Cheers Ken, good to know. While we are on this subject I'm wondering if anyone can help dispel a rumour I've heard that Military contracts don't rate the CEH and will even go as far as to flag you up as a potential miscreant if they get a CV with CEH on?
Thanks
James

From what I can gather from various posts, the word/term "Hacker" doesn't bold well (however as I have never worked for the military, I'm only passing on 3rd party info). This is why the EC-Council developed the CNDA program, which is basically the CEH program under a different name.

See here.

Thanks Ken, seeing as I want to get into Pen testing, as much as I want to do the CEH, I'm thinking I better look into Check and Crest. James
