Certified Ethical Social Engineer Certification
After you complete the Foundational Application of Social Engineering (FASE) and Practical Application of Social Engineering (PASE) classes, you are eligible to take the Certified Ethical Social Engineer (CESE) certification exam.
We feel that a beneficial certification must contain these elements:
- Be Practical
- Be Challenging
- Be Real World
The Certified Ethical Social Engineer Certification exam accomplishes all that.
The team at SECOM has been running a target company for over a decade. It has several employees to target, who are not real people but look as authentic as possible on the internet. This target company also has some employees who don’t know they are part of a certification process.
These employees run the secretarial and tech support systems. You are given 48 hours to accomplish all the certification goals during your certification. You are granted access to SECOM’s custom vishing server. All instructions arrive at the time you choose to start the certification.
Staying Current
Starting in 2024, all CESE will be required to recertify every three years to maintain their certification status.
Each student will be notified when their certification is coming up for renewal. At that time, they will be scheduled and allowed to take an updated exam to maintain their CESE certification for another three years. The renewal exam fee is $399.
