The course is quite an interesting one!eno However, some of the presenters are audible enough in their presentations. What helped me was that I usually download the text of the presentation, print and read for proper understanding.

I am really so happy and grateful to God to have earned my first IBM certificate for the first part of the course! This gives me a lot of encouragement and motivation to continue with the rest of course and I hope to do my best in order to also earn the rest of the certificates.

Excelente curso, lo recomiendo 100%. Contiene conceptos fundamentales de ciberseguridad ideales para introducirse en este campo estudio. Mejoraría algunos aspectos de audio, sin embargo, eso no le resta calidad al contenido técnico impartido. Los instructores son de alto nivel académico y con gran experiencia en su área de desempeño. El curso ofrece una variedad de referencias electrónicas para expandir la informacion. Me dejo totalmente entusiasmado en tomar el segundo módulo de esta especialización.

Just completed Introduction to Cybersecurity Tools & Cyber Attacks and I was thoroughly impressed with the depth and breadth of the material covered. The course provided a comprehensive overview of various aspects of cybersecurity, cybercrime, law, digital forensics, cryptography as well as cybersecurity management. The instructor was knowledgeable and engaging, making complex concepts easy to understand. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to build their cybersecurity skills and knowledge

This course was packed with lots in information, tools and knowledge. It was very intense and intriguing, my desire is to continue to learn and to grow in this field. Hopefully, at the end of the process I can make a career transition into this line of work. The professors are knowledgable and their passion makes it seems easier than it really is, but learning such new skills is awesome. I would recommend this course to anyone trying to make a career change like me.

Very good course I am unemployed right now so I can spend the whole day studying and reading the material. I was an IT specialist with the Fed Gov but when they designate you as an IT specialist you dont really do IT specialist stuff, I forgot how much I lost not actually working in my field. Now I am trying to play catch up and change my field to get back into hands on and a field I love which is Cyber security and Pentesting, this course was a nice welcome back home.

i learnt lot of things from this course really a very interesting and useful in cyber security field, i am form India and live in rural and internet speed is too slow and in this lock down more and more access of internet by a large number of persons , it become almost impossible to attend course in day time so i completed this course by being wake in whole night but i did it and really i enjoyed it lot. again thank you so much team coursera and mentor of this course.

Great course to understand the fundamentals of the current field. I'd say it's more business-oriented and you won't find much technical knowledge. But if you want to jump into the Cybersecurity world - you can't miss this course. A lot of great resources and general information with examples will definitely make your future explorations easier. Thanks a lot!

p.s. special thanks to Kenneth Gonzalez as his lessons in my opinion were most entertaining and interesting.

I found this course invaluable. I got to know about the history of cybersecurity, key concepts & key security tools, operating systems and cryptography too. It emphasizes critical thinking as well as the different categories of attackers, and the incident response.

This course provides the crucial fundamental knowledge about cybersecurity. Although subtitles are available, the video and audio quality is poor in some of the modules.

Thank you IBM and Coursera.

I was keen interested in learning and gaining knowledge related to Cyber Security and its workings from beginning. After availing this course on Coursera, I was really very excited to learn with IBM. The course was very comprehensive and easy to understand. The instructors made sure that they are giving the information in a way that won't make me confused. I found this course really useful and extremely valuable.

Thank you so much for this great course!

Neste curso pude aprender sobre vários tipos de softwares maliciosos. Descrever os principais conceitos de segurança cibernética, incluindo a CIA Triad, gerenciamento de acesso, resposta a incidentes e melhores práticas comuns de segurança cibernética. Identificar as principais ferramentas de segurança cibernética que incluem o seguinte: firewall, antivírus, criptografia, testes de penetração e análise forense digital.

Foi muito bom aprender !

II found the course very appropriate for both those who want to start their journey in the area of security and for those who just want to have knowledge about this area.

The course is very accessible because it does not require prior knowledge, although it is an asset to be familiar with computer terms.

The only thing to point out is the fact that in some videos some words are not understood due to "noise" in the communication.

