I am currently preparing for this certificate, I have gained sufficient knowledge from Google's cybersecurity certificate to have a good grasp of the material I need to study to pass its exam.
This certificate taught me the basics of cybersecurity, from the protocols that govern the virtual world and the laws behind keeping data safe to technologies like Splunk, Google Chronicle, Python and SQL.
This course taught me the basics of Python in addition to obtaining data from the web through XML and JSON parsing as shown here in some of my projects. Currenly, I am on the third course of the certificate where I am learning more about SQL and database CRUD operations.
Here, I was introduced to linear algebra and how it can be used in some algorithms such as PageRank. Parts of the assignments were done using Python as shown below
I took this course as a way to start my journey into web development. Through this program, I learned JavaScript, HTML and CSS as well as React. I have improved my skills since then and used other crowd-sourced resources and technologies.
Through this program, I am currently learning more about Python and its procedural, functional and object-oriented programming; The course will then move towards servers, databases and technologies like Linux and MySQL.
I am taking the course as a way to expand my knowledge in cybersecurity and learn what penetration testers need to know in the real world
