Meilleurs avis pour WINDOWS OS FORENSICS
there are some mistakes (questions 4 and 45) in the final quiz.
A very good course. But need improvement, since it called Windows OS Forensics, it should cover more about Windows artifacts. But overall, great content. Thanks a lot.
Excellent Course with very clear cut explanations. Thank you !!!
A nice course by a nice instructor on a nice platform.
