Course Overview:
What a great course that is slightly misnamed! SANS does a great job offering tough security certifications. The GSEC certifications may be labeled Security Essentials, but covers much of the subject matter of CISSP! This course does more than just cover the basics. TechNow takes the time to give the student hands on labs to exemplify an objective. We take nine days as with all of our courses that prepare the student for the challenging and highly respected SANS certification. GSEC sets the foundation for your security career and sets the expectation of comprehension much higher than Security+ and more on par with CISSP.
This course prepares students to take GCIH, GCIA, GCWN, GXPN, and GCFW courses.
Attendees to TN-929: GIAC Security Essentials (GSEC) Training Course will receive TechNow approved course materials and expert instruction.
