Very interesting and informational course for me. Thanks IBM team for offering such informational course for the students and individuals online around the world.
Very informative course, these knowledge can help individuals to protect their system safe online.
I cannot believe they really thought it was a good idea to do the narration in the most lifeless robotic voice, this has made the whole experience of learning the basics of cybersecurity more intimidating than it already is. Not to mention that some of the explanations were unclear. It's a bummer because everything else was good.
This course taught me so much valuable information applicable to both my business and personal work. The course is very engaging and well written. The activities and labs were great for reinforcing the information. This course provided me a solid understanding of cybersecurity.
This course was amazing! It left me intrigued. I enjoyed every bit of it from start to finish. It is beginner friendly and was very easy to comprehend. Thank you IBM Skills Network! Thank you Coursera!

I am very happy with the contents and also learned a lot in the field of cyber security. I will recommend this course to everyone who wants to start with cyber security.
At the time when I am enrolled, there are too many obvious indicators of AI generated material. There are excessive inaccuracies, repetitions, and errors in spelling and grammar. One example of many, in the module 4 glossary, "Hypertext Transfer Protocol Script protocol (HTTP protocol)" and "Hypertext Transfer Protocol Script Secure protocol (HTTPS protocol)" are defined which have obvious mistakes in the expansion of the acronyms. HTTP is an acronym for "Hypertext Transfer Protocol", and and HTTPS represents"Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure". Even "HTTP protocol" and "HTTPS protocol" use the "protocol" word redundantly, and calling them "Hypertext Transfer Protocol Script protocol" and "Hypertext Transfer Protocol Script Secure protocol" is even less accurate. The author / AI system seems to fail differentiating "JavaScript" from "Java", and JavaScript is often mislabeled as Java which can mislead students about the target functionality of both programming languages. Even the quizzes seem AI influenced, where some multiple choice questions offer several answers that can be considered "correct", and it is up to the student to guess which page or aspect the (probably AI) system was evaluating at the time the question was auto-generated. The answer expected on several questions is debatable, and there are many cases where I could easily demonstrate why a "wrong" answer is more correct than the answer expected as "correct" by the evaluation. Whether the material is AI generated or not, it seriously needs some evaluation and editing. To the creator(s) of these lessons, if you're going to make AI generated lessons, at least review them first. If the lessons are not AI generated, they need extensive proofreading and correction from people actually familiar with the subject.
I strongly recommend this course for all purposes: companies in general, home, universities and institutes, industries etc.
Great course - I don't think I'll be falling for any online scams any time soon because of this course Thanks IBM :)
Wonderful Course .. a lot of info and make me intersting for more deep infromation . I will keep to get more
Really good and informative would suggest if anyone wants to know the basics of Cybersecurity

Good structure and points revisited in each module to embed learning.
الدوره ممتازه وتعلمت الكثير من هجمات الهكر وكيف احافض على البانات
great learning experience for beginners
Just love it!!!!
Just the completed the course, it's the first of many that I want to complete. I took the course because I want to learn cybersecurity as it's one of the fields of IT that I'm most interested in. I find the course has a basic level, which is what I was looking for as I'm a newbie in the world of cybersecurity. I want to keep learning about cybersecurity, so I will take this course as a stepping stone to more advanced courses. Now I have a better understanding of VPNs, malwares and cyberattacks in general. As a suggestion, I think the labs maybe could have some more advanced exercises like how to set up a domestic VPN but at the same time it's a more complex process, that it goes beyond the level of this course. Overall I'm satisfied. Cheers and a happy new year :).
good and satisfying and good for beginners to start a course almost everything in video section,give more importance to video section than reading.a seminar type course including lot siled
