MGT415 will provide students with an introduction to thinking practically about risk management and teach the skills necessary to perform risk assessments. Not only will students learn foundational concepts of risk, but they will be given templates and tools that they can take back to their office immediately after class to perform risk assessments. Throughout the class students will learn introductory concepts of Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) that they can use to mature their cyber security programs.

Learn the key lessons and the roadmap to build a mature awareness program that your workforce will love and that has an impact you can measure. Apply models such as the BJ Fogg Behavior Model, AIDA Marketing funnel, and Golden Circle, and learn about the Elephant vs. the Rider.

With lessons from those who have been in the trenches for years, this hands-on 2-day course will help you define, implement and sharpen your organization's cyber defense, and show you how to implement those tactics using the industries best free and open source tools!

For security professionals, the course enables you to see how to put the controls in place in your existing network though effective and widespread use of cost-effective automation. For auditors, CIOs, and risk officers, the course is the best way to understand how you will measure whether the Top 20 controls are effectively implemented. It closely reflects the Top 20 Critical Security Controls.

There are three huge reasons why SEC474: Building a Healthcare Security and Compliance Program is important to all healthcare organizations. First, the problem of healthcare security is big and only getting bigger. Adversaries are becoming more sophisticated in their approach and more focused on healthcare because of the value of the sector's data. Healthcare organizations of all sizes and types are concerned that the lack of properly trained security professionals is resulting in IT systems that are insecure and that they may be out of compliance and face steep fines. Second, fines under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) are only getting bigger. Recent years have seen many million-dollar+ fines levied against healthcare organizations for not being "HIPAA Compliant." Recent trends show that this situation is getting worse, not better. Third, HIPAA compliance regulations don't actually tell you how to attain "HIPAA Compliance." With absent specific guidance, organizations are left to figure out these challenges on their own. This course has been designed to help organizations with concrete guidance to build a secure and compliant environment.

SEC534: Secure DevOps: A Practical Introduction explains the fundamentals of DevOps and how DevOps teams can build and deliver secure software. You will learn DevOps principles, practices, and tools and how they can be leveraged to improve the reliability, integrity, and security of systems.

This course teaches practical open-source intelligence (OSINT) analysis and automation techniques. You will learn tradecraft tips, tactics, techniques, and procedures based on real-world examples that will enable you to carry out in-depth OSINT analysis of groups, image and video verification, and OSINT operations security, as well as understand the foundations of automating OSINT with Python.

SEC541 will introduce you to Amazon Web Services (AWS) to help you search out and identify threats in your cloud environment. We will look at the most common threat techniques used against AWS environments, what their characteristics are, and how to detect them. Then we'll explore ways to improve the architecture of your environment. The course is an introduction to CloudWatch, CloudTrail, GuardDuty, and Security Hub, among other services.

SANS SEC552 teaches students how to apply modern attack techniques, inspired by real-world bug bounty case studies. The course will teach pen testers how to discover and responsibly disclose tricky, logic-based application flaws that automated scanning tools do not reveal.

SEC554 will teach you the essential topics of blockchain and smart contract technology. The course takes a detailed look at the cryptography and transactions behind blockchain and provides the hands-on training and tools to deploy, audit, scan, and exploit blockchain and smart contract assets.

SEC564 is a 2-day intensive course that enables students to plan and manage Red Team Exercises, including building and executing a adversary emulation. Students will learn the tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) used by the adversary to create an adversary emulation plan, leveraging MITRE ATT&CK, then emulate the adversary during multiple labs.

SEC580 will teach you how to apply the incredible capabilities of the Metasploit Framework in a comprehensive penetration testing and vulnerability assessment regimen. In this course, you will learn how Metasploit can fit into your day-to-day penetration testing assessment activities. You'll gain an in-depth understanding of the Metasploit Framework far beyond how to exploit a remote system. You'll also explore exploitation, post-exploitation reconnaissance, token manipulation, spear-phishing attacks, and the rich feature set of the Meterpreter, a customized shell environment specially created for exploiting and analyzing security flaws.

With SEC582, you will master performing packet analysis through TShark and learn how to solve real-world problems through 19 different labs, demos, and challenges. This is the most in-depth, hands-on packet analysis course available through SANS.

SEC583 is a one-day, lab-heavy course designed to teach the powerful skill of how to craft and manipulate packets through the use of many hands-on activities. This skill can be used to test policies, behaviors, and configurations and will also provide deeper understanding of TCP/IP and application protocols.

SEC584 will perform a deep dive into defending key infrastructure deployment components, focusing on containerization and orchestration exploits. Students will be thrust directly into detailed issues related to misconfiguration and known attack patterns and will learn how to properly harden and protect against these exploits.
