EC-Council training: learn to think like an attacker
To secure an organisation, you need to know how an attacker works. EC-Council is the organisation behind Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH), one of the best-known certifications in cybersecurity. The trainings are practical: you work with the same tools and techniques hackers use, in a safe practice environment.
At OEM you find the full EC-Council range. From an Essentials training as a first introduction to expert certifications in penetration testing, forensics and security management. Online, at your own pace.

Frequently asked questions about EC-Council
Which EC-Council training should I start with?
Without security experience: Ethical Hacking Essentials or Network Defense Essentials. With IT experience: go straight to CEH.
Is ethical hacking legal?
Yes, as long as you only test systems for which you have written permission. That is exactly what you learn in CEH: finding and reporting vulnerabilities within agreed boundaries.
What is the difference between CEH and CPENT?
CEH teaches you the techniques and tools. CPENT is the next step: a practical exam in which you carry out a complete penetration test on your own.
Can I ask a question outside office hours?
Yes. Sanne, our AI assistant, is available 24/7 via the chat in the bottom right.
