Short and informative course. If you use the same login password across multiple sites, and don't use a password manager on your PC and mobile phone then you DEFINITELY need to take a look at the course. The information and assistance provided on this topic alone makes the course worthwhile. On the subject of Password Managers, as well as the ones recommended by the tutor, you might also want to take a look at SafeInTheCloud and/or Enpass. The are also very good, with the advantage that you only pay a one-off fee with no monthly subscriptions. Frankly nobody should be without a password manager in this day and age. The information on encryption and email is also spot on, and gave me some information and tools to consider using in the future. In summary, it's a good, short and informative course with no unnecessary filler.

Covers a lot of different aspects of securing your computing devices and your emails. There's enough detail for people to enable people to secure their systems and emails, but it is well paced and not overwhelming.
