My Journey to the CEH Practical v12

A personal review of the exam and some tips on how to best prepare for it

--

The Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) certification, offered by EC-Council, is one of the most popular in the cybersecurity field.

However, the certification has often been criticized for relying solely on multiple-choice questions and having almost no focus on practical skills.

To address this, EC-Council introduced the CEH Practical exam, which provides an additional certification that focuses on applying the practical concepts learned in the theoretical certification program.

I recently passed the CEH Practical v12 exam, and in this article, I’ll share my experience while highlighting some useful tips for those planning to take the exam.
