Introduction

EC-Council Certified Security Analyst (ECSA V8) complements the Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) certification by exploring the analytical phase of ethical hacking. While CEH exposes the learner to hacking tools and technologies, ECSA V8 takes it a step further by exploring how to analyze the outcome from these tools and technologies. Through groundbreaking penetration testing methods and techniques, ECSA V8 class helps students perform the intensive assessments required to effectively identify and mitigate risks to the security of the infrastructure. The objective of a Licensed Penetration Tester is to ensure that each professional licensed by EC-Council follows a strict code of ethics, is exposed to the best practices in the domain of penetration testing and aware of all compliance requirements required by the industry.

Course Objective

Providing real world hands on experience, it is the only in-depth Advanced Hacking and Penetration Testing class available that covers testing in all modern infrastructures, operating systems and application environments. The ECSA course equips one with the knowledge and know-hows to become an EC-Council Licensed Penetration Tester.

EC-Council’s Certified Security Analyst/LPT program is a highly interactive security class designed to teach Security Professionals the advanced uses of the LPT methodologies, tools and techniques required to perform comprehensive information security tests. Students will learn how to design, secure and test networks to protect your organization from the threats hackers and crackers pose. By teaching the tools and ground breaking techniques for security and penetration testing, this class will help you perform the intensive assessments required to effectively identify and mitigate risks to the security of your infrastructure. As students learn to identify security problems, they also learn how to avoid and eliminate them, with the class providing complete coverage of analysis and network security-testing topics.

Job Roles of ECSA

  • Perform network and application penetration testing using both automated and manual techniques
  • Design and perform audits of computer systems to ensure they are operating securely and that data is protected from both internal and external threats
