Certification

PREPARING FOR A GIAC EXAM Nov 18 Written By Ryan Thompson TLDR I use a method to prepare for GIAC certifications that isn’t the quickest or the easiest but it builds reference material that’s useful during and after the exam. The two outputs of this method are a binder of your notes boiled down from the full course content and a set of GIAC course books that have been carefully tabbed for quick reference.

SANS SEC542 REVIEW PLEASE DO NOT ASK FOR MATERIALS FROM THE COURSE OR INSIGHT INTO THE QUESTIONS ON THE EXAM. TLDR This course did an excellent job of building a solid foundation around how protocols/services are intended to work before showing how to exploit them manually. While this course is not designed to produce world-class, cutting-edge red-teamers, it does lay the groundwork to begin that journey if you want to pursue it further.
