SANS training is well-known for being relevant and pragmatic. Our faculty has proven they understand the challenges you face on a daily basis. Their real-world experience increases the practical value of the course material. Here is what our attendees have had to say about their SANS training experience:
"As a digital forensics analyst, I am occasionally called upon to provide more than static/behavioral analysis of suspected malware. This course (FOR610) is excellent in providing ADD'L skills in that area." - Steven Saunders, Navy Cyber Defense Operations Command
"This course (FOR408) introduced me to a lot of new tools that will make my job easy (some I had never heard of)" - Irvin Spurs, DOJ/FBI
"The instructor's examples of various tools and supplemental articles/websites are tremendously helpful!" - Paul Puskorius, The College Board
"Excellent instructor makes any material 'fun' to learn, even the 'not so exciting' material." - Rick Desnoyers, Flagstar Bank
"The best training, I've ever been to!" - Bobby Mason, HP Enterprise Sevices
Our campus for this event, the Hilton Virginia Beach Oceanfront, is ten seconds from the Virginia Beach boardwalk and ocean front and is right next to the Neptune's Park and the Shoppes at 31 Ocean. See the location page for a list of courses that are being held in the Hilton Garden Inn Virginia Beach Oceanfront, which is a five-minute walk away.
The hotel is right on the north end of one of America's favorite Boardwalks, constructed in 1888 and a favorite during Victorian times. The current version is three miles long and perfect for strolling, biking, or rollerblading. The Boardwalk is lined with shops and restaurants with plenty of ramps to get to the beach. With access to 11 top-rated golf courses, off-shore fishing opportunities where Virginia Beach is known as the "Fish highway," children's activities for both teens and younger children (including a Where the Wild Things Are attraction), -- that is Virginia Beach! Virginia Beach is also home to the Virginia Aquarium, which features the fish of the Chesapeake Bay area and much more, including komodo dragons and whale watching boat trips. Whether you enjoy kayaking, swimming, bird watching, hiking, fishing, playing golf or shopping and dining, Virginia Beach has it all. What a great location for your training!
