As the unfortunate realities of the economy still plague us, there's more of a need than ever for quality training without the expense of travel. SANS has responded with vLive. As they describe it, "SANS vLive! leverages webcast flexibility and the latest online technology to enhance students' learning experience. SANS vLive! live Webcasts are scheduled once or twice a week for 3 hours, depending on course requirements, and feature Elluminate Live!™, a collaboration of realtime, interactive online tools to bring quality security education direct to your desktop." So what does that mean? There's not just a flashy online version of PPT decks... you get real interaction with the instructors live on your own desktop from the comfort of your own home. Up for grabs this month to one top contributor was a free seat in either:

- SEC504: Hacker Techniques, Exploits & Incident Handling  (starting 11/9) taught by Bryce Galbraith and John Strand

- SEC542: Web App Penetration Testing and Ethical Hacking (starting 12/6) taught by Kevin Johnson and Seth Misenar

The winner this month should come as no surprise, because he was chosen last month but couldn't take advantage of it. This month he accepted and chose SEC542. So congrats goes to EH-Net member Jesus Oquendo AKA sil. Congrats. Although you may not have won, there's plenty of seats still available in this unique course offering.
