Overall, this was a great course. It provided me with a solid foundation in python, and it enabled me to use the python skills I learned to build useful security tools. I also enjoyed how the course demonstrated each cybersecurity concept with applicable coding examples. I have yet to come across a course that actually shows how code directly relates to cybersecurity concepts. This is a great course for anyone who would like to see the correlation between cybersecurity and python (other coding languages as well: PHP and Ruby on Rails).

A piece of feedback I have is that the course examples are written for a Linux computer. This meant that I had to translate the commands used in the course into commands that would work on a Windows computer. This was a minor inconvenience, but a bit annoying nonetheless. Overall, I really enjoyed taking this course, and I highly recommend it.

The course was informative but as a Python Developer I felt like there wasn't enought information connected to Python. For example There were many examples with Rails or PHP but not enough with Django or Python in general. And I started this course because I was thinking that I can code Python along with learning about cybersecurity but it wasn't always the case.
The sound sometimes was too low and it was hard to hear while the next video was very loud, so I had to adjust the sound all the time.
And speaking about the information in the code - it is actually quite important and good to know.

Der Dozent weiß, wovon er redet, und gibt Einblicke in eine Vielzahl von Cyber Security Themen. Manchmal fehlt mir jedoch das Backup-Wissen (z.B., was ein "Port" einer Website ist).

Bei der Tool-Entwicklung hat am Anfang sehr viel nicht geklappt, sodass ich mehrere Stunden brauchte, um etwas ähnliches wie "Sublime" zu installieren.
