SANS at Infosecurity Europe 2009

SANS    
SANS has partnered with Infosecurity Europe to offer a paid-for, one day course in Cutting-Edge Hacking Techniques.

SANS SEC517: Cutting-Edge Hacking Techniques
Tuesday 28th April 2009

(6 CPE Credits): €749

Computer attackers continue their relentless march in improving their tools and techniques.

The simple scanning of yesteryear has given way to powerful suites of bundled, automated scanning and exploitation tools. Straightforward backdoors have evolved into powerful kernel-mode RootKits, manipulating the very hearts of our systems. Covert channels exfiltrate sensitive information and hash collision attacks are rapidly advancing, with your systems in the cross hairs. In all of these trends, thorough reconnaissance and deep subterfuge dominate the attackers' game.

If we don't keep up with their latest methods, our overall defenses and incident response practices will grow rusty. To help fight back, this action-packed one-day course describes these latest attack trends and what you can do to thwart the bad guys. In addition to detailed descriptions of how the attacks function, you'll get hands-on experience with the tools and their defenses.

This fast-paced, intermediate-to-advanced course is ideal for students who have taken a multi-day hacking course in the past (offered by other training organizations or SANS' own 504 or 560 courses) and are looking to update their understanding and skills. Also, if you are preparing for that final push on your GCIH certification, this session can help you brush up and refresh your knowledge of computer attacks before taking the exam.
