Prevent. Detect. Respond.

The mission of SANS' Cyber Defense curriculum, led by Dr. Eric Cole, is to teach individuals the essential skills and techniques needed to protect and secure an organization's critical information assets and business systems. http://www.sans.org/info/156480

Now, for the first time, cyber defense practitioners will come together for a two-day Summit to share real-life success stories, best practices, and tips that are immediately actionable. Attendees will walk away from the Summit with the experience-based, practical advice they need to avoid having their organizations become the next headline in the Wall Street Journal for being the victims of a breach.

- Data discovery - finding your most critical data so you can lock it down

- Metrics and dashboards that really matter
