Certifications

Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) v12

EC-Council · 2025

The CEH, or Certified Ethical Hacker, is a globally recognized certification in cybersecurity that validates skills in identifying vulnerabilities and threats in systems using the same tools and techniques as malicious hackers, but in a lawful and defensive way. Through CEH v12, I gained knowledge in areas like footprinting and reconnaissance, scanning networks, enumeration, system hacking, web application security, malware threats, cryptography, and incident management. The certification also emphasizes hands-on labs and real-world scenarios, which helped me practice penetration testing and understand attacker methodologies. For a SOC Analyst role, this certification is valuable because it gives me the attacker’s perspective, which helps me better analyze logs, detect anomalies, and respond to incidents proactively.
