(ECES) program introduces professionals and students to the field of cryptography. The participants will learn the foundations of modern symmetric and key cryptography including the details of algorithms such as Feistel Networks, DES, and AES. Other topics introduced:</p><p> Overview of other algorithms such as Blowfish, Twofish, and Skipjack<br> Hashing algorithms including MD5, MD6, SHA, Gost, RIPMD 256 and others.<br> Asymmetric cryptography including thorough descriptions of RSA, Elgamal, Elliptic Curve, and DSA.<br> Significant concepts such as diffusion, confusion, and Kerkchoff鈥檚 principle.</p><h4>Certification Target Audience</h4><p>This course is excellent for ethical hackers and penetration testing professionals as most penetration testing courses skip cryptanalysis completely. Many penetration testing professionals testing usually don鈥檛 attempt to crack cryptography. A basic knowledge of cryptanalysis is very beneficial to any penetration testing.</p><h4>Exam Information</h4><p>ECES exam is available at the ECC Exam Center.</p><p>EC-Council reserves the right to revoke the certification status of candidates that do not comply with all EC-Council examination policies found <a href="https://cert.eccouncil.org/certification-exam-policy.html"><strong>here</strong></a>.</p> <br><table class="table table-striped table-bordered" style="width:20%"><tbody><tr><th colspan="2"> ECES Exam Details</th></tr><tr><td>Duration</td><td>2 Hours</td></tr><tr><td>Questions</td><td>50</td></tr><tr><td>Passing Score</td><td>70%</td></tr></tbody></table> <a href="https://cert.eccouncil.org/images/doc/ECES-Exam-Blueprint-v1.pdf" target="_blank" class="button button-mini button-blue button-rounded" rel="noopener"><i class="icon-fingerprint"></i>ECES Blueprint</a> <br><br><p class="mb-2"><i><strong>Clause: Age Requirements and Policies Concerning Minors</strong></i></p><p class="mb-3">Minors are not permitted to take the EC-Council exam without a written consent/indemnity letter signed by their parent or legal guardian, along with a supporting letter from their institution of learning.
