Windows Security (new!)

Security is everyone's foremost concern these days. We've extensively researched the security enhancements in Windows Vista to bring you three new security-related seminars.

SEC230: Windows Vista Cryptography Next Generation (CNG) for Developers new!
SEC250: Windows Vista Security Internals new!

Windows Internals

Our Windows Internals seminars are the closest you can get to the operating system without source access! Learn the components of Windows, how they interact and execute to implement the functions of an operating system, and the implications for application and driver development, debugging, and system administration.

INT150: Windows Internals Essentials for System Administrators and Support Personnel
INT151: Windows Internals Essentials for Application Programmers
INT201: Windows Internals for Server 2003, Windows XP, and Windows 2000
INT211: Windows Troubleshooting and Memory Dump Analysis
INT221: Windows Internals, Troubleshooting, and Memory Dump Analysis
INT250: Windows Vista Internals new!
INT255: Windows Vista Internals update new!


Windows Troubleshooting/Debugging Seminars

You will learn how to apply the principles of operating system internals to general system troubleshooting, memory dump analysis and live debugging. Offered in three varieties: One designed for driver writers (with emphasis on live debugging, and on problems that may occur in your own code); one designed for support personnel (for correctly identifying failing components, but not debugging to the source line level); and a version of the latter that's integrated with our Windows Internals seminar.

DRV211: Windows Debugging and Memory Dump Analysis for Driver Writers
INT211: Windows Troubleshooting and Memory Dump Analysis
INT221: Windows Internals, Troubleshooting, and Memory Dump Analysis
 

Windows Device Driver Seminars

We've been writing drivers for the NT family since literally before Windows NT was released. We still offer seminars on a wider variety of driver models than anyone else in the industry (indeed, more than the rest of the industry combined).

DRV101: Windows Driver Concepts
DRV150: Windows Internals Essentials for Device Driver Writers
DRV201: Core Windows Driver Model Device Drivers
DRV205: Windows Pseudodrivers and Operating System Interfaces
DRV211: Windows Driver Debugging and Memory Dump Analysis
DRV221: Windows Network Drivers
DRV222: Windows Network Drivers for NDIS 6
DRV231: Windows Drivers for IEEE1394 Devices
DRV232: Windows Drivers for USB Devices
DRV241: Windows Drivers for Video Display Devices
DRV251: Windows Drivers for Storage/SCSI Miniport Devices
DRV264: Windows 64-bit Driver Migration and Debugging
DRV274: Windows Driver Debugging and Memory Dump Analysis for Itanium Systems
DRV301: Advanced Windows Driver Model Device Drivers
DRV321: Advanced Windows Network Drivers


Windows 64-bit Driver Migration

An amazing number of devices are still not supported under 64-bit Windows! Are your devices among the missing? Bring them into the 64-bit fold in short order. The first of these covers driver migration for all 64-bit platforms, and debugging on x64; the second adds Itanium debugging if you need it. (If you need only Itanium, we can offer a customized version at your site.) 

DRV264: Windows 64-bit Driver Migration and x64 Debugging
DRV274: Windows Driver Debugging and Memory Dump Analysis for Itanium Systems

 

Seminars for Source Code Licensees

These seminars are of course only available to those who have signed the appropriate source code licenses with Microsoft. For details, please see the Windows Shared Source Licensing Programs page at www.microsoft.com.  Your Shared Source representative can assist you with arranging these seminars.

OFF101: Office Source Code Orientation for Code Center Premium
OFF201: Office File Formats for Code Center Premium
WSC102: Windows Source Code Workshop for Code Center Premium Licensees
WSC110: Windows Source Code Orientation for OEM Source Licensees
WSC201: Windows Source Code Workshop for Code Center Premium Licensees
 

 

 

Customizations

Remember, these course descriptions are just a starting point for your private seminar. Contact us today if you'd like us to tailor a seminar to your organization's needs.

Got source?

If you're a Microsoft Windows source licensee—whether via Code Center Premium, or an OEM source agreement—we can present any of these seminars in a "with source" format.

What about 64 bits?
All of our driver coding seminars are 64-bit compliant today. The drivers you learn to write will build and run on x64 and Itanium. If you want to update your existing skills for the new environments, we do offer DRV264, Windows Drivers Porting & Debugging for 64-bit Platforms and DRV274, Driver Debugging & Memory Dump Analysis for Itanium Systems.
