You'll also learn about the common security challenges facing OT systems. Finally, you'll examine common OT-related attacks, tools, and defensive countermeasures. This course is one in a series that helps to prepare you for the Certified Ethical Hacker v12 (312-50) exam.

CEH v12: Cloud Computing, Containers, Hacking, and Security Controls
Many of today's systems are becoming cloud-based at a rapid pace. In this course, you'll explore different cloud services, deployment models, responsibility areas, and architectures relevant to your CEH exam. Another rapidly adopted technology in today's networks is containers, making knowledge of them a necessary skill. You'll examine containers, technologies like Docker, and orchestration, as well as common security challenges. Next, you'll learn why cloud services have been prone to security issues and breaches and examine common security vulnerabilities and assessment tools. Finally, you'll learn about common security controls for cloud environments that can help you protect cloud accounts, storage, containers, and orchestration. This course is one in a series that helps to prepare you for the Certified Ethical Hacker v12 (312-50) exam.

CEH v12: Cryptography, Algorithms, Implementations, and Tools
Encryption is one of the best security controls available for defending computer networks and data, and cryptography plays a vital role in this process. In this course, you'll explore cryptography, including its purpose, types, and common ciphers, to help you better understand the strengths and weaknesses of common crypto-systems. Next, you'll examine the common algorithms and implementations used by various crypto-systems, including symmetric and asymmetric algorithms, hashing functions, and digital signatures. Encryption is highly effective for protecting sensitive data, but how do you encrypt something? To complete this course, you'll learn about tools that can help you secure sensitive data on servers, desktops, e-mail, and mobile. This course is one in a series that helps to prepare you for the Certified Ethical Hacker v12 (312-50) exam.

CEH v12: PKI, Cryptanalysis, and Attack Countermeasures
In today's day and age, data must be encrypted for secure communication with third parties. But how is this accomplished? In this course, you'll examine public key infrastructure (PKI) as an encryption solution. You'll also explore PKI components, processes, and how it compares with self-signed certificates. As long as there has been encrypted data, there have been attempts to break those encryptions. You'll next learn about cryptanalysis methods and attacks used to reveal hidden messages. Finally, you'll explore how to deploy the right encryption in the right way by learning about best practices and strategies for keeping your data safe. This course is one in a series that helps to prepare you for the Certified Ethical Hacker v12 (312-50) exam.
