Security+ Certification vs. CEH (Certified Ethical Hacker ANSI)

Part of the EC-Council’s core program, the Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) certification is designed for cybersecurity practitioners with advanced technical skills. CEH credential holders are well-versed in the techniques and tools used by hackers to cause harm. Rather than use their skills for malicious purposes, CEH holders work to beat hackers at their own game by looking for system vulnerabilities and other network system weaknesses. While not required, the official CEH training is highly recommended; it covers over 340 common cyberattack technologies and methods.

There are two paths to earning the CEH. Candidates who attend CEH training can take the CEH exam without going through the application process. Those who choose not to attend training must have at least two years of experience and submit an application package that verifies that work experience; when their applications are approved, candidates are sent an exam voucher code that allows them to attempt the exam. Once candidates obtain the CEH basic credential, they are eligible to test for the CEH Practical credential.

As with the CISSP, the CEH targets a different audience than the Security+. Not only is CEH an expert-level credential for those who possess superior technical skills, it specifically targets security professionals working with ethical hacking. As we have seen, the Security+ is geared to junior-level security team members with basic technical skills.
