Fresh faces of GSE candidates at SANS Network Security 2011
Well SANS Network Security 2011 is nearly upon us. The huge event, the GSE practical,that consumed a hefty chunk of my life last year is about to do the same to another embattled batch of GSE candidates.
Two of the people I know that have proudly public announced their assault on the GSE exam are Ash* and Dennis I wish them, and their mysterious other exam mates, the very best of luck.
Both will be facilitators after taking the two day GSE hands-on lab; Dennis will be the happy face at the back of the class Forensics 610: Reverse-Engineering Malware: Hands-On Analysis Tools and Techniques with Lenny Zeltser and Ash will Rob Lee’s whipping boy in Forensics 508: Advanced Computer Forensic Analysis and Incident Response
Other than personal drive to pass the GSE, SANS and the GIAC folks GSE qualification has been voted:
GIAC GSE Awarded Best Professional Certification Program by SC Magazine 2011

It’s fantastic to be among the few to have achieved the qualification, so why not line it up for your next goal in 2012?
*As Ash is from the far north Australia, he will be hard to understand. Be friendly – pat him on the head and hand a prawn fresh off the “Bar-bee” followed by six strong drinks.

HAHAHA I will take all free food and beverages!!
I am sure by the end of my 2 day ordeal I will be curled up in the corner of Rob Lee’s class rocking back and forth, a pat on the head is probably the best outcome I can hope for.
In terms of the GSE, I can’t wait! I am really excited!!
Thanks for all the help and encouragement on the lead up Chris .. I’m bound to let you down
Actually, this reminds me of the OSCP days, I was a mess at the end fo that exam, and will probably be the same at the end of this one! Expect random phone calls at all hours fo the night!
