Great review of Python syntax, some Java, and forensic cybersecurity. This has made me particularly interested in this as a possible career path.
This course ought to have come first to provide a context for each concepts presented in previous courses. It really provided more clarity on the whole field of Cyber Security.
Great course the material is now dated 2023 and it could easily be made relevant with up to date links. Some coursework could you use more detailed slides - I had to rely on transcripts
Good for overview of topics. However more graded hands-on lab should be provided (as Google does) instead of just providing links in additional resources.
Comprehensive and well-structured project that clearly explains the incident response process and digital forensics procedures, making it easy to understand and apply
This course is so detailed with all the necessary knowledge and strategy needed to be successful in the field of cyber security. Kudos to the team for a job well done
This course gave me a good overview and deep understanding of penetration testing, scripting, forensics and incident response managment and python along with the histroy and applicatons.
learnt more about cyber threats and soc intelligence. application lecturer sound like she is drunk there is no enthusiasm reading like a robot.
It's been an great opportunity to study this course and knowing about the industry behind it and Thank you for the lectures for teaching, I had a good time studying.
The heaviest course especially forensics, it needs lot of reading and practice.Thanks to instructors did their best to make somehow easier on beginners.
This course is really awesome. It gives insightful knowledge with IBM tools and attached resources. Worth it.
I loved the junior cybersecurity analyst certificate offered by IBM and it is a previliege to collect the IBM badge.

Penetration testing needs to have lab assignments, just a theoretical aspect of this makes no sense.
Poorly put together course that did not provide the resources to adequately learn the materials. Labs did not have proper instructions, were riddled with broken links and resources and had no method with which you could check your work.
The quality of this course is very disappointing. Incorrect information is provided in the very first video of the course. The lack of ability to demonstrate proficiency to record lectures with quality audio and video leaves one doubting the technical capabilities of the instructor to use even the most basic technology, let alone demonstrate proficiency in more advanced topics. This course diminishes the reputation of IBM.
Whao! I must say that of all the pen testing and python courses I have taken, this is the best of them all. One thing with learning is that as you learn from different instructors, you tend to have a deeper and better understanding of the what is being taught. I STRONGLY recommend this course to anyone who wants to be a top-notch cyber security analyst/professional and with confidence, you will have no regrets. Just make sure you follow the course systematically, read up any provided links or references and you will be fine. DO NOT SKIP OR IGNORE THE ADDITIONAL LINKS OR REFERENCES TO GET THE BEST OUT OF THIS COURSE.
If you hear "Raul will explain", you can pause the video and start reading, it will save you a lot of time
Raul needs a new microphone
The course content was good. If instructor showed more tools for pentest I think then it would be more helpful to learn.
Loved it. A great course for anyone interested in Pen-testing and forensics. Each and every module of the course is perfectly built, and the quizzes make sure that you have leaned something in each part of the module and the course.
partially very poor audio.
the way it was presented wasn't good at all. mic problems and understanding was a nightmare at times.
nice and informative course but the scripting part is audio poor
It was great experience learning this course. This course gives all the knowledge required for a beginner to start career in Cyber Security domain with all the concepts and other documentations attached. Very much Helpful.
I learn to many skills set into this course and my weakenss also be strong as we course design to motivate my self to learn about deep and extend my knowledge.
Thanks to:
Coursera Team
easy to understand
Great course 👍
you need to improve the way of explanation because it is hard to understand while you explaining the topics and another horrible thing is Rahul explanation because his voice is not audible
I think it is vewry good start for a beginner!
Contents are ok but the quality of the videos are vwery-very poor.
The content of the course is very informative, however it is barely and very fast introduced, in addition the audio of the videos is terrible.
Interesting content but the audio is stilll presented like an online call
some part of the video the audio is very bad
This is definitely 5 stars course, it brought new bird a entry level views which details of the knowledge of the PenTesting, IR and Forensics knowledge, it prepared a take away weapons for a System Security Professional.
Thanks so much IBM and Coursera to introduced the quality course content, thanks.
