SANS Germany 2012

SANS Germany 2012 is coming up soon on 5-10 March at the Arcotel Camino in Stuttgart. This will be the first SANS training conference in the country since 2008. SANS is bringing some of its biggest classes back to Europe by popular demand.

SANS Germany 2012 will offer three of the most popular, highly regarded, and in-depth training classes in the industry - taught by world-leading experts. We are very excited with the class line-up.

A must for all incident handlers:

- SEC504: Hacker Techniques, Exploits and Incident Handling with George Bakos

If your organization has an Internet connection or one or two disgruntled employees (and whose doesn't?), your computer systems will get attacked. From the five, ten, or even one hundred daily probes against your Internet infrastructure to the malicious insider slowly creeping through your most vital information assets, attackers are targeting your systems with increasing viciousness and stealth.

"The lab on day 6 was awesome! Although we discussed many methods throughout the week to scan, penetrate and exploit networks, the lab truly 'brought it home.'" - David Quigley, USAF NATO

For the first time since SANS London 2009:

- MGT512: SANS Security Leadership Essentials for Managers with Knowledge Compression with Stephen Northcutt

This completely updated course is designed to empower advancing managers who want to get up to speed quickly on information security issues and terminology. You won't just learn about security, you will learn how to manage security. Lecture sections are intense; the most common student comment is that it's like drinking from a fire hose. The diligent manager will learn vital, up-to-date knowledge and skills required to supervise the security component of any information technology project. Additionally, the course has been engineered to incorporate the NIST Special Publication 800 (series) guidance so that it can be particularly useful to US government managers and supporting contractors.

"Worth every penny. The wealth of experience of SANS instructors is unsurpassed." - James Gan, Earthport PLC

And for the first time in Europe:

- DEV522: Defending Web Applications Security Essentials with Johannes Ullrich Ph.D.

This is the course to take if you have to defend web applications!

Traditional network defenses, such as firewalls, fail to secure web applications. The quantity and importance of data entrusted to web applications is growing, and defenders need to learn how to secure it. DEV522 covers the OWASP Top 10 and will help you to better understand web application vulnerabilities, thus enabling you to properly defend your organization's web assets.

"Again another excellent course, it is so nice and refreshing to get to the essentials rather than just being taught how to use a specific vendor tool." - Sue Stirrup, QA
