I studied for a LONG time for this and it paid off. I'm taking this certification for preparation towards the Security+, so far, I think it's doing a good job at preparing me for it.

The woman who reads most of this is either drunk and/or doesn't understand the content of what she is reading.

Very high level. Almost no examples.

Half of the lessons have very poor audio compromised by room acoustics, annoying reverberation, wrong microphone placement, and transmission drop-outs. This deteriorates the intelligibility considerably. Sometimes rendering the presentation useless.

The other half of the lessons is a presentation with professional voice over. However, the voice actor has no idea what she is reading.

Find yourself another course. This one is really bad.

I have certificates from nine courses so far and while some were excellent (five stars), this one is by far the worst one!

Knowledge of cyber threats and its growing number of exploits and other considerations from the hardware and software points of view have become a key consideration when deploying new company initiatives. Knowing about these challenges is key in order to make these efforts safe and sustainable in time

I"m going to give this course 3*'s because of a few issues. Firstly, The specialization has vanished from Coursera's catalog!. Secondly, the final video before the graded assessment has a lot of audio that makes it feel as if the video/course has been tampered with, and thirdly, the course instructors have a robotic voice, and in the discussion forums don't have a prompt response timing!

But the course contents are really good. Going to have to check my laptop if the weird sounds caused any troubles.

After the lab is started it doesn't takes commands. I am unable to complete lab and unable to get knowledge about the lab.

This is with all the labs not with particular lab. After opening the browser in the windows framework of Lab i am not able to do anything.
