Please join us the upcoming weeks for the following informative, free
SANS webcasts that you won't want to miss!

WEBCAST 1

SANS Special Webcast: Eric Cole's "Find and Fix Security Exposures before
You're in a Heap of Trouble"
WHEN: Tuesday, April 15, 2008 at 1:00 PM EDT (1700 UTC/GMT)
FEATURING: Dr. Eric Cole
http://www.sans.org/info/25583
Sponsored By: Core Security http://www.coresecurity.com/

Please join Eric Cole for a discussion of how to keep your information
systems in check as the vulnerability landscape rolls out around you
with this free webcast: "Find and Fix Security Exposures before You're
in a Heap of Trouble"

During the webcast, Eric will examine the technologies available for
assessing both the security of your network systems and the
effectiveness of the defenses meant to protect them.

WEBCAST 2

Tool Talk Webcast: A Blueprint for Successful NAC Deployments
WHEN: Wednesday, April 16, 2008 at 1:00 PM EDT (1700 UTC/GMT)
FEATURING: John Curry

Sponsored By: StillSecure http://www.stillsecure.com/

This webinar will discuss the challenges associated with NAC deployments
and provide organizations with a blueprint on how to cost-effectively
take advantage of this critical technology. Learn first hand how your
organization can benefit from this ground-breaking technology.

WEBCAST 3

SANS Special Webcast: Log Management Part II: Real-Time Event Management
WHEN: Thursday, April 17, 2008 at 1:00 PM EDT (1700 UTC/GMT)
FEATURED SPEAKERS: Dave Shackleford and Sunil Bhargava
http://www.sans.org/info/25588
Sponsored By: Intellitactics, Inc. http://www.intellitactics.com/int/

This webcast discusses how logs and event correlation should be managed
for compliance purposes and how auditors, working closely with security
and operations teams, can help develop processes that leverage logging
and event data to measure the effectiveness of their controls.

WEBCAST 4

SANS Special Webcast: Monthly Series: Security Insights with Dr. Eric Cole"
This month's topic: DLP
WHEN: Tuesday, April 22, 2008 at 1:00 PM EDT (1700 UTC/GMT)
FEATURING: Dr. Eric Cole
http://www.sans.org/info/25593
Sponsored By: Code Green Networks http://www.codegreennetworks.com/

Cyber security is all about reducing risk to critical assets. Protecting
and controlling data flow is a critical part of an organizations
security arsenal. Therefore data loss prevention would seem like a
perfect solution for reducing risk. However, just because a product is
called a data loss prevention solution, does not necessarily mean that
it properly reduces risk. Before purchasing or deploying a solution it
is critical to understand the key risks you are trying to reduce and
make sure the solution is the most cost effective way to reduce risk.
This talk will provide insight into what product features are most
valuable and which solutions should be avoided. To accomplish this it
will provide a detail understanding of the landscape and the best way
to protect data at an organization. Register now for this free webcast!

WEBCAST 5

Analyst Webcast: Security and Performance on Converged Networks
WHEN: Thursday April 24, 2008 at 1:00 PM EDT (1700 UTC/GMT)
FEATURED SPEAKERS: Dave Shackleford and Karl Schaub
http://www.sans.org/info/25603
Sponsored By: NIKSUN http://www.niksun.com/

Events from security and monitoring devices fire off an unmanageable
number of alarms with no way of telling how they're related, or how they
impact performance. As networks converge their video, voice and data
traffic over IP networks, these alarms will only increase, while
providing less visibility into what set them off. This Webcast discusses
what will be needed of security monitoring tools as these data, voice,
video convergence becomes ubiquitous.

WEBCAST 6

SANS Special Webcast: How to Stop Serious Threats from Evading Detection
***This is a Pre-Recorded Webcast***
WHEN: Available, Monday, April 28, 2008 at 1:00 PM EDT (1730 UTC/GMT)
FEATURING: Amit Yoran
http://www.sans.org/info/27144
Sponsored By: NetWitness http://www.netwitness.com/

Many of today's network threats are evading detection by your perimeter
defenses - whether you know it or not. That's because most
organizations have developed an over-reliance upon perimeter-based,
network-layer focused defenses. The flawed assumption is that deployed
network countermeasures will have signatures or profile-based
foreknowledge of a given threat. As proven through numerous serious
security breaches over the last few years, however, most signature and
log-file-based security solutions are already entirely obsolete.

WEBCAST 7

Tool Talk Webcast: Staying on Top of the SANS Top 20 with CORE IMPACT
WHEN: Tuesday, April 29, 2008 at 1:00 PM EDT (1700 UTC/GMT)
FEATURING: Anthony Alves
http://www.sans.org/info/25608
Sponsored By: Core Security http://www.coresecurity.com/

The 2007 "SANS Top 20 Internet Security Risks" report makes it clear
that attackers can now circumvent many traditional countermeasures, so
simply **implementing** countermeasures is no longer enough. In fact,
short of experiencing a breach, the only way to really know your
security posture is by continually testing the defenses you've worked
so hard to put in place.

Please join Core Security Technologies to learn how regular,
commercial-grade penetration testing provides unmatched visibility into
your true security posture.

WEBCAST 8

SANS Special Webcast: The Little Hybrid Web Worm That Could
***Previously scheduled for 3/6/08***
WHEN: Wednesday, April 30, 2008 at 1:00 PM EDT (1700 UTC/GMT)
FEATURING: Billy Hoffman
http://www.sans.org/info/24614
Sponsored By: HP http://www.hp.com/

This webcast examines the possibility of hybrid web worms which use
several methods to overcome the limitations of current web worms.
Specifically the authors examine how a hybrid web worm: mutates itself
to evade defenses; updates itself with new attack vectors while in the
wild; and finds and exploits targets regardless of whether they are
client web browsers or web servers.
