The course is well paced and they get you comfortable with the topics even though we do not have any sort of prior exposure in this field. It is very good for the beginners who are new to this field

this is a good course for beginners who just start their carrier in cybersecurity and when you go further with it, it would become more interesting because of the exercises and hands on practices.
