Coursera: Google Cybersecurity Professional Certificate

I just completed the Google Cybersecurity Professional Certificate on Coursera. I had wanted to do it for a while now. It seemed like a good first course to take, especially with the discount for the Security+ certification.

It provides a good introduction to cybersecurity concepts and tools. However, despite what Google implies, I don’t think it’s enough to qualify someone to work as a cybersecurity analyst. I was aware of this before I completed the course, so there’s no deception here.
