Overview
EC-Council has developed the Certified Cybersecurity Technician certification:
- To validate hands-on technician level IT and cybersecurity skills.
- It’s an entry-level cybersecurity program engineered by the creators of the Certified Ethical Hacker program to address the global demand for cybersecurity technicians.
- To prepare individuals with core security skills to pursue and develop their cybersecurity careers as cybersecurity specialists, consultants, network engineers, or IT administrators
What is Unique About the C|CT Program?
C|CT Key Offerings:
Strong Foundational Coverage
The C|CT certification provides total foundational cybersecurity domain coverage with key concepts in each domain combined with practical hands-on labs and critical thinking challenges producing world-class cyber security technologists.
Live Range Experience
Other popular programs rely on simulation and interactivity as practical-based assessment, the C|CT program is delivered on a live Cyber Range utilizing live targets and real attack systems for a truly immersive, real-life practice and assessment platform.
Capture the Flag
The C|CT certification offers capture the flag (CTF) style critical thinking challenges to accompany each lab exercise putting knowledge into practice and providing a proven record of skill demonstration. Candidates completing the C|CT program will earn the C|CT certification and have a proven track record of performing the tasks required in a live Cyber Range, proving to employers their ability to perform critical job duties.
Multiple Certifications
The course outline of the C|CT program goes above and beyond some of the more common entry-level cybersecurity programs, such as the Security+, in a completely hands-on cyber range environment instead of simulations to ensure cybersecurity skills development. We believe that candidates who successfully attain the C|CT certification will attain other leading cybersecurity certifications, including Security+, without further training
Most Affordable
Despite the unique design of the heavily hands-on course and its uses of real-world cyber range capability, the certification is one of the most affordable in the world!
Target Audience
The C|CT course can be taken by students, IT professionals, IT managers, career changers, and any individual seeking a career in cybersecurity, or aspiring to advance their existing role. This course is ideal for those entering the cybersecurity workforce, providing foundational technician level, hands-on skills to solve the most common security issues organizations face today.
Pre-requisites
There are no specific prerequisites to take the C|CT course and attempt the C|CT certification exam. Although this is an entry-level course, a working knowledge of IT networking and basic cybersecurity concepts will be an advantage to anyone taking this course.
