This listing offers one pricing option: a single-user license for the FOR610 malware analysis course. You buy it per person, so each learner needs their own license. Pricing is fixed under a contract for that one unit, and the quantity ties directly to the number of individual users you enroll. There are no tiers, instance sizes, or usage-based add-ons to choose from. To cover more people, you increase the number of single-user licenses you purchase.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What does one single-user license cover, and what training format do I get with it?
One license covers one named individual taking the FOR610 malware analysis course. Each learner needs their own license. SANS offers course formats including self-paced OnDemand, Live Online, and In-Person sessions, with hands-on labs. Confirm the specific format tied to this license with the vendor before you enroll.
How do I buy training for a whole team under this per-user model?
Cost scales with headcount. You purchase one single-user license for each person you enroll. There are no team or site licenses in this listing. Organizations training multiple people can also explore the SANS Voucher Program, which offers bulk purchasing and a central account to manage funds and enrollments.
Does one license include the GIAC certification exam or ongoing course access?
The listing prices a single-user license for the course itself. GIAC certification is a separate item you are not required to complete with training. OnDemand access typically runs for a set period, often four months, with extensions available. Confirm exam bundles and access length directly with the vendor before purchase.
