About the Course

This is the fifth 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 fourth Google Cybersecurity Certificate course. In this course, you will explore the concepts of assets, threats, and vulnerabilities. First, you'll build an understanding of how assets are classified. Next, you will become familiar with common threats and vulnerabilities, and the security controls used by organizations to protect valuable information and mitigate risk. You will develop an attacker mindset by practicing the threat modeling process, and you'll learn tactics for staying ahead of security breaches. 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: - Learn effective data handling processes. - Discuss the role of encryption and hashing in securing assets. - Describe how to effectively use authentication and authorization. - Explain how common vulnerability exposures are identified by MITRE. - Analyze an attack surface to find risks and vulnerabilities. - Identify threats, such as social engineering, malware, and web-based exploits. - Summarize the threat modeling process....

The study material and videos are very useful to understand the subject. Overall the manner in which this course was planned that can be understood easily with little attention. Thank you

This course is awesome! The instructor was very clear in her explanations. The threats, vulnerabilities are real and the modeling exercise in anticipation of threat is a brilliant idea!

Appreciate the effort putting content together. Among the modules so far, this one felt harder to get through due to the structure and explanations. Concepts could be better explained and perhaps combined with earlier modules to minimise overlap.

This course covered a lot of material and the expectations for absorbing that content quickly was too high. I did not feel adequately prepared to jump into the ungraded exercises or grasp some of the nuances of the material.

It is boring and continue to prolong so far. Its contents are also boring and prolonged. It's hard to understand and comprehend. Almost theory and challenging to watch and read and understand.

Very long and tedious course, the worst so far. I truly wish they would pick instructors based on their ability to speak and teach on camera, that is clearly NOT the case.

I enjoyed the material, but compared to the first course teacher this lady wasn't as smooth in her reading, presentation or pronunciation.
