TOP REVIEWS FROM REAL-TIME CYBER THREAT DETECTION AND MITIGATION
I used this course a refresh for established cyber skills, its been a welcome change to have such an enthusiastic lecturer and revisit some of the cornerstones of cyber.
I enjoyed this course! Instructor one of the best I have seen. The course material is easy to follow as well.
i think it was an excellent and very helpful cousre and a big thankyou for the instructor for his hardwork
Good course, very solid foundation of basics in the topic. Having said that, even discussion forums are pretty much abandoned, with a few lonely posters and almost no activity there.
