Mentor Bio:
Jim Clausing: Jim has over 25 years experience in the IT field (including system administration and security for most of that time). He has done research in parallel processing and distributed systems. For the last 12 years, he has focused primarily on network security including server hardening (primarily Unix/Linux), intrusion detection (host-and network-based), firewalls, perimeter defense, incident response, forensics and malware analysis. He holds the GIAC GCIA Gold, GCFA Gold, GREM Gold, GCIH, GCFW, GSIP, and GSOC, the CISSP, and Checkpoint's CCSA (now expired). He serves on the GIAC Advisory Board and the GIAC Board of Directors. In addition, Jim is a volunteer incident handler for the Internet Storm Center (isc.sans.org) and was a coauthor for the SANS Press book Securing Solaris 8 & 9 Using the Center for Internet Security Benchmark. He enjoys cycling and is an instrument-rated private pilot.

Jim has mentored the Security 502, 503, and 508 courses. In addition, he has taught numerous SANS Stay Sharp/STAR classes, the Security 601 Reverse-Engineering Malware, and Management 414 (SANS+S CISSP training) and is excited to bring Security 503, the SANS intrusion detection cours back to central Ohio.

Jim shares this about GIAC certifications and SANS Mentoring, "I've learned a lot from SANS courses, and the certifications are tangible proof of what I've learned. Plus, I've always found that I learn at least as much from attempting the cert as I do from the classes because the SANS/GIAC certs are the most demanding out there. I've gotten a lot out of my SANS certifications and this is an opportunity to give something back".
