This listing offers one pricing option: a single-user license for the FOR577 - LINUX IR & Threat Hunting course. You buy it per user, in the quantity of licenses you need. Each license covers one individual. Pricing scales by the number of user licenses you purchase, so training more people means buying more licenses. There are no tiers, instance sizes, or usage add-ons — just the single-user unit repeated as needed.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What does one single-user license cover, and can I share it across a team?
Each license covers one named individual. The course material is tied to that person and is not meant to be shared or reused by others. To train more people, you buy one license per person. This applies to the FOR577 - LINUX IR & Threat Hunting course.
If I need to train five people, how does the cost work?
Cost scales directly with the number of user licenses. Five people means five single-user licenses. There are no tiers or volume steps in this listing, so the per-user unit simply repeats for each additional person you enroll.
What training formats or hands-on labs are included with a FOR577 license?
The FOR577 course covers Linux incident response and threat hunting with hands-on labs. SANS delivers courses through self-paced OnDemand, live online, and in-person formats. Exact format and access details depend on how you register; confirm the included format with the vendor before purchase.
