The course is well paced and they get you comfortable with the topics even though we do not have any sort of prior exposure in this field. It is very good for the beginners who are new to this field

I think this is a great start for anyone who is starting from absolute zero. I think that since I've been toying with the idea of getting into Cybersecurity for 2 years now, it was a great refresher!
