Full Description:
The recently expanded Auditing Track is the end product of the efforts of over one hundred skilled system, network and security administrators working with one common goal: to improve the state of information security. This track, like all SANS courses, is based on known and validated threats and vulnerabilities. These threats and vulnerabilities are explained based on validated information from real world situations that can be used to raise awareness within an organization and build an understanding of why auditing is important. From these threats and vulnerabilities, we build the countermeasures and defenses including instrumentation, metrics and auditing. The course begins with a high level introduction on methods and audit programs. It then takes you through all of the particulars of how you actually audit devices and IT systems ranging from firewalls and routers, all the way down to the underlying operating systems. You'll be able to use what you learn the day you get home. Four days out of the six days in the track will include hands-on exercises with the demonstrated tools on a live in-class network. Each student is invited to bring their own Windows 2000 or higher laptop for use during class. The hands-on exercises will allow you to experiment with the audit tools discussed in class and to actually perform audit functions against SANS-provided servers in class. A great audit is more than marks on a checklist; it is the understanding of the best practices, system analysis and forensics. Sign up for this course and experience the mix of theory and hands-on, pragmatic knowledge.
This track can be used to prepare for the GIAC Systems and Network Auditor (GSNA) certification.
