.@secgreene says there’s no instructor bench in the industry that matches SANS. The SANS Certified Instructor points to experience, knowledge, and dedication across the instructor core, instructors still working the problems they teach, able to answer your specific question.

Past day five or six, most participants had no real plan left. They were counting on outside help that assumes the damage is contained to one area. As Mark Bristow puts it, “that’s not gonna happen when the hurricane is everywhere.”
