The IT and information security training body SANS is hosting its largest training event outside the USA at the Grand Connaught Rooms in London’s West End. Some 16 specialist courses, most with an associated certification are led by SANS’ instructors. Running from Saturday, November 15, to Monday, November 24, 2014, the courses offer an opportunity to network and socialise with hundreds of fellow IT security executives, plus SANS instructors. The body offers savings of up to 250 euros on tuition fees offered for payment by Wednesday, October 1.
