It's a good introductory course that covers the main subjects of cybersecurity. I'd like to see some of the subjects in a more detailed explanation, because they were merely presented to the audience.

Great Course Content and Explanation. Some Audio problems cost it *. Audio could have been better for most of the course parts. Thank You IBM for offering this course. Thank you all the instructors.
