Incorrect information
This course drastically needs an update. VPNs do not provide "anonymous IPs", they provide the IP of the service, which can still be associated with your account and tracked. The notion that cybersecurity is just about protecting devices and systems has it backwards, it's about keeping users (corporate, external, etc) safe.
I found the course very interesting and enjoyed it.
Excellent course
Details and User Friendly
Easy to follow, detailed and user friendly
Wonderful Course with detailed and concise explanation of topics
Educator explanation style is really good and Questions in between the topic helped a lot. Overall good course with practical examples and more importantly precise and concise too the point course. Thanks!
helpful, packed with advice
… Not really something I have to deal with much in my line of work to date, but I appreciated why I was asked to take the course- the explanations of scams and so on was illuminating and a good' public service' on its own I felt. Some of the questions were a little difficult to work out, particularly those with complex definitions or couched with long sentences that could in fact almost be treated as separate questions.
Frustrating
On several occasions my progress was not stored when there were internet interruption problems. Lost hours of my life repeating from the beginning wasting valuable time.
Very good

Wrong, in several places
Firstly, having 5 stars as the default entry of course rating on this survey is terrible statistics. It should default to no answer, in order not to bias responses (and failing to do so implies you intend to massage the statistics). With regards to secure passwords, the UK government (via the NCSC) now recommends a secure password be three (or more) random words, rather than the abomination of letters and numbers you suggested. The reason is that password length has a much bigger impact on secureness than swapping letters for numbers or using exclamation marks – and passwords made of actual words are much MUCH easier to remember (and thus people don't write them on postit notes stuck on the bottom of their screen). The advice your course gives is not current to NCSC guidelines.
