Plan to start providing training and seminars in my free time. If you are interested please answer these questions (you can either respond here in comments or use this form for private communication http://www.dumpanalysis.org/contact):
- Are you interested in on-site training, prefer traveling or attending webinars?
- Are you interested in software trace analysis as well?
- What specific topics are you interested in?
- What training level (beginner, intermediate, advanced) are you interested in? (please provide an example, if possible)
Additional topics of expertise that can be integrated into training include Source Code Reading and Analysis, Debugging, Windows Architecture, Device Drivers, Troubleshooting Tools Design and Implementation, Multithreading, Deep Down C and C++, x86 and x64 Assembly Language Reading.
Looking forward to your responses. Any suggestions are welcome.
