I have just finished this course. Very informative. I have also completed the Google Cyber Course and even though some things were covered in both, CompTIA has more labs - which was great. As someone who learns visually also, I feel Google had more video content which helped. I managed to complete the course in 31 hours it said at the end. It's not a race and I wouldn't recommend trying to fly through it - I just learn better by diving deep into things and powering through. I think the recommended time would be 1-3months in line with the other similar courses. Happy Learning! R.D

It covers a lot of different aspects but is great to set a real foundation for studying for CompTIA test.

outdated you cant complete the tasks on the virtual machine. update or remove this course. Waste of time

It's really good to start journey with cyber

Great course for the foundation of Cyber Security. Course is very diverse, giving hands-on-experience in shell scripting, threat management, information security, disaster recovery, SIEM and backup procedures.

Good one!

I recently completed the CompTIA A+ Cyber course on Coursera and found it to be an excellent introduction to IT and cybersecurity. The course covers essential topics such as threats and vulnerabilities, the CIA Triad, and various types of malware and social engineering tactics. The hands-on labs and real-world scenarios were invaluable for reinforcing theoretical knowledge. The course also provides a comprehensive understanding of risk management, security policies, and compliance. The structure is well-organized, and the content is current with cybersecurity trends. The instructors are knowledgeable and provide clear explanations, making complex concepts easier to grasp. Community engagement through study groups and forums added a collaborative learning experience. I also recommend enrolling in the CompTIA A+ Network course. About 80% of the content overlaps, making it easier and quicker to complete. Plus, you’ll earn two valuable certificates, boosting your IT and cybersecurity qualifications. For anyone starting a career in cybersecurity, this course is highly recommended. It prepares you well for the CompTIA A+ certification exam and a successful career in cybersecurity.

Very comprehensive course despite being beginner-friendly and the lab problems are very realistic that depicts actual cybersecurity problems that companies faced.

The best

Great Course

Simply horrible! The labs are nearly impossible to complete. I have 25+ years IT experience and thought this would be fun to take. DO NOT waste your time!
