The Google Cybersecurity Professional instructors are excellent! They provide clear explanations, effective communication, and use graphical descriptions to make complex concepts easy to understand.

Very high level concepts, examples for further discussion at various points of the course would have helped to solidify it more, however, I understand that the forthcoming 7 courses will do that.
