The reading link to Week 03's Framework and their purpose is Broken. Please Fix it. Everything else seemed perfect. I would recommend this course for people who think of starting their careers in CyS.

Explain subjects in difficult terms. This course is hard to understand, requires certain knowledge, and is not for beginners.
