Great introduction into the remaining courses. I love that there are different learning methods, ie, audio and reading and that there are quizzes at the end of each to help you digest the information.

After 3 years in the trenched of #ITHelpDesk #Supporting, I feel my next challenge is to take all the knowledge I have gained for a higher more challenging mission in cybersecurity. I am open to learning about on-premises and especially cloud architecture security. I was to be proficient in a hybrid environment because I feel organizations want access, availability via redundancy. I hope to be the leading consultant in on-premises and cloud data security in sub-Saharan Africa, helping clients in the areas of threat assessment and risk mitigation on the continent and beyond. As an avid learner, I will continue to keep abreast of the continuously expanding threat and vulnerability landscape in order to keep people, data and organizational infrastructure safe, online and off.Â

Hello, I recently completed the first course in the Google Cybersecurity Certificate series, "Foundations of Cybersecurity," and my goodness, what a ride it has been! We've worked together to identify common attack types, navigate the fundamentals of cybersecurity analyst protection for networks, and become acquainted with the tools used by digital detectives to look into unusual activity. It's exciting to consider how these abilities can help us protect people and organisations from some of the most sophisticated cyberthreats available today. I'm going to celebrate this accomplishment with a moment of relaxation, a treat, or just a mental high five (why not all three?). However, neither the learning nor our cooperation should end here. Thank you for the support.

"Foundations of Cybersecurity" provided a comprehensive introduction to the core principles and practices of cybersecurity. Before the course, my understanding was limited, but now I have a broader perspective on how cybersecurity safeguards individuals and organizations. I've learned about security domains, the role of security analysts, tools like SIEM, and the importance of ethical decision-making. The course was insightful in dispelling misconceptions and highlighting the complex, evolving nature of cybersecurity. One surprising element was the depth of security domains and the critical role they play. Overall, this course has been an eye-opener, deepening my appreciation for the cybersecurity profession and motivating me to continue learning.

Curso muy bien explicado, con mucho detalle, facilidad para entender incluso si tu nivel de inglés es intermedio/alto, no necesariamente nativo. Yo no tengo ningún certificado de nivel de inglés, lo que estudié en el colegio e instituto y lo que he ido aprendiendo durante los años usando internet y comunicándome con gente de todos los paÃses, con eso me ha sobrado para comprender el curso completo. Muy recomendable si te quieres iniciar en el mundo de la ciberseguridad, espero que mas gente de habla hispana se anime a hacer el curso ya que aparte de todo te abre puertas para trabajar en empresas en el extranjero mejor pagadas, si has hecho un FP o Grado medio relacionado con ciberseguridad esto te viene de maravilla.
Un saludo espero haber ayudado.

Interesting Discovery:
One intriguing element I discovered about the cybersecurity profession is the extensive reliance on collaboration and communication. I didn't realize how much cybersecurity analysts need to work closely with other teams within an organization, such as IT, legal, and management, to ensure a holistic and effective security strategy. I also find it fascinating that the field requires continuous learning and adaptation due to the ever-evolving nature of cyber threats. The concept of security information and event management (SIEM) systems and incident response playbooks also caught my attention. It's interesting to see how these tools and processes help in managing and mitigating security incidents systematically.

Before I started Google’s Cybersecurity Fundamentals course, I thought cybersecurity was just about protecting systems from viruses. However, as I progressed through the course, I discovered that it is much broader. It is highly rated for its practical and accessible approach, offering a solid introduction to the basics of cybersecurity, guided by Google experts. It is ideal for beginners and requires no prior experience. Plus, the course is 100% remote and can be completed at your own pace in less than six months.

great experience, before doing this course i didnt even know that cybersecurity has too many fields. If you are a college student and takes a 1 year drop for a reasons like financial situation or noot in the mood for doing college (like me) so it is best course to purchase coz you'll get idea that what you can do in this field if you have intrest in cybersecurity, it will also help you to look different from others if you are trying or planning for campus placements ................. excited for upcoming course............ But there is one problem question should be in larger quantity and lack of quizes and exercise coz the quizes and exercise is fun to do........Thanks

This particular Foundations in Cybersecurity (CS) course is very informative and enlightening. I believe this is couse that IT prefessionals of any specialization need to get a 'front to end' view concerning the nature of cyberattacks, not only as a rung in occupational transitions but also to get an understanding of how and why the work we do for our customers and clients can be undermined by threat agents.
I believe CS has evolved from the emerging technology from the need-to-know skillset to to a must-have skillset for all IT workers and professionals in the field, if we are to maintain customer trust and organization stabililty.

This is a review on my first course with Coursera. Foundations of Cybersecurity. I like the material. It allows you to review and apply as needed. Written transcripts along with Video helps with retention along with quizzes. I advise to review multiple times for maximum retention and participate in all exercises to get into good study habits. This is only 1 of 8. So far I definitely recommend to try. The first week is at no cost to you for an opportunity to learn a new skill that is in high demand. I have thought about this profession for years and this program Is a great value. Even if you do not get a job...everyone should know this.
