Each certification is mapped to the National Cybersecurity Workforce Framework (NCWF). The Framework organizes cybersecurity into seven high-level Categories, each comprised of several specialty areas, work roles, knowledge, skills, abilities, and tasks. These seven high-level Categories are aligned directly to the CCE® Program’s certification Concentration Areas. Candidates often prepare for an exam by using a variety of resources that familiarize them with the authoritative sources and the exam’s concentration area.
Third-party products and services, including course instructors have helped many candidates to close knowledge and skill gaps. Lunarline does not endorse any particular provider and encourages candidates to use a variety of tools and resources that will enhance their understanding of relevant principles and the exam’s concentration area.
Certification Description
Successful completion of this exam will demonstrate a candidates ability to analyze exploits of different types of vulnerabilities of various services (protocols such as: HTTP, HTTPS, ICP, HTCP, WCCP, SOCKS, PHP, CGI, ODBC, HTML, and XML) and technologies (such as: Web Servers, Database Servers, Windows, Linux, and Embedded Devices).
The candidate shall demonstrate the ability to recognize the toolkits, malicious code, and techniques used for exploitation. The candidate’s understanding of the associated risks, effects, severity, and the prevention, mitigation, and recovery methods for different exploits will also be demonstrated.
