Tech: Yahoo! News - School Teaches ‘Ethical Hacking’ to Computer Students: I am dubious. Some of their certification exams are offered through Prometric’s web-based service, which makes saving the questions as easy as using a digital camera or a screen capture program.

If they pass that test, they get the ultimate seal of approval: Certified Ethical Hacker. The class is by no means easy. Instructors race through topics like symmetric versus asymmetric key cryptography (symmetric is faster), war dialing (hackers will always call late at night) and well-known TCP ports and services (be wary of any activity on Port 0). ”
