TOP REVIEWS FROM SECURITY GOVERNANCE & COMPLIANCE
A great way to learn about what could be perceived as a dull part of Cybersecurity
Very detailed and to the point course. Learned a lot about this area.
Great Course to improve knowledge around Security and GRC.
The course is excellent. The pace of the instructor's cadance is a little fast and he hesitates for periods in the beginning, but overall he's very thorough.
