TOP REVIEWS FROM USABLE SECURITY
The course information is well laid out. Like with anything you want to learn, make your own notes as you go and review to make sure you understand the material and you will do great.
This course has much detailed information about the topic. The instructor went to a large extent to make us learn the topic well. Overall the course is recommended. It is good course.
Very easy to follow and understand the instructure does a excellent job at teaching. You should fly through this course quick and finish it with a much better understanding of security and privacy
The course was informative. But it needs improvements. In my view, rather than conducting interviews, experts opinions can be included in the contents of the course/lectures. Done well. Thanks
