Stay Ahead of Tomorrow’s Cybersecurity Challenges with SANS’ Latest Hands-On Training
BETHESDA, Md., Sept. 24, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — SANS Institute, the global leader in cybersecurity training and certifications, has released new and updated courses designed to arm cyber professionals with the tools and skills needed to combat the sophisticated threats that 2025 will bring. These future-focused training programs are designed for individuals and organizations to address the critical need for more advanced defensive strategies in a threat landscape that continues to shift and change on a daily basis.
“The organizations that thrive in 2025 will be those that proactively address cybersecurity risks at all levels—through cutting-edge technical training for practitioners, executive guidance, and cross-departmental awareness,” said Jeremy Rabson, GIAC General Manager.
For both cybersecurity professionals and business leaders, the risk of becoming a front-page headline due to a cyber breach is no longer a distant possibility—it’s an imminent threat. Staying on top of new battle-tested tools and techniques has become essential to outpacing adversaries. In an environment where only 26% of organizations report having a consistently applied incident response plan (IBM 2021 Cyber Resilient Organization Study), there is a critical need for hands-on skills that ensure a faster, more effective response to incidents and vulnerabilities.
“The organizations that thrive in 2025 will be those that proactively address cybersecurity risks at all levels—through cutting-edge technical training for practitioners, executive guidance, and cross-departmental awareness,” said Jeremy Rabson, GIAC General Manager.
The average cost of a data breach in 2023 rose to a staggering $4.45 million, according to IBM Security and the Ponemon Institute, and 54% of organizations admit they lack sufficient visibility into the vulnerabilities of their supply chain (World Economic Forum’s 2024 Global Cybersecurity Outlook Report). This showcases the need for both individuals and businesses to refine their skills and practices to prevent, detect, and respond to attacks that could cripple their operations.
“SANS has long established its legacy of providing cutting-edge training that empowers cybersecurity professionals to truly stay ahead, not just keep pace, with emerging threats,” said Rabson. “This launch is no different; we’re offering updated courses in Cyber Defense, Digital Forensics and Incident Response (DFIR), and Cloud Security that directly solve the challenges that practitioners and organizations will face in the coming year.”
