SANS training is well-known for being relevant and pragmatic. All SANS instructors are industry leaders and experts who understand the challenges you face on a daily basis. Their real-world experience increases the practical value of the course material. Here are some comments from our past SANS Cyber Guardian alumni:
"I have 12 years of experience in IT security, and I'm learning new information on each module." - Emanuel Almeida, IBM
"The course (SEC503) helps build the foundation of skills to recognize network intrusions. Packet captures and IDS analysis should be the cornerstone of every network admin's skill repertoire and this course helps you gain those skills." - Charles Kershaw, NIOC Maryland
"SEC560 provides a solid basis for understanding the concepts, methods and tools available to hackers, and is valuable not only to pen testers, but also to anyone involved in IT or IT security." - Chirs Sell, SunGuard
"Everything you need to learn for the basics of forensics in just six days; any more knowledge and your head would explode!" (SEC508) - Matthew Harvey, U.S. Department of Justice
Our campus will be the Hilton Baltimore hotel located in downtown Baltimore's Inner Harbor District. A special discount rate of $215 S/D will be honored based on space availability.
