    I took it when the CEH was first being developed, and by FAR the best
    part were the instructors, John Nunes and Clement Dupuis (cccure.org and
    professionalsecuritytesters.org). The course itself was of limited
    value simply because the test was based mostly on tools (what tool would
    you use to hijack a session, etc), but it was definitely a learning
    experience. I really thought the test was useless, but at least it was
    easy if you have a good knowledge of hacking tools.

    Like every other boot camp, the unprepared students are annoying, but
    overall, I had a good experience.

    Greetings,

    I am considering taking the Ethical Hacking course
    tought by Intense School. Has anyone had experience
    with this training program? If so, I would be very
    interested in hearing your comments on the program.

    Thanks in Advance!