I am thanking Coursera and IBM for providing such a knowledgeable course. It has enhance my knowledge. Those technical definitions with real time examples made me to get involve in this course deeply. I am spending my time usefully using Coursera. My college syllabus is not much deeper in technical and real time implementations. Thus I have started to study Coursera. I would like to share this wonderful MOOC site to everyone.

An extremely informative course on cyber attacks, threats, malware, phishing and all concepts related to cyber security and cyber attacks. As a data privacy and IP Lawyer I have gained exhaustive knowledge on different skills and situations required by a security professional. This course is a must to learn and combat cyber crime for entrepreneur, professionals, lawyers and anyone interested learn about cyber security.

It was an enlightening experience. This comprehensive course, offered by IBM and Coursera, provided a solid foundation for understanding the fundamental concepts and principles of cybersecurity. It covers a broad range of essential topics and provides a solid foundation for further exploration in the field. The practical exercises and knowledgeable instructors make the learning experience engaging and informative.

In the online world, cybersecurity is one of the most important things.Great importance to every society and every country, as cybersecurity is essential at the individual level in protecting personal data, photos, files, videos, personal accounts, passwords, and bank accounts. And at the community levelI recommend this course because it will help you in many ways and educate you about topics you may not know about

Great course, be careful with the translations. Initially, I had set the course for automatic translation in Italian. I had to reset the course for questions in English because the translations were often misleading. Some technical terms in Italian are said in the same way that in English doing automatic translation is a mistake. In any case, I have already activated some things learned as security on my MAC.

Thank you so much for this great Course! Was an amazing experience and i really enjoyed all the module within this program. Performers are very organised, the moduls are really interesting and sometimes i felt myself to be in the middle of a science fiction :-) i hope i can start the second module very soon! I wait that very much! Once again thank you for all the great performers to IBM and Coursera as well!

This course was just, wow! Truly useful information. I've always been into Cybersecurity soi decided to dive in. This is one of my first certificates on coursera, and this organization makes it so easy to study anytime, work at your own pace, and provide just as much wealth in knowledge as my classroom sessions. I highly recommend this course as IBM hit the nail on the dot here! Thank you for having me!

IBM collaborating with Coursera provides us with a great opportunity to learn  Introduction to Cybersecurity Tools & Cyber Attacks. In this course I came to know various terms, like CIA Trail and different types of attacks and many more. In my opinion, this is the best course to kick start your cyber security journey. I would like to thank IBM as well as Coursera for introducing this course to us .

This is a really good indroduction to the world of Cyber Security. I now have a basis and desire to learn more as I progress in this fascinating career. This course also gave me resources to stay informed on the latest news and events as it relates to ongoing challenges we face as more of our sensitive information is under threat from predators on the internet. Great first course! Thanks!

That is a wonderful initiative from IBM to provide such long distance course with advance introduction of Labs, Reports and surveys about the Cybersecurity tools & Cyber Attacks.

I will help students to improve their skills and knowledge. I would recommend Coursera to every student to start their course and learn the up coming challenges in cyber world and advance technology.

A well-detailed course that provides a bird's eye view of the entire cybersecurity domain. It's very beneficial for people who plan to start a career in CYbersecurity.

Lessons provided by the security architect is quite beneficial. If the audio quality of his lessons would have been slightly better, it would make the process of understanding concepts bit easier.

I truly got something out of this course. Time and time again, I've been beat to death the same old "intro to cybersecurity" tid bits that didn't demonstrate actual tools, resources, or guidance on how to get hands-on experience within the specialty I am going after. Thank you so much, I learned 11+ new things from this course. Keep up the great work, IBM

I'm so glad I discovered this course! IBM has been a leader in cybersecurity for a long time, and I have been looking to break into this field for a while. This course was the perfect introduction to the subject and I feel confident that it's going to help me learn what I need in order to become job-ready for a cybersecurity analyst position.

I am in school for my BS in CyberSecurity with a focus on Intelligence and Forensic Studies. This course pushed me, and will make me better at my job. This course will ultimately help me to better analyze and detect problems faster, and by doing that I will be able to save companies, or my government millions of dollars in the long run.
