Ethical Hacking Eligibility

Hi,
The most important prerequisite before one chooses to become an ethical hacker is to ace computer networking knowledge:
. Expertise in at least one application like Java or C+.
. Knowledge of the functioning of UNIX.
. One should have an analytical approach and should probe every functioning with a critical bent of mind.
Take up a UG degree like BCA or BCS.
You can undergo a certificate/ diploma programme in ethical hacking to Learn. These certifications like Ankit Fadia Certified Ethical Hacker and Certified Ethical Hacker run by EC-Council are not approved by any university but there is no alternate and reliable bet in the market. There are many more institutes where you can take up these courses.

If you really want to be a hacker, you should get trained by professionals not by some trainers who really don't have any idea about what's going on in current trends. As for education, you can do BCA and sideways take training separately for hacking. You can google about best hackers of India. What I would suggest you is to go for Lucideus in Delhi which is India'a best hacker Rahul Tyagi is there and you would be amazed to know that Lucideus is a CERT-In organisation. CERT-In means Computer Emergency Response Team of India. I think the full name is enough for you to understand the level of Lucideus.
You will be shocked to see their clients. Some of them are Reserve bank of India, ICICI Bank and Government agencies.
Lucideus has divided its course in 2 parts-
LCEH Grade 1- For beginners, some basic hacks and methods with elaborated basic concept of networking, servers, kali operating system, information gathering)
LCEH Grade 2- For advance level, you must know about hacking basics, deep knowledge of penetration testing, reverse engineering, VAPT, cryptography, attacks, security standard maintenance, etc.
At Lucideus, you will find world class hacking professionals. I think, it's the best organisation if you want to learn ethical hacking in India.

Hello Sanget,
During Diploma, you can pursue courses which a student must know for pursuing the ethical hacking course. Once you completed pursuing these courses, you can opt for the certified ethical hacking programme:
1. You need to have good knowledge of networking to know about hacking. For that, you can opt for any CISCO certified networking courses like CCNA, CCNB, CCNP etc.
2. You need to have a strong knowledge of programming languages like JAVA.
3. Once you fulfill the above-mentioned requirements, you can enroll for a certified Ethical Hacking course.
Certified Ethical Hacking course (CEH) isn't sufficient enough to get you enrolled into a job as it's just a certification course. Therefore, pursue it alongside a regular degree course in Computers like B.Sc in cyber security, B.Sc in computer science or information technology, BCA or B.Tech in Computer Science.
