Hello TechNow Customers.  Thanks for your Business!  
  • Can a Single Hacker Bring Down the Internet? 
    Security and Law Enforcement experts believe that although many corporations and government entities have made significant strides 
    in securing their networks, a single hacker could still wreak havoc on the Internet and possibly even bring it down.  Such an incident, if it were ever to occur, could have huge ripple effects across the computer industry and the economy in general.  It could be done by amassing an army of "sleeper" nodes that the hacker "owns" and then using those sleepers to attack DNS infrastructure.  Or more simply, a person could cut the fiber optic wires that interconnect the Internet at their central hub.  Done at the right time and in the right places this could bring down the Internet for days or even weeks.

  • Getting Started with CISSP Certification   
    The CISSP Certification is the hottest Information Security Certification today.  Forget SANS.  Forget all the rest.  CISSP is it.  A simple query at Monster.com shows 150 job openings.  A similar search for SANS certified professionals produces only 5 job openings nation wide!  The CISSP  certification is managed by the internationally recognized and highly prestigious International Information Systems Security Certifications Consortium or (ISC)² for short.  The exam covers (ISC)²'s 10 Domains from the Common Body of Knowledge, which encompass the whole of information security.  To get CISSP certified do the following:    
     
    1. Ensure that you have 3 years of cumulative experience in (ISC)²'s 10 Domains of the Common Body of Knowledge.  
    2. Take TN-815: CISSP Boot Camp 
    3.
    Take and pass the CISSP Exam given by (ISC)² 

    Once completed, you're a CISSP!

  • TechNow Better than SANS?  
    How can our customers be wrong?  Customers who have taken TechNow's Hack and Defend  courses and gone to SANS agree that TechNow delivers the best Hands-on Hack and Defend courses around and offers the best Information Security Certification - the CISSP.  One customer said "Compared with the 3 other courses I've been to, this was clearly the best.  Your instructor knew far more than the others and was willing to go the extra mile so that I could understand."  Commenting on a SANS instructor another customer said, "Sure, he was a PHD and possibly a genius.  But he couldn't explain anything to me!"  TechNow offers the best Information Security courses you'll find in San Antonio, Austin or anywhere in the nation.
