It tests hardening systems, detecting attacks and responding to them: log and alert triage, hardening and patching and incident response drills. EC-Council publishes the full objective list and our syllabus follows it point by point.

Published pricing is USD 599, or USD 399 with WebAsha's 10% discounted voucher. Because EC-Council prices regionally, we verify the exact amount for you at booking.

The exam code is 312-38 (CND v3) exam. Use the code rather than the title, since EC-Council has closely-named variants.

Formal entry requirements are EC-Council's to set and are published on the exam page. Realistically, being able to handle log and alert triage, hardening and patching and incident response drills unsupervised matters more than any listed prerequisite.

It depends how much of hardening systems, detecting attacks and responding to them you already do. We would rather read your mock scores than guess a week count.

You are taught live rather than handed recordings, and the lab is yours around the clock. That matters here because attack-and-defence lab scenarios cannot be absorbed by watching alone.
