SANS stands for which description?

• A. SysAdmin, Audit, Networking and Security
• B. Security Administration Networking Standards
• C. SysAdmin, Analysis, Networking and Security
• D. System Admin, Networking and Security

Answer: (A)

The name SANS is built from four domains that the organization focuses on: SysAdmin (system administration), Audit (auditing/compliance), Networking (networking), and Security (information security). The option that lists these four areas exactly matches what the acronym stands for, so it’s the best choice. The other options swap or add terms (like Standards or Analysis) or use a different form of Network/Networking, which isn’t how the SANS acronym is traditionally expanded.
