EC-CouncilEC-Council Certified Cybersecurity Technician (CCT)
EC-Council Certified Cybersecurity Technician (CCT) validates the hands-on skills of an entry-level security practitioner: network defence, ethical hacking fundamentals, digital forensics and security operations. It is designed for newcomers to cybersecurity, IT support staff and career changers aiming for SOC or security technician roles.
The certification is earned through exam 212-82, which combines knowledge questions with practical tasks. No deep prior experience is expected, and preparation builds your skills step by step with guided labs, real-world scenarios and practice questions so that you arrive at the exam ready.

Preparation courses
Renewal and validity
Under EC-Council's continuing professional education (CPE) scheme, previously called ECE, you log 120 credits for each certification within its three-year cycle through activities such as conferences, webinars, training, publishing or passing a newer exam version, and you pay an annual fee that extends the certificate year by year. Missing the requirements leads to suspension and then revocation, so check EC-Council's current CPE policy, as details change.
