Short sweet and impactful. A lot of other "intro" courses are hours and hours of the instructor just talking, about nothing. Appreciate the quick and above all else CONCISE, information, a gem.

I found the course very informative and well-structured. The lessons were clear, with relevant examples and practical scenarios. The quizzes were challenging and required a good understanding of the concepts, which enhanced my learning. However, I feel that some explanations could be more detailed, and additional real-world case studies would add great value. Overall, it's a great course for beginners in cybersecurity.

The course is very good however wording is a bit hard to follow and makes trying to take notes frustrating. The break down of the 4 type of threats and how they interact with one another can be confusing when trying to prepare for the test. However I learn alot and I am very grafeful.

A quick overview of the subject which I liked. Some of the questions in the assessment didn't match what I learnt/wrote down as notes, so I am a bit puzzled but I passed the exam anyway. I recommend it to people who want to gain a high-level knowledge of cyber-security.

course misses a little bit of structure. IT would help to show a little more slides and less talking head. Finally, I found the assessment questions confusing and not very consistent.

Test question 15 was not graded correctly resulting in no points. I found the statement in the training stating the result to the question. Otherwise the training was very informative
