Chris is awesome! He's excellent at answering questions and giving real-world examples. I'm very grateful to have been able to take this class and will highly recommend to peers of mine that they take SANS classes taught by Chris, as I know they'd learn a ton from him as well! Thank you, SANS, for another excellent course!”
