About the Course

This is the second 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 first Google Cybersecurity Certificate course. In this course, you will take a deeper dive into concepts introduced in the first course, with an emphasis on how cybersecurity professionals use frameworks and controls to protect business operations. In particular, you'll identify the steps of risk management and explore common threats, risks, and vulnerabilities. Additionally, you'll explore Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) data and use a playbook to respond to identified threats, risks, and vulnerabilities. Finally, you will take an important step towards becoming a cybersecurity professional and practice performing a security audit. 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: - Identify the common threats, risks, and vulnerabilities to business operations. - Understand the threats, risks, and vulnerabilities that entry-level cybersecurity analysts are most focused on. - Comprehend the purpose of security frameworks and controls. - Describe the confidentiality, integrity, and availability (CIA) triad. - Explain the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) framework. - Explore and practice conducting a security audit. - Use a playbook to respond to threats, risks, and vulnerabilities....

The course content is just the right pace. I feel the review questions could be harder but on the other hand it has given me a good boost of confidence being able to learn so quickly and accurately.

نواجه صعوبات في الترجمة وعدم مطابقتها لمفردات اللغات الأخرى، ماذا لو تم توفير محتوى الدورات باللغات التي يوفرها برنامج الشهادة وليس الاكتفاء بالترجمة سيكون الأمر رائعاً للغاية، شكراً.

I enjoyed the course, just with I didn't want to look at a person with lip piercings. That was off putting and turned my stomach. I just listened and looked away from the screen.

Buena combinación entre teoría, ejercicios en la vida real y usos prácticos. No desborda de tanta información como el primer curso, pero tampoco está tan básico como el primero.

Although it teaches all about cybersecurity and its fields it is not for someone who has made the decision to pursue a sector in cybersecurity as it teaches everything generally

I learned more than just playing it safe in managing security risk. The course was so detailed enough to talk about the regulatory bodies and how they impact security

Excellent introductory material really enjoyed this. Would appreciate maybe a video or two on the SIEM tools specifically, like how they're used in everyday tasks.
