New Bootcamp program for 2010

Where : eBootcamp Web Page

Starting with 2011, the Bootcamp program was merged into the eBootcamp program - same content, some trainers, same still, but in remote approach, via a eLearning platform :

Why

• you cannot afford to dedicate a whole week for traveling and training, away from your job / family
• there is no Bootcamp location somewhere next to you, but you have Internet access
• the eBootcamp is more flexible as time (when you can start) and program (only 4-5 hours per week)
• lower costs as no traveling, accommodation, etc costs are involved.

Where eBootcamp Web Page

1. Scanning Attacks
2. Floods
3. SIP digest leaking
4. Using PIKE to detect and prevent floods
5. Using return codes from authentication to identify scanning attacks
6. Implementing TLS and SRTP

All the knowledge that is transferred to you will be strongly backed up by practice sessions where you will get hands©\on experience in handling OpenSIPS SIP Server. The training is structured to be offer 50% \ 50% between the theoretical and practical sessions. Optionally, an certification exam, to proof the knowledge consolidation during the training, can be sustained on request after the end of the course.

What's new

1. Removal of the certification test in the last day of the training. Most people need to study before taking the test and having the test in the last day is counterproductive.
   1. Reduction in redundant themes and presentations. No presentation in this training takes more than 1 hour. The ones with more than 1 hour were split in 45 minute sections.
   2. BYOL format (Bring your own laptop). As of today most students have their own notebook with enough memory and disk space. Each student will make the training in a virtual machine in their own computer and take the VM ready to run back home
   3. Removal of any non-opensips related material such as Asterisk Integration, Wireshark, Sipsak and Sipp. (The old labs will be available as optional).
   4. Inclusion of the following new topics, SIP security, SIP Dialog Awareness and B2BUA.
   5. Removal of the preparation time on Monday. Most students actually arrive in the day before. Rarely, we have seen students arriving in the day of the training. This will open more time for the new topics.
