Good contents. The course is well structured. I am giving 4 stars because there were grading problems for 2 questions. No matter what answer I pick, the system grades it as incorrect.

It is the best given the insight of the issues within Security systems and on what to do when one has been subjected to cyber crime, and how to maintain trust safe working environment.
