If you have some knowledge about Cyber Security then it's not the course for you but if you are starting from zero then it's really a nice and interesting course, specially the Anna videos lol.

Fantastic course to take if you want to learn the basics of cybersecurity. Lecturers' were extremely difficult to understand at times. That is the only reason that I didn't give this course five stars.

The English level of speaking in the first 2 chapters (Week 1 and 2) is almost unbearable and should be better.
The quiz is written in poor English and thrown me out of the correct answer many times. Also The questions don't give clear structure whether I need to choose only one answer or all of applicable.
The best part of this course is interviews, and the best presentation and insightful go to Matt Boardman.

It´s a very good starting point to understand Cybersecurity. Teachers explain on an easy way, with a lot of examples. I really appreciate the effort to make it simple, fast and fun. It works. Once you start you will want to complete it. Maybe it´s not for people with very high skills on Cibersecurity or who needs a perfect English pronunciation, but you can also read the texts below the videos. Strongly recommended for beginers or people who want to review their knowledges.

الأمن السيبراني في عصرنا الحالي، أصبح جزءًا أساسيًا من حياتنا اليومية، لان الانترنت أصبح يُستخدم من قبل كافة الفئات العمرية بشكل كبير في مختلف الأنشطة، سواء كانت تعليمية، ترفيهية أو اجتماعية. من هنا، يصبح من الضروري أن يكون لدى الكل وعي وفهم بكيفية حماية أنفسهم وأجهزتهم من التهديدات الإلكترونية.وهذا ما تم تغطيته من خلال هذه الدورة

Very useful and informative. Also this course is fun, the speakers are very professional on sharing their ideas. I gained a lot of knowledge about cyber security and pitching. Even though, I am not that satisfied due to its limited time, still it was a great time to spend and be more learned than I was. Thank you so much!
