TOP REVIEWS FROM CYBERSECURITY ROLES, PROCESSES & OPERATING SYSTEM SECURITY

by NHNov 25, 2019

This course has designed well. Need to provide presentation files in separate download file for better clarity. Also need practical works which was not there.

by MDMar 17, 2023

This course is amazing and I had a very good experience. Instructors already knows that what doubts you can have during the session, so they cover these things also in videos.

by UROct 24, 2020

the overall sound quality was a bit hard to understand at some places but the information given and the way of teaching and the level of understanding all things were great.

by MMNov 16, 2019

Going into more details on Roles and Processes. But also briefly touches on the various operating systems, short-cuts and a nice week on Virtualization; that was nice!
