This course is providing the entry-level information both for hobbyists and IT professionals. It does help in case the student knows a programming language to follow the explanations provided by Mashur and Evgeny. However, they provide some resources for those want to learn about the programming language. Overall, this course gave me the base to understand and be aware of potential issues related to cyber security breaches. Thank you!

It's been excellent so far. I have more experience with Ruby then Python so am having to look up syntax during the code example videos but it hasn't been hard. The code examples are fairly intuitive. The theory lectures are jam packed with info, great work guys!
