Very good course explaining Cyber threats and mitigation atcivities. Especially the additional reading material on APT was very detailed and comprehensive.
This course introduces real-time cyber security techniques and methods in the context of the TCP/IP protocol suites. Explanation of some basic TCP/IP security hacks is used to introduce the need for network security solutions such as stateless and stateful firewalls. Learners will be introduced to the techniques used to design and configure firewall solutions such as packet filters and proxies to protect enterprise assets.
Perimeter solutions such as firewalls and intrusion prevention systems are shown to have significant drawbacks in common enterprise environments. The result of such weakness is shown to often exist as advanced persistent threats (APTs) from nation-state actors. Such attacks, as well as DDOS and third-party attacks, are shown to have potential solutions for modern enterprise.

Nice presentation and pace by Edward Amoroso Sir, great theoretical knowledge for beginners.

I am not an engineer but this course is interesting. I have learned so much about cyber security. I am about to start the last course in this progaram.
AR
Great teaching with real life examples .... also APT was explained in a very good fashion
DK
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.
SK
i think it was an excellent and very helpful cousre and a big thankyou for the instructor for his hardwork
DE
Solid introductory course. Prof teaches basic concepts in an engaging manner without requiring much technical background. As with the other courses in the program, the quiz wording is a bit odd.
MR
This incredible course makes me learn a lot about all the threat we deal in the recent times. The teacher and videos are really enjoyable and very detailed.
SP
The instructor is personable with good presentation skills. He transmits a passion for his subject.

Very good course providing basic knowledge for understanding the ways of cyber threat detections & mitigation so it is easier and more intuitive continuing exploration of the field by your own
MK
well explained in detais.. good for knowing concept and thinking in a differnt way. very useful
SM
Explained in simple language, which make the concepts easy to understandGood additional resources & case studies to make foundation strong

The whole four weeks worth of the course could be done in a day. The level of detail of this course corresponds to that of a newspaper article. The tests are sloppily made (e.g. asks for "which answer is false" but actually looks for the only correct answer, writes "migration" instead of "mitigation"). There are no tutors/mentors here to assist people in the forum, the whole course seems abandoned (but, hey, you still have to pay for it!).
Quizzes are somehow tricky and requires more inputs from videos..So It would be better to have more concepts related to that.Still expecting better explanation from the perspective of real time attack detection.
I was into Cyber Security for 2 years. Doing mostly Web Application Attacks, OSINT. But this course made me understand the fundamental problems in protocols that are causing big issues like man-in-middle attacks, IP Spoofing, Email Spoofing. Overall this course motivated me to dig more deeply into IDS and IPS and fundamentally how it works.

Some of the reading material is unavailable. Otherwise the course is great.
Dr. Amoroso did a wonderful job as always explaining the practical limitations of existing parameters and exposing the porous border of pretty much all enterprise networks. His talk at the IEEE 5G conference at Princeton along with his paper added a lot of value to the concepts around virtualized software driven perimeters. The case studies he discussed in the videos highlight vulnerabilities that large enterprises have to defend. Details around APT such as the organization, planning and patience displayed by perpetrators is mind-boggling. The paper by Dr. Dorothy Denning gave a very thorough and theoretical treatment to aspects around intrusion detection and prevention. Overall a very enjoyable journey so far.
I have trialed a few of the better known online courses. I can wholeheartedly say Dr. Amoroso is an amazingly gifted teacher. His depth of knowledge is obvious but his ability to make and keep the discussions interesting is his magic. Not simply reading off a script. Thank you!!!

Explains the basics but still very well and made it simple to understand, I would recommend the staff to check some things that where also commented in the forum

Nice introduction into real-time cyber hunting with very good explanations of the different possibilities for detecting cyber threats and to prevent them.
Dr Amoroso does a good job presenting the concepts of cybersecurity in this course. The interviews are also very informative. I learned a lot.
Explained in simple language, which make the concepts easy to understand
Good additional resources & case studies to make foundation strong
Technical terms described in a meaningful ways and examples were very effective to grasp the impact and importance of cybersecurity.
I love the stories and method of explaining provided by Dr. Amoroso, really great and learned a ton of stuff!
I really understood better the architecture of a cyber attack defense system, greaaaaat teacherrr!
Very good course to start with for Real-Time Cyber Threat Detection and Mitigation.
I enjoyed this course! Very well explained and great content.
Really good, understand more details about this topic
