The most trusted source for computer security training, certification and research.



Community Security Training

Community SANS The Community SANS format offers our most popular security courses for your local security community, in a small classroom setting - most courses have fewer than 25 students. The course material is delivered over a six-day period, just like it is at a larger SANS event. We just deliver it in your own community at a discounted cost for tuition and travel expenses.

Community SANS benefits include:

  • Brings SANS to your local security community (so you can go home at night)
  • Instructors trained by SANS Fellows like Eric Cole and Ed Skoudis.
  • Full set of books and access to audio files
  • Opportunity to network with like-minded students from the local security community
