What is SANS policy on press passes?
SANS requires the press to submit in a proposal beforehand about the article they wish to write along with proof of credentials. Only writers or editors will be accepted and freelance writers must provide some proof of their assignment on letterhead from the publication’s editor. Publishers and salespeople will not be given press passes. Seats are limited and a $500 refundable deposit is required at registration. To receive back your deposit the actual article must be submitted to SANS and feature a direct link to our web site at www.sans.org. Books will not be given with the course but can be purchased at our bookstore. Distribution of press passes are at the discretion of SANS and can be done by contacting Brian Correia either by e-mail at brian@sans.org or via fax at 703-830-0520.
