeter defenses, intrusion detection systems (IDS), firewalls, and honeypot traps — and how to strengthen defenses.

Module 13: Hacking Web Servers
Examines common web server vulnerabilities, exploitation methods, and countermeasures to protect web infrastructure.

Module 14: Hacking Web Applications
Provides insight into attacking web applications — including attack vectors, exploitation techniques, and secure coding practices.

Module 15: SQL Injection
Focuses on SQL injection attack mechanics, detection, and remediation approaches to secure database‑driven applications.

Module 16: Hacking Wireless Networks
Details wireless network vulnerabilities, encryption weaknesses, attack methodologies, and defense tactics to secure wireless communications.

Module 17: Hacking Mobile Platforms
Covers mobile threat vectors, including Android and iOS exploitation, mobile device management security, and platform‑specific attack tools.

Module 18: IoT and OT Hacking
Explores threats and attack techniques targeting Internet of Things (IoT) and Operational Technology (OT) devices, as well as appropriate defensive controls.

Module 19: Cloud Computing
Introduces cloud architecture threats and security strategies, including attacks on cloud services, containers, and secure cloud configurations.

Module 20: Cryptography
Covers encryption algorithms, cryptographic tools, public-key infrastructure (PKI), secure communications, and common cryptanalysis techniques.
