Took the CEH. Passed in 54 minutes.
I'll state the obvious, joke test...the Sec+ was probably harder but I took that like 4 years ago so who knows. Obvious money grab with typos and all.

CEH is probably the biggest scam cert I've experienced.

Took their four day prep class that probably cost my employer 5 Grand. The books were just printed power point slides.

The material was comedy. None of the labs functioned right. Typos everywhere.

That's hosed up that it's so highly regarded. Though maybe it's not anymore? I honestly haven't seen it on many job postings recently.

Pretty sure it's only highly regarded by non technical organizations and HR. It has the buzz words they like. Certified. Ethics! Hackers!!!!

If someone came to me with only a CEH and nothing else to back it up I'd be super wary.
