Fill the gaps in your security knowledge at SANS London April 2019

Promo As data thieves and hackers become more numerous, more inventive and more destructive, learning to protect themselves against cybercrime is ever higher on the list of companies' priorities.

SANS London 2019 from 8-13 April promises to provide the training that security professionals at all levels need to defend their organisations.

Attendees are assured they will be able to put their newfound skills into practice immediately.

The choices include:

• Open-source intelligence (OSINT) gathering and analysis
  How to find and analyse internet data, focusing on the techniques used by threat intelligence analysts, private investigators, insurance claims investigators and law enforcement officers. Hands-on labs will explore the live internet and dark web.
