Is this the same class that was offered back in August?
Yes, it's the same class, but it has been polished and refined.
What hardware will be required for the class?
Students will need a laptop that is capable of running a 64-bit VM with at least 2GB RAM allocated to the VM. (3GB RAM or more for the VM is highly recommended).
PLEASE NOTE! Just because your laptop has a 64-bit processor does NOT necessarily mean that you can run 64-bit VMs. Your 64-bit processor must support virtualization and virtualization must be enabled in the BIOS.
What do students need to do prior to class?
Students should ensure that their laptop is fully capable of running a 64-bit VM by downloading the Security Onion ISO image and verifying that it runs AND installs in their VM. Please see our Installation guide:
