I am currently a police detective in Washington D.C. I'm very new to understanding computers and how they work. The discussion of buffer overflow was way over my head but the course so far has been good

The instructor is okay, but you can tell he's pretty novice at this. The course itself basically gets your toe wet in Network +. At the end of the program, I really felt like it was just an advertisement for his other training courses. Meh.

Esperava mais do curso. Ao começar pelo título, onde o que é abordado no curso trata-se da certificação que obtenho e não tem muita correlação com CyberSecurity. A própria CompTIA lancará em breve uma certifição específica para este tema.

Great introduction to Cybersecurity. Instructor was engaging and did inform on a number of concepts. I loved the Kerberos explanation and cross site scripting... It was dumbed down enough for a novice to understand.
