How long is the course and how is it scheduled?

The program runs about two months. Sessions are scheduled on weekends or on weekday evenings so you can train alongside a job or studies, and new batches open regularly. You can join a batch or request 1-on-1 mentoring.

Can I take it online or does it have to be onsite?

Both. You can attend fully online from anywhere in the world, or onsite at our Islamabad location. The labs and mentor support are the same either way, and all sessions are hands-on and delivered by certified trainers.

Is this beginner friendly, or do I need experience first?

It is best described as intermediate. If you have solid IT and networking fundamentals you can absolutely succeed, and motivated beginners are welcome. If you are starting from zero, our mentors will help you close the gaps, and EC-Council recommends around two years of security experience for the CEH exam itself.

Does the course include the EC-Council CEH exam, and will I be certified?

The course prepares you for the EC-Council CEH v13 exam and follows its full blueprint, but the official exam and its voucher are arranged separately through EC-Council. On finishing the course you receive a NUEXUS completion certificate, while the EC-Council CEH credential is earned by passing EC-Council's own exam, which we cannot guarantee.

What will I actually build and practice?

You work in live labs across all 20 CEH modules: running reconnaissance, scanning and enumerating targets, exploiting systems, web apps, and wireless networks, escalating privileges, and writing a professional penetration test report. You also practice using AI to speed up recon, vulnerability triage, and analysis, which is the defining feature of CEH v13.

How much does it cost?

Pricing depends on your region and whether you choose online or onsite and batch or 1-on-1. Please reach out through nuexus.com/contact or nuexus.com/trainings and our team will share the current options for you.

Overview

What you will be able to do

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.

Outcomes

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

Hands-on lab

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.

Certification path

Two credentials, and they are not the same thing

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
