Bejtlich Teaching New Class at Black Hat in July

I'm pleased to announce I will teach two sessions of a brand-new two day class at Black Hat USA 2013 this summer. The new class is Network Security Monitoring 101. From the overview:

Is your network safe from intruders? Do you know how to find out? Do you know what to do when you learn the truth? If you are a beginner, and need answers to these questions, Network Security Monitoring 101 (NSM101) is the newest Black Hat course for you.

This vendor-neutral, open source software-friendly, reality-driven two-day event will teach students the investigative mindset not found in classes that focus solely on tools. NSM101 is hands-on, lab-centric, and grounded in the latest strategies and tactics that work against adversaries like organized criminals, opportunistic intruders, and advanced persistent threats.

Best of all, this class is designed *for beginners*: all you need is a desire to learn and a laptop ready to run a few virtual machines.

Instructor Richard Bejtlich has taught over 1,000 Black Hat students since 2002, and this brand new, 101-level course will guide you into the world of Network Security Monitoring.

Black Hat has three remaining price points and deadlines for registration.

  • "Regular" ends 31 May

  • "Late" ends 24 July

  • "Onsite" starts at the conference

Seats are filling -- it pays to register early!

If you have any questions about the class, please leave a comment here or contact me via Twitter at @taosecurity. Thank you.

I'm also talking with Black Hat about teaching at their Istanbul and Seattle events later this year.

Hello Anonymous,

Do you think that you might be offering this course in the Metro DC/NoVa area sometime this year?
No, I don't plan to teach the class outside of Black Hat.
