Incident Response: Black Hat Edition by Mandiant
As the sophistication and threats caused by malicious attacks continue to increase, Mandiant has raised the bar of effective detection, response, and remediation by introducing our Incident Response (IR) class. This two-day Special Edition class has been specifically designed for information security professionals and analysts who respond to computer security incidents. It is designed as an operational course, using case studies and hands-on lab exercises to ensure attendees are gaining experience in each topic area.

Understanding Stealth Malware by Joanna Rutkowska and Alexander Tereshkin
The course will provide attendees with an in-depth understanding of how advanced stealth malware works, how it interacts with the operating system, underlying hardware and network. Attendees will have a chance to run, analyze and experiment with several previously unpublished samples of proof-of-concept rootkits, similar to Deepdoor, FireWalk, Blue Pill and others. The malware samples will be created from scratch (and in a slightly different way) exclusively for the use during the training, as the original implementations can not be used due to NDA restrictions.
Simpler stealth malware will also be briefly covered as well as approaches to its detection, so that participants get a clear understanding what advantages the more sophisticated malware offers to attackers.

Building and Testing Secure Web Applications by Aspect Security
Training developers and software testers in application security offers one of the highest returns on investment of any security investment by eliminating vulnerabilities at the source. Aspect's Building and Testing Secure Web Applications training raises developer awareness of application security issues and provides examples of 'what to do' and 'what not to do.' The class is lead by an experienced application security practitioner and is delivered in a very interactive manner.
