BETHESDA, Md., Jan. 30, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- SANS today announced SANS CyberCon 2013, an online training event, April 22 – 27, 2013. This one-of-a-kind training event brings SANS' top instructors teaching SANS' top courses right to your computer.  No travel required!

Here's what SANS CyberCon alumni from 2012's inaugural event are saying:

"CyberCon was the perfect solution for me.  Because it was virtual I was able to attend class the first day without having to cancel a weekend getaway.  Also, since I was paying for this myself not having to cover travel was huge," said Mark Dirks with Steptoe & Johnson LLP.

"Virtual training allows me to sit in my own comfy chair, wearing my comfiest clothes, while being exposed to some of the best thinking in the industry.  Plus, there's no exhausting or costly travel!" said Robin Norris with EMC.
