BETHESDA, Md., July 23, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- SANS Institute, the global leader in cyber security training and certifications, today announced SANS Northern VA Fall – Reston 2019 (#SANSReston) taking place September 30 - October 5. Course topics to include cyber defense, ethical hacking, penetration testing, SIEM, digital forensics and incident response, threat hunting, and security management. Included among the course line-up is SEC555: SIEM with Tactical Analytics.

According to SEC555 course author and instructor Justin Henderson (@SecurityMapper), "Detection involves more than data collection. It is about collecting and then analyzing meaningful data. The analysis is akin to putting together a puzzle and then telling a story about what the combined pieces portray. Join me in Reston where I will demonstrate how to automate this process by training individuals on how to identify important logs and how to better tell a story with them."
