Description:
RSA® Conference is an ideal event for organizations that deploy, develop, or investigate data security or cryptography products.
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 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.
The RSA® Conference brings together IT professionals, developers, policy makers, industry leaders, and academics to share information and exchange ideas on technology trends and best practices in identity theft, hacking, cyber-terrorism, biometrics, network forensics, perimeter defense, secure web services, encryption, and related topics.
Don't miss all the interaction and Pre-Conference learning opportunities from this year's event! We look forward to seeing you in San Francisco February 26 - March 2.
