SANS supports the cyber security community through the provision of world-leading training, certification, skills development programmes and through a vast array of free resources.
In addition, we have created a networking group for CISOs and senior security professionals.
Our aim is to help ease the pressure of working as a security decision-maker by providing an environment in which ideas and lessons-learned can be shared amongst a peer group of influencers and thought leaders.
The network is open exclusively to security leaders at the highest level and connects a unique group of professionals who have the appetite and the authority to make a meaningful difference. By sharing ideas and lessons learnt from a wide variety of industries, the SANS CISO Network brings members together to influence our digital future and make the world a safer place.
The SANS CISO Network is led by Professor Ciaran Martin.
Our SANS CISO Network platform, a SANS security checked and trusted site, is available exclusively to SANS CISO Network members only.

The platform is built to streamline communication within the community, offer easy access to content that will support the growth of our member's technical and management skills, provide comprehensive tools and highlight trends to enhance an organisation's security posture.
