Well here we are at the end of another year. Just like 2005, December brings us to our largest prize of the year. In response to a number of security pros' desire to take SANS training and GIAC cert exams without the travel expenses of attending a SANS event, The SANS Institute offers On Demand. This month's winner will not only get 6 months of access but also a voucher for a free certification exam for the 1 course of their choice:

SECURITY 401: SANS Security Essentials taught by Eric Cole (Course and Exam = $3295)
SECURITY 504: Hacker Techniques, Exploits & Incident Handling taught by our very own Ed Skoudis (Course and Exam = $3195)
