Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH v13 with AI)
Become a job-ready ethical hacker who thinks like an attacker and uses AI to test, break, and defend modern systems.
This is a hands-on, mentor-led program that trains you in the full offensive security lifecycle covered by EC-Council's Certified Ethical Hacker v13, the first CEH edition to integrate AI into every phase of ethical hacking. Over roughly two months you work through live labs across all 20 CEH modules, learning to perform reconnaissance, exploit vulnerabilities, escalate access, and report findings the way real penetration testers do, while using AI to accelerate recon, analysis, and payload work. The course is exam-aligned to the current CEH v13 blueprint and job-focused, so you finish with both a recognized credential path and practical skills you can apply in a SOC, red team, or VAPT role. You earn a NUEXUS completion certificate on finishing, and separately you can pursue the official EC-Council CEH exam.

What you will be able to do
- Plan and run a structured penetration test through all five phases: reconnaissance, scanning, gaining access, maintaining access, and covering tracks
- Perform footprinting, network scanning, enumeration, and vulnerability analysis using industry-standard tools and AI-assisted techniques
- Exploit systems, web applications, wireless networks, and web servers, then perform privilege escalation and post-exploitation
- Test for the common web attacks including SQL injection, cross-site scripting, and session hijacking, and assess web servers and web apps
- Identify and exploit weaknesses in cloud, IoT, OT, and mobile environments, and understand cryptography and its attacks
- Use AI to accelerate reconnaissance, vulnerability triage, and analysis, and document findings in a clear, professional penetration test report
Who it is for
- -IT, network, or system administrators who want to move into offensive security and penetration testing
- -Aspiring ethical hackers and red teamers targeting the EC-Council CEH v13 credential
- -SOC analysts and blue team members who want to understand attacker techniques to defend better
- -Computer science and cybersecurity students building a job-ready practical skill set
- -Security professionals who need a globally recognized, HR-friendly certification for career growth
Prerequisites
- -Basic networking knowledge (TCP/IP, ports, protocols, the OSI model) and comfort with IP addressing
- -Familiarity with at least one operating system at the command line, ideally both Windows and Linux basics
- -General IT literacy; EC-Council recommends around two years of information security experience, though motivated career changers with strong fundamentals are welcome
- -A laptop able to run virtual machines for the lab environment; no prior hacking experience required

Everything you need to learn the skill and move toward the certification, in one program.
Learn by doing, in a real environment
Every one of the 20 CEH modules is practiced in a live lab you drive yourself, mirroring how real penetration tests run. CEH v13 is the first edition to weave AI through every phase.
- Hands-on labs across all 20 CEH v13 modules, recon through reporting
- Attack a deliberately vulnerable target range, not a simulator
- AI-driven recon, vulnerability triage, and analysis exercises
- Write a professional penetration-test report from your own findings

Certification path
This course is aligned to and prepares you for the EC-Council Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH v13) credential. The official CEH exam is a separate EC-Council assessment of 125 multiple-choice questions over four hours, and EC-Council also offers the optional hands-on CEH Practical exam. We maximize your readiness through full-blueprint labs and exam-style practice, but no course can guarantee an exam pass, and the exam voucher and attempt are arranged through EC-Council.
NUEXUS training certificate
Issued by NUEXUS when you complete the course. Anyone can confirm it is genuine on our verification portal.
