CEH v13 Modules

One guide per official module. Each follows the same structure (00-TEMPLATE.md):

📖 Each module also has a concept page under ../domains/ — read it first for the overview, then work the folder here.

  1. Exam focus — what CEH actually tests here
  2. Key concepts — the testable facts, taxonomies, definitions
  3. Key tools — with official links
  4. Commands & techniques — real, lab-ready syntax
  5. Lab exercise — run it against your ../labs/ targets
  6. Defender & PAM mapping — tie each attack to the control you manage
  7. Exam tips & gotchas
  8. Sources — official / well-known references only

Accuracy note. Command syntax is written to be lab-ready but tool versions change — always confirm flags with the tool's own --help/man page and the official docs linked in each module. Never run these outside your authorized lab.
