What Our Clients and Students Say

Real stories and results from organizations and professionals who’ve worked or studied with us.

I studied in the Certified Ethical Hacker v12 course in an academic format for six months. I joined the course with the goal of building a solid theoretical foundation in cybersecurity, as my previous self-study and university experience had left me with fragmented knowledge. The course covered all the theoretical material step by step — from the basic concepts of cybersecurity to methodologies and approaches for securing organizations. Each aspect of cybersecurity was studied through dedicated modules. The instructor — a certified ethical hacker and educator with decades of experience in both cybersecurity practice and teaching — was always happy to answer any questions. Each module included hands-on lab work, where we could try out most of the tools discussed during the lectures. In addition to the labs, we were provided with a digital textbook, which remains accessible for two years — allowing for convenient revision whenever needed. At the end of the course, several sessions were dedicated to reviewing certification-style questions. The instructor explained various nuances, shared tips on how to read the questions carefully, what to focus on, and where common mistakes might occur. The exam voucher is valid for one year after gaining access to the materials (labs and textbook), which gave me plenty of time to prepare. I was able to choose the most convenient exam date myself. The proctor greeted me, explained everything, and the exam process was very smooth and comfortable. I eventually passed the certification successfully. I highly recommend studying here — the conditions are extremely comfortable, and the voucher alone costs more than the entire package offered here: training, materials, and the exam — all with the added benefit of being able to ask questions and clarify anything at any time.

Sofiia I.

Hi! I took the exam yesterday (February 22, 2025), and I’d like to share my experience.
 First of all — the course materials are more than enough to pass successfully. During my preparation, I used the cheat sheet, which, honestly, covered about half of the questions I encountered.
 I also practiced with dumps (around 400 questions in total), but just as Andrii had warned us — only about five of them showed up on the exam.
 There were, however, a few questions where the answer choices were more or less the same as in the dumps, but the questions themselves were completely different. So, if you study the dumps thoughtfully, actually understanding the material rather than just memorizing the answers — your chances of success increase significantly.
 The exam itself took around three hours.

Maksym B.

Before starting the course, I already had some experience in penetration testing and cybersecurity in general. However, the course helped me fill in the gaps and structure the knowledge I had previously acquired.
 The material is presented sequentially, with an emphasis on real-world cases and hands-on practice, which makes the learning process highly effective.
 I’d like to highlight the instructor Andrii – he not only explains the theoretical material clearly but also shares his hands-on experience “from the field” and real projects. This helps to better understand how different techniques and methods work in real life, not just in a lab environment.
 As for the CEH exam – it’s challenging, but with proper preparation and a responsible attitude toward the training, it’s absolutely manageable.
 Taking the course with SEG fully prepares you for certification, as the curriculum covers all necessary topics and includes a large number of practical exercises.
 I recommend this course both to those just starting their journey in pentesting and to experienced professionals – it will help structure your knowledge, deepen your skills, and significantly boost your readiness for the CEH certification.

Maksym

With 12 years of experience as a CISO, I’ve often felt the need to deepen my professional knowledge and find effective answers to the ever-evolving challenges in information security.
 The entire course material is exceptionally well-structured, and even the most complex topics are explained in a clear and understandable way.
 What stood out most were the real-world cases and practices – not just theoretical knowledge, but scenarios that we, as professionals, encounter daily.
 The practical tasks were well-designed and proved to be a valuable addition to my day-to-day work.
 I highly recommend this course to all my colleagues and professionals in the cybersecurity field who truly want to stay on top of the latest trends and be one step ahead of any potential threats.

Oleksandr V.

I’d like to sincerely thank the team at Security Expert Group Academy for the opportunity to complete the official CEH | Certified Ethical Hacker v11 course and prepare for the exam that will grant me international recognition as a certified ethical hacker.
 As a beginner in cybersecurity, this course was extremely helpful in that it covered all possible attack vectors, taught me how to identify incidents, and gave a clear understanding of cyberattacks from an attacker’s point of view.
 What mattered most to me were the real-life examples the trainer shared during the course and the opportunity to see how what we were learning applies in actual scenarios.
 Without the instructor’s comments, guidance, and support, the learning process would not have been as interesting or effective. He also provided lots of additional resources to help prepare for the exam.
 My next step is to take the Cyber Defence course for the Blue Team. I will happily continue my studies with this company and this instructor.
 I recommend this course both to those who are still trying to find their cybersecurity path and to those who have already chosen the Red Team route. I’m confident that the teaching methods and knowledge from the lectures will help pass the exam easily.
 Thanks to both the SEGAcademy team and the instructor for supporting me throughout my learning.
 P.S. By the way, SEGAcademy’s management recommended me to one of their partners, and I was offered a job that gave me a chance to start moving toward my dream career.

Oleksandr S.

I want to express my gratitude for the professional organization and delivery of the Certified Ethical Hacker course.
 The course covers up-to-date and relevant technologies, and the material is presented in an accessible way.
 I especially appreciated the high-quality hands-on labs, which helped reinforce the acquired knowledge to the fullest.
 Throughout the course, the lecturer shared helpful materials and resources where we could practice or dive deeper into the content.
 I joined the course to expand my knowledge in the area of information and resource protection.
 My impressions are entirely positive. Thank you!

Oleksandr K.

Throughout my IT career, I’ve occasionally explored the field of cybersecurity and was registered on Hack The Box. When I had the time and motivation, I would work on hacking educational targets – though sometimes without fully understanding what I was doing – analyzing architectures, exploring code, modifying it, and so on.
 Eventually, my job became related to security, and I decided to deepen my knowledge. I found this course through reviews and enrolled.
 I can say that part of the course is dry theory and may not be essential for everyone – just like the certificate itself – but that’s actually a benefit, since not everyone has this knowledge or the certification.
 Regarding the practical labs: if you don’t know basic Linux commands, I suggest spending a week learning them before starting the course, or you’ll be slowing things down. You can’t fly a plane if you don’t know what pitch means. :)
 The trainer – or teacher, mentor, however you’d like to call him – made the material lively and interesting. Falling asleep in class wasn’t an option. :)
 He also explained clearly what we were doing during the practical tasks.
 I passed the exam six months after finishing the course. If you attend regularly and don’t skip lessons, the knowledge sticks. But still, self-study is essential.
 After the course, if you don’t find a job in cybersecurity, you’ll likely forget everything within a year. I mean, this should be a daily practice, not just something you do when you’re in the mood to sit at the computer.
 Verdict: the course is totally worth taking. Pass the exam and become a certified cybersecurity specialist.
 Or, for those outside the IT world – a hacker.
 Felt like a thriller.

Victor P.

I was a student of the Certified Ethical Hacker v12 course.
 Well-structured theory and a massive amount of hands-on practice.
 And most importantly – an open and experienced trainer, and a friendly, welcoming atmosphere.
 I really liked that the course offered not just complete theoretical material, but also practical homework based on real projects.
 This allowed me to fully immerse myself in the subject.
 Thanks for the collaboration!

FAQ

A Red Team is a group of cybersecurity experts who simulate real-world hacker attacks on a company. Their goal is to test an organization’s defenses and uncover vulnerabilities that could be exploited. This is a more aggressive and holistic approach compared to standard penetration testing.
