Not too deep explanations - not necessary for now, medium-to-easy to understand, well structured course. Highly recommended even to just understand about compliance in IT environment.

This is a great course by all standards. This course is supposed to be practical in nature especially the System Administration part so that students can practice all the permissions that were taught.

E​xcellent course for beginners. Just a minor glitch where one of the instructors in one of the cryptography modules refers to the well-known cryptographer Bill Schneier (instead of Bruce).

Very thorough and provided a LOT of useful information! Some of the Linux material was a bit in-depth and thought it would be better suited to coding related to Linux.

S​ome errors on some of the quizzes, not so much the practice quizzes. Unfortunately, had to wait 8 hours to take a quiz again. Quizzes need to be corrected.
