Very high level. Almost no examples.

Half of the lessons have very poor audio compromised by room acoustics, annoying reverberation, wrong microphone placement, and transmission drop-outs. This deteriorates the intelligibility considerably. Sometimes rendering the presentation useless.

The other half of the lessons is a presentation with professional voice over. However, the voice actor has no idea what she is reading.

Find yourself another course. This one is really bad.

I have certificates from nine courses so far and while some were excellent (five stars), this one is by far the worst one!

Knowledge of cyber threats and its growing number of exploits and other considerations from the hardware and software points of view have become a key consideration when deploying new company initiatives. Knowing about these challenges is key in order to make these efforts safe and sustainable in time
