Our attendees from SANS Boston 2009 had this to say:

In the 19 years I've been in the business and countless training, Eric Cole is by far the best instructor, both in teaching skills and content knowledge that I've ever seen.
- Sara Mach, BCBSMA

MGT512 - I started the week with a weak IT background, and now feel that I can intelligently talk to some of the techies in my organization. I now definitely feel that I can ask technical folks the right questions. I will be turning in a training request for additional SANS classes.
- Lydia Starry, Dept. of Veteran's Affairs

The information presented is exactly what is needed today to defend systems from attacks.
- David DiGennaro, Metro Credit Union, said of John Strand and SEC504
