Plan to arrive at your test center at least 30 minutes before your exam start time. To check
in, you’ll need to:
■ ■ Show two (2) valid, unexpired forms of personal ID (examples include: government
issued IDs, passport, etc.). Both must have your signature, and one of the two must
have your photo. For more information about acceptable IDs please visit: https://
www.isc2.org/Register-for-Exam, and look under the What You Need to Bring to the
Test Center tab for more information.
■ ■ Provide your signature.
■ ■ Submit to a palm vein scan (unless it’s prohibited by law).
■ ■ Have your photo taken. Hats, scarves, and coats may not be worn for your photo. You
also can’t wear these items in the test room.
The Test Administrator (TA) will give you a short orientation. If you have already arranged
for special accommodations for your testing, and (ISC)2 and Pearson VUE have approved them,
be sure to go over these with the TA. Then, the TA will escort you to a computer terminal.
Let’s Get Started!
This book is structured in a way that you will be led through foundational concepts and then
through a general methodology for ethical hacking. You can feel free to select your own path-
way through the book. Remember, wherever possible, get your hands dirty. Get some experi-
ence with tools, tactics, and procedures that you are less familiar with. It will help you a lot.
Take the self-assessment. It may help you get a better idea how you can make the best
use of this book.
