A good introduction to the subject of computer security and mobile security. More of a general subject and not vert in depth, but a great start.

It was really a beneficial course to compete this technical world..... And the syllabus was really good and it accumulate all major topics... Overall it is a best course to pursue on post graduate.
MD
Very much organised course.So much things get to know.

So far I've gone through the first week. Lots of business and technical info. The video quality is AMAZING!!
TT
I love this course. I have read a lot of information on IOT and I think the future with IOT devices will be great but not without security risks and challenges that have to be dealt with
JG
Overall, the course is good. I liked module 3 is great and very useful. reading materials provided were good.
MM
Great course. Provides a great hands on insight and experience with Cybersecurity
AN
This was a good simple overview, but I notice that many of the materials are over 5 years old - I would have expected that the technology and approached have evolved since then.
KR
The course provided me with lot of new information about where IoT devices are going to bring changes in our daily to life and how it is important to secure these valuable datas.

Pienso que debería tener material mas actualizado, en algunos de los casos que se mencionan tienen fecha de 2007. Y aunque en México estamos a años luz del desarrollo que se tiene a nivel mundial, si es muy importante el conocer los alcances que existen hoy en día para poder implementar lo que se pueda en nuestras
Cyber Security is miniscule in the topic. Mobility poses severe cyber security threat and syllabus is talking about MDM which is for compliance and cyber security.
I liked the combination of video and readings, and short quizzes during the video. Very practical while still academic.
It was a truly informative and well formed course. I'm really thankful to Coursera for letting me join this course.
A little dated, with most material and research presented from the glorious days of 2012. The issues at hand are however still valid, though
I enjoyed this course. I think having several different learning mediums was helpful. Videos, reading, trends in security. Very informative course.
Great Course and Great materials. Very insightful into this very deep subject of Cybersecurity and correlation with other aspects of Technology.
Generally, a fair intro to key topics in "Cybersecurity and Mobility", however some of the sources are dated (and could be updated), given the fast-paced nature of the field. Still, worth some time if you want to learn more about where current trends are heading.
Links to 4 year old articles, websites and TED talks that can be found on Google don't really constitute a course to me sorry.
In my opinion this is not a course. The contents are a short interview cut up over 4 weeks, fluffed with a myriad of vendor-biased PDFs. The 90s classroom style video editing is annoying to boot.
I must say this course has the foresight, if I am not wrong, it's designed in 2016.
At that time, most company still believe working from home is something not possible or not recommended.
But look at 2020, due to COVID-19, there is no other choice but to work from home. then all those issues started to appear, and companies not ready which were pushed to solve.
As I know, those key service provider was forced to upgrade their infrastructure: Webex, Zoom deployed lots of global nodes for Video Conference; AWS, Microsoft included MS O365 faced high utilization then extended their server farm; Many companies upgraded their VPN but still faced issue to manage those client not connected to Corporate's network.
Excellent course for learning about the growing cybersecurity challenges associated with BYOD & enterprise users moving to their personal devices. Also places an emphasis on end-point security and application security without digging into the technical aspects but rather focusing on the security. User friendly BYOD policy and awareness are key.
My first online course as i am just a house wife that only have high school diploma and graduate long time ago 1999 and English is my 2nd language, with 3 kids ( age 16, 9 and 2) living in the country that is not english speaking country (Dominica Rep. - Spanish speaking country), very recommended course and very educative.
Course is designed very well, tutor explained all topics in detail and would be great if there are some additional information about the progression towards as a Cyber Security profession.
Highly Recommend to other learners and many thanks again for offering such a valuable course.

It was a wonderful course, it helped me a lot, thanks to the instructor and everyone who were related with this course and thanks to Coursera for giving us this wonderful opportunity. Thank you.
El curso me permitió conocer mas acerca de que es lo se espera en un futuro en cuanto a movilidad y por que es importante fue un curso que me permitió conocer muchas cosas nuevas e interesantes.

A good introduction to the subject of computer security and mobile security. More of a general subject and not vert in depth, but a great start.
