More people have taken the SANS Security Essentials course than any other information security course in the world and the numbers are rapidly growing. Today, security is so complex that each of us must realize there is a lot we do not know and understand. SANS Security Essentials has been developed to fill these gaps. A few people have filled notable roles in developing the course, though it is also the product of several hundred security practitioners in the defensive community working together, and it continues to evolve to meet the needs of the students. 
The day is coming when it will be hard to be considered a credible information security practitioner without holding a GIAC Security Essentials Certification. This book is a positive step forward in the evolution of the program. We care about your experiences, what works for you, what does not and the things you know that we do not, so do not be a stranger. 
SANS Security Essentials will teach you the language and underlying theory of computer security; and at the same time you will learn the essential up-to-the-minute knowledge and skills required for effective performance if you are given the responsibility for security systems and/or organizations.
