Howdy VAGUErants,

For those of you in education, SANS[1] has a program whereby a sponsoring 
institution can host one of their security courses, if a minimum enrollment is 
achieved ahead of time. Eligibility is limited to employees of K-12 and higher 
education. On another list, I asked (among other things) if anyone was 
interested in taking FOR558 ("Network Forensics") through such an arrangement, 
and thought I'd spam you with it too in case you're game; that message is 
below. I've also included Randy Marchany's ostensible response, wherein he 
announced that Virginia Tech will be hosting SEC542 ("Web App Penetration and 
Ethical Hacking").

(Pardon my cross-posting, if you happen to subscribe to EDUCAUSE Security.)


Cheers,

Subject: SANS FOR558: anyone hosting?

Hi folks,

I'm pretty keen to take SANS's FOR558 ("Network Forensics")[1] early in
2011, and before I go lining up a week in NYC or NOLA for one of their
training events, thought I'd ask if anyone's planning on hosting it on
their campus. (Or, perhaps, if there's enough interest that we should
consider running it here at UVM[2].)

I ask mainly because it was within a week or so of my full-price
enrollment in SEC560 at SANS2010 that Randy Marchany posted that VT was
offering it there at around $800. The SANS2010 conference was great --
I'd highly recommend going -- but savings in the training budget are
always appreciated.

Feel free to contact me off-list if you're eying FOR558 (and include
"FOR558" in the subject so I can find these messages easily); if we hit
the threshold (100? 150? I forget) by the close of business next Friday
(1630EST 20101217), I'll look into whether we can host up here. I'll
also play Cruise Director Julie McCoy and say, "Please indicate in your
email whether you've always wanted to come to Vermont for the skiing, or
the summer activities."


Cheers,
