Good course and content so far. The long pauses between sentences can make listening a bit difficult. It would be easier to follow if the instructor spoke at a more conversational pace. It's an online class so we can back up if we miss something...

Big problem with the end segment of the Cert Authority module! The video for that segment must be missing because it's audio track plays over the Attack Surface Analyzer module's first segment. You pretty much lose out on both segments (about 10 minutes of video) because it's impossible to follow.
