SANS Offensive Operations

Through #35 hands-on labs, you will practice finding and exploiting vulnerabilities such as SQL injection, XSS, deserialization bugs, SSRF, and file inclusion, then communicate business impact to stakeholders. 🕸 Register here: go.sans.org/1wDt1I

Most vulnerabilities are buried in logic flaws, auth failures, and complex workflows. The new course #SEC543, co-authored by Ed Skoudis, Joshua Wright, Chris Davis, and Evan Booth, was built to help you uncover what automated scanners don't detect. 🪄 go.sans.org/LjSV2e

Need to start understanding C for Windows? We got you. This new #SEC670 poster by @jon__reiter breaks down core concepts from pointers to pitfalls. But here’s the real test: spot the 🐛 and earn your place in the Hall of Fame! May the source be with you 👊 sans.org/posters/introd…

Are you noticing your #tradecraft becoming less effective? Are your techniques getting #detected more often? What used to work doesn’t anymore. #SEC665 prepares you for what lies beneath the roots. 🌳 Take your next step: sans.org/cyber-security…

What does AI-enabled pen testing find on a codebase your team already cleared? @EdSkoudis and his team ran that experiment. Day one: 5 critical vulnerabilities. And he estimates 20-40x the current vuln volume is coming within the year. Full methodology: go.sans.org/7TWDpY

🚩 The #CTF in #SEC542 lets you apply the full, multi-stage web app pentest methodology across realistic offensive scenarios, giving you the trust to apply the same testing process on the apps you use at work. Check more about the enhanced CTF: go.sans.org/1wDt1I

What if AI didn’t replace you, but made you a better operator? The new course, #SEC543, teaches you how to use AI coding agents to analyze source code faster, go deeper, and find what others relying on traditional methods miss. 🦾 Register for Beta go.sans.org/LjSV2e

The threat landscape just changed — fast. Join us at SANS #AISummit (Apr 20–21) when Jacob Klein discusses how AI is enabling low-skill actors to scale, small teams to hit APT weight, and is reshaping real-world cyber ops. ➡️ sans.org/u/1CNB

Cloud breaches rarely start with zero-days... Learn how modern attackers abuse misconfigurations, tokens, and access paths in SEC588: Cloud Penetration Testing updates, and build the skills to close those doors for good. ☁️ Check out the update: sans.org/u/1Dip

🔐 Red teamers: build better tools with AI. Learn how to structure prompts, validate code, and create reliable security tooling. 📅 Apr 16 | 10AM–12PM ET 🔗 go.sans.org/PuSy2Y #RedTeam #Pentesting #AI #SEC565

The biggest AI risks aren’t in the model. Join us at SANS #AISummit (Apr 20-21) when Julie Davila uncovers hidden vulnerabilities in orchestration layers — and how old bug classes are driving new AI risks. ➡️ sans.org/u/1CNB

#SANS instructors don’t just teach, they bring real-world experience into the classroom. We're proud they're shaping the next generation of defenders and making cyber criminals miserable. 👏 Congrats to our #OffensiveOps crew: Jason Ostrom, Chris Elgee, Brian Almond & Doug McKee
