Some of the material is repetitive (f.e. talks about the same exact classification of threaths in weeks 1,2 & 3). I feel there wasn't a good communication between the lecturers, hence the repetition. At some videos audio was really bad. Otherwise, the course gives a good, but brief introduction. Hope the next one in the specialisation is better.

Material was good and understandable, aside from a few professors where their accent was very thick and made it difficult to understand without reading the captions at the bottom. I also saw multiple questions were either poorly worded or the wrong answer was selected by their creator resulting in the wrong answer on the students end.

Thank you for the work and the opportunity you provided! But unfortunately it was very difficult for me to complete this course, since I have no experience in this field. It seemed to me that the lessons are not really prepared by people in terms of training. Nevertheless, I did learn a lot of new information for myself in this field.

I gave this course a 3 stars rating because some of explanations & prouncations wasn't fully clear to follow especially, while watching the diagram layouts, etc, but I did enjoyed learning lots of new things about computer hackers & actors, malwares, cybercrime, cyberwarfare, CIA triads, security programs &, security threats!

the content of the course is good and well explained. The only issue I got it was understanding the teacher not because of their strong accent but more because of the noise on the recordings, most of them sound like they recorded everything with a cheap microphone or on their mouth. Recordings could be clean before upload

Topics and content of courses are great but technical quality is awful. Recordings sounds like they are from 20 years ago and no one has checked them any near future. They are not old but has awful quality.

Also some non-native speaker teachers hard to understand, some of them having trouble reading a text in front of them

The course structure does not seem to follow a logic flow; all the concepts presented are very useful but often repeated in different lectures; sometime the material and videos seems to be taken from other classes keeping just the relvant part. To summarize: a lot of good concepts and information badly structured,

There were some great visuals and obvious tons of expert teaching. However, some of the audio was difficult to understand, I often felt like the instructor was reading off of a slide rather than elaborating and providing context or simple examples, and the general flow of the course didn't really make sense to me.

I enjoyed the course, and I learned a lot of new things about cybersecurity. However, I expected a more practical approach than a theoretical one. I believe there will be more practicals in the coming courses. Nevertheless, I would have still loved to have some practical and technical examples of what I learned.

The material is good, however the quality of the presentations vary wildly. Some of the presenters sound like their microphones are in a bath tub in the other room, while others sound like they were recorded with a microphone next to a conference room speaker. This made it very difficult to understand at times.

The audio in most of the videos towards the second half are of very low quality and seems like the instructor is talking while sky diving. When you pay an amount for a course , you expect certain standards which was not here. But you get good idea about the terminologies used in the Cyber Security environment.

most of the videos were recorded poorly, made it so hard to understand at a point. using non english speaking lecturers is a downside to taking this course, and it states its a begginer level but some things are mentioned and expected to be automatically understood at the begginer level. quite dissapointing

This is supposed a course for beginners, with no background at all. The lecturers use many technical terms that are unknown for students without any prior knowledge. So I obviously googled them (TCP,UDP, etc.) and studied them, but I would prefer that everything that matters will be explained in the course.

Some material links are dead, subtitles are software generated and need amendments, many videos have the slides/audio out of sync, some quizzes have poor questions. The course does, however, provide very useful external resources to develop the necessary skills in cybersecurity. It's an ok INTRO course.

This course is a good start for beginners. But I wont say, it was the best as personally I felt there is alot more to cover for beginners. This was more like a introductory course and very theoretical and no hands on practices were given. Audio quality must improve too. But It was good learning.

Great information, the subtitles are a little off and the audio is somewhat hard to hear. I had to re-watch some of the videos in order to fully understand what was being said.

But other than that, it was really good information. A good foundation into CyberSecurity. I cannot wait to learn more!

The course content is quite good although is outdated, the text, the audio and the videos are all from 2018, sometimes you cant even read entire texts or charts since they are completely blurred out. Really liked the info provided but I was really dissapointed in the materials that were used.

An awesome course and I learned a lot of things about the field of the cyber world. But the main drawback of this course is its audio and slide quality. The quality of audio is so bad that keeping concentration becomes a hard nut to crack and I needed to keep my subtitle on 100% of the time.

Okay.. It's good and have a lot of amusing information .. but it's boring because all content is theoretical and nothing is practical, the voice and translate are not clear and training bag is not available .

I hope to develop the course more and then it will be INTERESTING !!

Thanks <3

Some of the questions they ask on the big tests are not on the material they give you to study. I reread every single module to try and find some of the answers and i was unsuccessful. This is not a beginner course, i would recomment having some background knowledge prior to starting

Muito bom fazer para ter uma base boa, mas é muita teoria e quase nada de pratica. Realmente é bastante texto e artigos, mas é muito bom para ter uma base firme! A parte de Tools não tem é só um slide que fala o nome, somente, de algumas ferramentas gratuitas boas, mas nada de mais!

THE COMPLETE COURSE WAS VERY BENEFICIAL AND HELPFUL FOR PROVIDING INFORMATION ABOUT CYBER SECURITY , BUT THERE SHOULD BE SOME PRACTICAL LEARNING AND TO GIVE PRACTICAL DEMONSTRATION ALSO . IT WAS A GREAT EXPERIENCE .

BUT I DIDN'T RECEIVED MY IBM BADGE YET . THAT IS DISSAPOINTING .

Material is ok but presentation and sound is horrible

Alot of times the presenters are literally only reading as if they are reciting a poem

A lot of tables in the presentations are not clear and if you try to make larger it becomes blury in addition sound quality is bad

It was alright. I learned a fair amount, but being lectured to by unengaging instructors reading off a powerpoint, some of whom don't speak english very well, can make getting through this class feel more like a chore. Regardless, it still contained good information.

It gives a broad introduction, but the videos are so outdated! The audio quality is terrible and some of the instructors with accents are extrememly difficult to understand. Appreciate it is a cheap course, but the videos really need updating with clear audio.
