This 40 hour course offers a comprehensive guide for ethical hacking. An ethical hacker is defined as someone who uses the same methods as criminal attackers use to exploit vulnerabilities in a network accessible to them. The difference is that an ethical hacker performs these “attacks” in order to document whether a network can be breached by known vulnerabilities in order to mitigate the attack vector they expose.
