SANS Austin 2027: Hands-On Training in Downtown Austin

SANS Austin 2027 runs June 21-26 at the Omni Austin Downtown, in-person and online. Courses topics include web and cloud penetration testing, red team operations, security leadership, and GenAI application security, each taught by a practicing instructor with most courses aligned to a GIAC certification exam.

SANS Live Training

A Focused Lineup, Split Between Offense and Leadership

Courses at SANS Austin 2027 divide cleanly into two tracks, which makes it a practical training option for two very different people from the same organization. On the offensive side, there's training from foundational incident handling up through web and cloud penetration testing and full red team operations. On the leadership side, a set of LDR courses covers everything from a first management role to enterprise risk, governance, and building a SOC. A newcomer and a director could attend the same week and each spend it on exactly the right material.

The Omni Austin Hotel Downtown sits on San Jacinto at 8th, a couple of blocks from the live music on 6th Street and walking distance to the Texas State Capitol grounds.

Course Highlights:

  • Move from finding web vulnerabilities to proving their impact in Web App Penetration Testing and Ethical Hacking.
  • Run a full adversary emulation, start to finish, in Red Team Operations and Adversary Emulation.
  • Build the cross-domain judgment a new security manager needs in Security Leadership Essentials for Managers.
  • Secure a GenAI application end to end, from prompt injection to the data pipeline, in GenAI and LLM Application Security.
