Cyber threats get more advanced every year, and "white hat" hackers are in demand. Online security experts are required to keep up on systems and strategies that are constantly updating, and it can be hard for employers to reliably know who is capable.

All 21 hours of this boot camp are taught by Mohamed Atef, an ITC consultant with more than 20 years of experience. His course takes you through the makeup and vulnerabilities of 18 popular security domains and teaches how to counter 270 different attack strategies that malicious hackers can use to penetrate them. Along the way, you'll learn preventative measures like penetration testing and understand the various scanning and enumeration countermeasures that are part of any defense expert's toolbox. From Trojans to viruses to malware, you'll have the tools and know-how to deal with them all – and the certification to prove it.

The Complete Ethical Hacking Certification Course is on sale now for $12.99, a full 93% off the original cost.
