    Hi
    When I carry out a security audit I like to recommend security training to
    the recipient.  In addition to improving the security of an organisation it
    is a great way to get the network admins "on side" by having an independent
    body advise their management of the need for security training.  To this end
    I have added a training category of instructor lead courses to the website
    covering those topics I felt would be of use including:
    
    Intro to Security (I'm tempted to drop this item as there are so many
    courses on offer)
    Securing Operating Systems
    Database Security
    Intrusion Detection Systems
    Firewalls
    Incident Response
    Forensics
    VPNs
    Web Server Security
    Wireless Security (link under wireless for now)
    Pen Testing
    http://www.networkintrusion.co.uk
    Some of the pages have been there for a while and are fairly comprehensive.
    What I am asking is whether there are any key topics missing and more
    importantly whether there are any good courses that I have missed that list
    members can recommend, I think I have them pretty much covered with the main
    players in the training arena.
     I'm off to CanSecWest on Monday, but will update suitable recommendations
    on my return
    
    take care

    PS The site has changed somewhat, as  a few experts have offered to maintain
    a few of the categories.  One such example is Gary who has created the
    forensic tools pages, he's done an excellent job
    http://www.networkintrusion.co.uk/fortools.htm To this end I am moving away
    from the talisker handle to reflect the shared effort on the talisker site.
    I have had to throw up a few banners as the renewed popularity has pushed
    the bandwidth through the roof, I need to replenish my Visa before my wife
    see's it ;o)
