Re: CEH or OSCP?

Hi,

There's really only one good answer to this : OSCP.

If you still want to be in security after that, you're good .... be prepared for a wild ride though, you'll be out

I'm not gonna comment on CEH ...

Cheers,

Prove to peers and potential employers without a doubt that you can actually do a proper penetration test. IACRB CPT 
and CEPT certs require a full practical examination in order to become certified.
