Pros
Cons
-
- This course is rich. It covers a wealth of topics with sufficient depth to help students develop practical skills.
- Course is designed as a prep for the CEH exam, and student success rates verify that it is a quality prep course.
- Class uses historical examples to help students learn the process of hacking through real-life exercises.
-
- Historical examples are interesting, but they do not introduce students to modern syntaxes that are necessary for a career in ethical hacking.
- Course claims to be designed for inexperienced coders, but students with a Python background are much more successful.
- Wide scope of the course will force students to work with Python, Java, HTML, ASP, PHP and more. Without a strong background, students will need to spend plenty of hours with supplemental resources.
