I found the Postgraduate Certificate in Security Audit Strategies to be a really useful course. The materials were relevant and up-to-date, and the instructors were friendly and helpful. I liked that the course covered a range of topics, from security frameworks to compliance and governance. The assignments were pretty challenging, but they helped me develop some valuable skills, like how to conduct a security risk assessment and create a mitigation plan. One thing that would be cool is if they added more examples from different industries, like healthcare or finance. Overall, though, I'm pretty happy with the course and think it's a good choice for anyone who wants to learn about security auditing.
