The Certified Ethical Hacker is
a professional
certification, provided by the International Council of E-Commerce Consultants
(EC-Council.)
An ethical hacker is usually employed by an organization who trusts him or her to attempt to penetrate networks and/or computer systems, using the same methods as a hacker, for the purpose of finding and fixing computer security vulnerabilities. Unauthorized hacking (i.e., gaining access to computer systems without prior authorization from the owner) is a crime in most countries, but penetration testing done by request of the owner of the victim system(s) or network(s) is not.
A Certified Ethical Hacker has obtained a certification in how to look for the weaknesses and vulnerabilities in target systems and uses the same knowledge and tools as a hacker.
The code for the CEH exam is 312-50. The certification is in Version 8 as of late 2013.
The EC-Council offers another certification, known as Certified Network Defense Architect (C|NDA). This certification is designed for United States Government Agencies, and is available only to members of selected agencies. Other than the name, the content of the course is exactly the same. The exam code for C|NDA is 312-99

“We don't just have great instructors, our instructors have years
of industry experience and are recognized as experts. EC-Council Master
instructors have real life Network Security and Ethical Hacking experience. The bottom
line with this program is that we hope the work starts when the class is over.
So I think it is important to teach students how to use the material more so
than expecting them to memorize all of it in a short time. "
