I think this is a great start for anyone who is starting from absolute zero. I think that since I've been toying with the idea of getting into Cybersecurity for 2 years now, it was a great refresher!

For a foundation course, this one was easy to understand, it explained all basic concepts in a fluid way and built up the base for the upcoming courses. I'm eager to move on to the other courses now.
