Network (in)Security Interesting hacks and cracks. Info on firewalls, TCP/IP, encryption, networks, and security. The ins and outs of the phone system, caller services, how things work, what's illegal and what's not, cellular phones, beepers, telephony legislation, the PUC, ISDN, taps, who's listening, and switches. Talking about phones, hacking systems, technical advice, and such is completely LEGAL in the United States -- it's covered by the First Amendment. What's illegal is conspiracy to commit a crime. So if you say something like "Meet me at 2am so we can crack a can" or "I changed my cell phone's number myself" you are criminally liable. Stating "You can crack a can by doing thus-and-so" or "If you wanted to change a cell phone's number, you could do it like so" is perfectly OK. Posting passwords, calling card numbers, or credit card numbers is forbidden on this network. Posting such info will get you booted off the net.

Default You think CEH is worth getting?

I only saw one job on monster .com and it payed 95-125 per year. Does anyone have this, or are you currently studying it? I'm quite interested in your opinions. Thanks.



Edit: One job that REQUIRED it. I'm sure it looks impressive on a resume to a company who doesn't require it.

quote:The Certified Ethical Hacker certification will [b]fortify[b/] the application knowledge of security officers, auditors, security professionals, site administrators, and anyone who is concerned about the integrity of the network infrastructure.

Notice the bold. Once you get the knowledge to be able to get the certifaction you probably won't want it.

edit: To be able to afford the knowledge you need, you would probably have a good job and have it somewhat secure, would you want to switch over to a less secure job and have the risk of not having a job for a little more money?

If you can obtain Linux+, A+ and Security+ from CompTIA you pretty much will be able to demonstrate the same level of knowledge.
