I found the Graduate Certificate in Information Security Standards to be a solid course that provided a good foundation in security standards and best practices. As someone working in the IT industry in Egypt, I was looking for a course that would help me understand the importance of information security in today's digital landscape. The course content was well-structured, covering key topics such as security frameworks, threat analysis, and incident response. I appreciated the emphasis on practical skills, such as conducting security audits and implementing compliance programs. While some of the course materials could be improved, overall I was satisfied with the quality and relevance of the content. My only suggestion would be to include more regional case studies and examples to make the course more relatable to students from different parts of the world.
