Microsoft TechNet Security Webcast Week:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/webcasts/default.asp?frame=true
In the UK, Microsoft is doing additional security training (free!),
aimed at the local audience. For folks in the UK, the following FREE
events are on offer.
1. There are 2 TechNet evening events covering Patch Management.
The first is in Birmingham on the evening of 10 December:
http://www.microsoft.co.uk/events/MsEStdEventDisp.asp?params=fHx8fDB8bXNldmVudHN8MHww&EventID=7295
These offer free beer and pizza and a good overview of SUS and SMS for
Patching. The presenter in Reading will be a MCS consultant, while I'm
giving the event in Birmingham. This is level 200 content.
2. Another TechNet evening - Windows 2003 Server Troubleshooting &
Disaster Recovery - Dec 16th.

Don't know who is giving this.
3. On-Line security web cast: Patch Management Level 200
https://msevents-eu.microsoft.com/cui/EventDetail.aspx?culture=en-GB&eventid=118741837
This will be a shortened version of the TechNet event - cut down to fit
inside an hour. While this is aimed at the UK audience, I can't see that
anyone would mind other folks joining in. NB: this is level 200 content
with limited demos - it probably should be entry level material for most
people on this list. But it might serve a good introduction for your
managers, etc!
4. On-Line security web cast: Moving from NT4 to Server 2003
https://msevents-eu.microsoft.com/cui/EventDetail.aspx?culture=en-GB&eventid=118741839
This will be given by Dave Sayers - a great MCS consultant and a good
speaker. Plus more free beer and pizza.
There will be additional security content in the new year, although I do
not have dates or venues.
And did I mention this was all free?
