Brilliant little course for an introduction to Kali
The material is easy to understand and practice. The AI support is even much better as it answers all the questions so clearly. Thank you Coursera
A good course for those who want to learn ethical hacking can be better if the output was shown when attacking, like in a dummy mobile phone.
amazing and very useful course in growing one's career graph professional
Great learning and understanding the interface and how to use Kali Linux. I am looking forward to finishing this course and properly come to give it a 5 start rating.

Course description says "Intermediate", but the content provided is below beginner. Quiz questions are just there for the sake of being there since they have nothing to do with Kali. Content of the course is just basics of how Linux Command Line works. Course being called "Kali Linux" feels like a cheap scam to grab peoples attention since it covers nothing specific to Kali
I think the course should cover Kali Linux in more detail, but this course seems to only provide a general overview, making it feel more suited for beginners. If you're new to Kali Linux and want a basic understanding of its processes, this course is great for you. Otherwise, I wouldn't recommend attending the class.
My sincere thanks to the instructors who prepared such an educational and informative course, and to the Coursera and BOARD INFINITY team for making this course available to us. The explanations are fantastic, and the educational content is excellent.

The course is a good one and can be recommend to others
Not an in depth course, but it will help you get started as a beginner.
Does not go deep enough into technical aspects. Non Kali Linux topics covered more than actual Kali Linux how-to. Questions on the quizzes are not covered in the videos. I did not get what I was looking for from this course.
This course provides a solid and beginner-friendly introduction to Kali Linux and its role in cybersecurity. The explanations are clear, well-structured, and focused on practical understanding rather than just theory. I especially liked how the course explains the purpose of Kali Linux, its design for security assessments, and how professionals use it in real-world scenarios. The interactive dialogue and feedback helped reinforce key concepts and made the learning experience engaging. Overall, it’s a great starting point for anyone interested in ethical hacking and penetration testing. I would definitely recommend this course to beginners and students entering the cybersecurity field.
I love this course because, well, first of all, i am interested in this topic, and most of all, i see the dedication made to this course from the author (maybe you,) and because your course was so open ended, not saying, "hey this is all, just do whatever you can and scram", but saying "you can learn this and this, this is useful, you can try this...". and once, again thank you so much for the great course! :)
Very interesting and fun. I'm learning through a hands-on approach to the basic details of how Kali Linux works and uses its tools. This course offered by Board Infinity will help me a lot on my journey to achieve my goal of working in the cybersecurity field.
I only suggest that when in the terminal, the instructor may zoom for visibility of the commands he is issuing. Additionally he may type the command and explain what it does before executing it.
