About the Course

This is the fifth course in the Google Cybersecurity Certificate. These courses will further explore the importance of protecting organizational assets from threats, risks, and vulnerabilities. They will also continue to develop an understanding of asset classification and how to use the National Institute of Standards and Technology’s (NIST) Cybersecurity Framework (CSF), as well as security controls, to protect assets and mitigate risk. Additionally, learners will gain an understanding of how to develop a threat actor mindset to help protect assets from ever-evolving threat actor tactics and techniques. By the end of this course, you will: - Learn effective data handling processes. - Discuss the role of encryption and hashing in securing assets. - Describe how to effectively use authentication and authorization. - Explain how common vulnerability exposures are identified by MITRE. - Analyze an attack surface to find risks and vulnerabilities. - Identify threats, such as social engineering, malware, and web-based exploits. - Summarize the threat modeling process....

Overall very informative and well presented course. I'd really like more hands-on tasks than purely theoretical frameworks where possible. But still happy and motivated by this course content.

The structure of this course isn't as clear as the previous ones, and some of the quiz questions are a little vague and confusing. But overall the instructor did a great job.

Faunistic course, I learned a lot but I can not give it five stars because I didn’t get to see some of the tools (IDS and the rest) mentioned in the course in action.

I liked the course expecially the theories provided as answers foe the portfolio; however, there is missing something namely real practical examples ?

This was a shorter course than I was expecting, with less details concerning practical techniques for dealing with threats than I'd anticipated.

I liked all the information provided in the course and videos. My only complaint is De'Quesha's continual hand movements were distracting.

lots of regurgitated information from previous courses. The amount of "new" info could easily just be added to a previous course 2.

The module was a little exhaustive although it was quite informative and important for the real-life threat modelling incidents.
