If you want to stop hackers from invading your network, first you've got to invade their minds.

GlobalNet Training's Combined Certified Ethical Hacking (CEH)™/ Computer Hacking Forensic Investigation (CHFI)™ 7-Day Boot Camp certifies individuals in the specific network security discipline of Ethical Hacking and Computer Forensics, from a vendor-neutral perspective, enabling you to extract the evidence and report the crime!

A Certified Ethical Hacker is a skilled professional who understands and knows how to look for the weaknesses and vulnerabilities in target systems, using the same knowledge and tools as a malicious hacker. Possessing this type of certification stimulates the right kind of conversation in an interview or job proposal as most companies are starting to become more security-aware.

Computer Forensics is simply the application of computer investigation and analysis techniques in the interests of determining potential legal evidence. Evidence might be sought in a wide range of computer crime or misuse, including but not limited to theft of trade secrets, theft of or destruction of intellectual property, and fraud. CHFI investigators can draw on an array of methods for discovering data that resides in a computer system, or recovering deleted, encrypted, or damaged file information.

Course Description

Computers around the world are systematically being victimized by rampant hacking. This hacking is not only widespread, but is being executed so flawlessly that the attackers compromise a system, steal everything of value and completely erase their tracks within 20 minutes.

The goal of the Ethical Hacker is to help the organization take preemptive measures against malicious attacks by attacking the system himself; all the while staying within legal limits. This philosophy stems from the proven practice of trying to catch a thief, by thinking like a thief. As technology advances and organizations depend increasingly on technology, information assets have evolved into critical components of survival.

If hacking involves creativity and thinking 'out-of-the-box', then vulnerability testing and security audits will not ensure the security proofing of an organization. To ensure that organizations have adequately protected their information assets, they must adopt the approach of 'defense in depth'. In other words, they must penetrate their networks and assess the security posture for vulnerabilities and exposure. As technology advances and organizations increasingly depend on technology, information assets have evolved into critical components of survival. Organizations must penetrate their networks in order to assess the security posture for vulnerabilities and exposure. The goal of a Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) is to help the organization take preemptive measures against malicious attacks by attacking their own system. This individual is usually a skilled professional employed within the organization and who can be trusted to undertake an attempt to penetrate networks and/or computer systems. A CEH understands and knows how to look for the weaknesses and vulnerabilities in target systems and uses the same knowledge and tools as a malicious hacker.

Computer Hacking Forensic Investigation is the process of detecting hacking attacks and properly extracting evidence to report the crime and conduct audits to prevent future attacks. Computer forensics is simply the application of computer investigation and analysis techniques in the interests of determining potential legal evidence. Evidence might be sought in a wide range of computer crime or misuse, including but not limited to theft of trade secrets, theft of or destruction of intellectual property, and fraud. CHFI investigators can draw on an array of methods for discovering data that resides in a computer system, or recovering deleted, encrypted, or damaged file information.

Securing and analyzing electronic evidence is a central theme in an ever-increasing number of conflict situations and criminal cases. Electronic evidence is critical in the following situations:

• Disloyal employees
• Computer break-ins
• Possession of pornography
• Breach of contract
• Industrial espionage
• E-mail Fraud
• Bankruptcy
• Disputed dismissals
• Web page defacements
• Theft of company documents

During this 7-day lab intensive course, candidates are immersed in an interactive environment where they learn how perimeter defenses work and are lead into scanning and attacking their own networks. No real network is harmed. Students then learn how intruders escalate privileges and what steps can be taken to secure a system. Students also learn about Intrusion Detection, DDoS Attacks, and Buffer Overflows. When a student leaves this intensive 7-day class, they will have hands-on understanding and experience in Ethical Hacking.

Participants also gain the necessary skills to identify an intruder's footprints and to properly gather the necessary evidence to prosecute. This class immerses the student into an interactive environment where they will be shown how to scan, test, hack and secure their own systems. The lab intensive environment gives each student in-depth knowledge and practical experience. They leave with the ability to quantitatively assess and measure threats, and to discover where an organization is most vulnerable to an attack.

About the CHFI Certification

C|HFI rated as one of the best new certifications worldwide by CertMag: Certification Magazine (www.certmag.com) has named EC-Council’s Computer Hacking Forensic Investigator as one of the best new certifications worldwide in the Best New Program or Certification category. The Certified Hacking Forensics Investigator (C|HFI) certification deals with the process of detecting hacking attacks, properly extracting evidence to report cyber crimes and conducting audits to prevent future attacks.

Students are taught how to apply computer investigation and analysis techniques in the interests of determining potential legal evidence. The author of the Top 10 list, Ed Tittel, commented that the Computer Hacking Forensic Investigator certification “is one of the first big, major player entries into an otherwise highly fragmented and regionalized computer forensics landscape. Those who are interested in criminal investigation or general computer forensics topics should find this cert very interesting.”

The Top 10 selection had factored in rankings and ratings regarding the appeal, popularity, employment potential and pay associated with specific credentials, along with information about the size and composition of the professionals who hold such credentials. To be in the Top 10 of the Best New Program or Certification list, the program or certification was to represent innovative topics or subject focus, certify interesting, useful skills and knowledge or represent ways to involve IT professionals early in programs that require years of documented work experience.

President of EC-Council, Jay Bavisi commented, “This is good news for EC-Council and the forensics community. This shows the relevance and importance of the C|HFI, the Computer Hacking Forensic Investigator certification by EC-Council and is an independent verification to our extensive work in this area”.
