Re: SAN's Challenge

I tried to go to a SANS training here in Florida, but it just costs too damn much. For the course I wanted to take, I was looking at upwards of $5000. Work wouldn't pay for it. Its too bad.

--Three US Cyber Challenges To Be Announced May 29
This story won't come out until a week from Friday when three national
cyber games will be announced at a Center for Strategic and
International Studies (CSIS) luncheon. The competitions are part of a
huge talent search and talent development program to find and nurture
the young people who have the skills to become the next generation of
great security professionals) We are telling you about it early because
we need your help. One of the three competitions is a very cool capture
the flag game in several layers. But we are trying to agree on a name
for the SANS competition. Please pick the one, two or three you like
best and send them back to apaller@sans.org. Thanks in advance.
