CBT Nuggets Review of the Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) Course

CBT Nuggets site is a good resource for online video training. There were a few minor issues that come with age, such as the site intermemos.com no longer being available, but away from that, the content and presentation of the material was really good and easy to follow.
