Online security courses

I am interested in learning more about and possibly pursuing a career in systems security. I work full time and would like to start out with an online course or two. Any suggestions?

Right now, the only "big-name" program I know of that offers reasonably comprehensive (and official) online training is the SANS GIAC program (www.giac.org). That said, there are numerous vendors who offer classroom training for other big-name security certs, but right now there aren't that many other options for online training.
