This course gave me great insights into the network security domain while explaining different types of DB vulnerabilities. A quick revision of my Cyber Security and Computer Networks subjects. ;>

Course overall was very good - but thought the Guardium section felt like one giant advertisement. Could have showed off multiple tools or talked in general through the concepts. Otherwise, good course.

The Course was very interesting and challenging. I've received a great deal of information that I'm sure I may need in the future. However, I sometimes have difficulty following some of the instructors.

I think it was missing some more practical examples, not only on the IBM software. Overall a good course, good explanations and gives the basics.

Also, I think the sound quality cold have been better

A wonderful and nicely structured course for a beginner. Audio quality isn't matching the standard of other courses offered in coursera which should be improved in near future.

Please try to make it more interacting like making sql injection statement by users them self and seeing how the output changes, it would be great if it was there.

I thought the course information was good. I do think the transcriptions need a little work to reflect what is actually being said by the instructors.

Good in theory, but Better hands-on and practical experience would have been appreciated.

Instructors were real-world practitioners, loved them!

There were some problems with audio quality in the last week, and sometimes the teachers would ramble rather than getting to the point.
