Recently brought a new issue of the magazine devoted to the organization of the IT department. Among the articles, in the author's signature, I came across a description of his regalia: “He has the title MCSE, CEH”. If the first is familiar and understandable, then the second abbreviation had to google. I stumbled upon a Wikipedia article describing “xy from” Certified Ethical Hacker. After talking to a colleague, he compared this specialist with a professional in the field of fraud with taxation, I noted that it resembles a thief in law =). But the list of such certificates is extensive and happy. This post is more informative than my remarks about my new knowledge.
