    Awesome thanks for the list!

    I’ve order some of the books from Amazon already and now I’m reading about the courses.

    Also, I’m loving the Complete Cyber Security Course.

  • Anushan says:

    Hey Mr.nathan im very much interested in your course contain, i wanted to know whether you all have any job vacancies related to cyber security in ypur company???

  • JW says:

    Hi Nathan,

    I purchased one of your courses, some time ago (1/22/17), but never completed it. The content I did view was freaking amazing and I do plan to go back to it. One thing I never asked though – Would one learn enough from your courses to start a consultancy as you do, or would you recommend one to find a job first? The cyber security industry should be grateful they have someone like you providing such high quality training. Thanks Nathan!

    Onward and Upward,
    J.W.

  • JW says:

    Hello Nathan,

    I guess we can scratch my question, I think I got the answer I was looking for when your career guide arrived. Thanks!

    Onward and Upward,
