# CYB400L Ethical Hacking with AI Lab

College of Technology Cybersecurity Department

**Course Description:** This course guides students through the analysis, documentation, and reporting of vulnerabilities identified in ethical hacking labs. Learners research real-world threats, examine Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs), and apply artificial intelligence (AI)–enhanced tools to support scanning, vulnerability detection, and penetration testing activities. Emphasis is placed on producing professional-quality deliverables, including technical reports and presentations that clearly communicate findings to both technical and non-technical audiences. Students develop the ability to assess security risks, recommend effective mitigation strategies, and present results with clarity, accuracy, and adherence to ethical standards. This course also aligns with key objectives of the EC-Council Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) exam, reinforcing both technical and communication competencies essential for cybersecurity professionals.
