About the Course

This is the fourth course in the Google Cybersecurity Certificate. These courses will equip you with the skills you need to apply for an entry-level cybersecurity job. You’ll build on your understanding of the topics that were introduced in the third Google Cybersecurity Certificate course. In this course, you will explore computing skills that you’ll use on-the-job as a cybersecurity analyst. First, you'll practice using Linux, an operating system commonly used by cybersecurity professionals. For example, you'll use the Linux command line through the Bash shell to navigate and manage the file system and authenticate users. Then, you'll use SQL to communicate with a database. Google employees who currently work in cybersecurity will guide you through videos, provide hands-on activities and examples that simulate common cybersecurity tasks, and help you build your skills to prepare for jobs. Learners who complete this certificate will be equipped to apply for entry-level cybersecurity roles. No previous experience is necessary. By the end of this course, you will: - Explain the relationship between operating systems, applications, and hardware. - Compare a graphical user interface to a command line interface. - Identify the unique features of common Linux distributions. - Navigate and manage the file system using Linux commands via the Bash shell. - Use Linux commands via the Bash shell to authenticate and authorize users. - Describe how a relational database is organized. - Use SQL to retrieve information from a database. - Apply filters to SQL queries and use joins to combine multiple tables....

This class was very challenging and fun! I was so intimidated to start it, seriously took me 2 months of looking at it to finally get started and I am glad i did. I learned so much and it was fun!

SQL course could have been better.

As for the initial learner in view of SQL query provided video based training content is not sufficient to learn.

Thanks,

3.5/5 Stars. The content offered in this course was well worth it. The delivery by the instructor for this course is brain-numbingly dull and robotic.

This was painful to follow. I would've liked to follow along as the instructor was teaching rather than go do a lab on my own

Too much info and too many assignments. Linux is open-source so it did not have to feel like an expert level class.

There should be far less biographies. The courses should be focused on the topic

Relies heavily on qwiklabs. The qwiklabs implementation is broken. I am stuck on infinite CAPTCHA attempts. Thankfully this is review, but for a student for whom it is not review, this is unacceptable. Students experiencing the same would be right to ask for a refund.

The coverage of Linux and SQL are too basic. The content of this course could have been presented in a few pages.
