The course was a great entryway into the Cybersecurity field, finding out a lot of information about potential careers and what is necessary for a Cybersecurity career. I think for the first module, I'd love a bit more reading, or specifically, some more information from the videos could be implanted into some readings, so that one can build a quick reference for some answers.

Faltan los subtítulos en español, que serían de gran ayuda en ciertas ocasiones (sobre todo si luego en los cuestionarios estarán las preguntas en ese idioma). Sin ser por eso, está muy bien el curso.
