this is a good course for beginners who just start their carrier in cybersecurity and when you go further with it, it would become more interesting because of the exercises and hands on practices.

Had some technical issues but the overall layout, pace, and experience is more than worth it. The course offered solid information with a flexible presentation that allows you to learn when you want.
