  • Live lab exercises
  • Bonus sessions covering the latest cyber topics & techniques
  • Ideal preparation for a GIAC certification exam
  • Get the most out of your time. Dedicate one whole week to intensive learning so that you can get back to work and apply your new skills straight away
  • Explore a new city and see the sights alongside building your new skillset

These events are a great place to network with like-minded security professionals. You can expect an intense week of study accompanied by fun additional activities like NetWars and SANS@Night evening presentations.
