It was great but it would be even better if the knowledge checks could be at least 3 questions.

Great content! Quick course to review the most important from a 21 hours long course. Thank you.

TOO fast for someone who wants to actually understand the concept. Intro during the Transition of videos is non existence. Definitely not for beginners. Might be worth for someone who wants to revise everything real quick.

I had an interview and let me tell you boy, spent a good 3 hours watching this content and I cracked my dream job. This content could be scope and mind map for InfoSec beginners or a best cheat sheet before an exam/interview. Worth my money and thanks!

Was looking high and low for a concise course for Sec+ and this absolutely fit the bill. Thank you!!

Please fix the audio, i can only hear it from my left ear when using head phones when is not an intro video. Other than that i found value in the course.

Jon wastes no time. This course covers material in a precise and concise manner. Jon’s examples and layout are clear and make it easy to compartmentalize and keep the concepts and topics in an organized manner. I liked how the assessments are for comprehension. This course helped me grasp material at my own pace!

This past Spring semester in school, I have taken a course similar to Security + called, digital forensics. We learned about threats/vulnerabilities and how to be prepared for any type of threatening situation will happen. Overall, this is a pretty good training course to take.
By Fausto Herrera on 5/11/2020
The ComptTIA Security+ (SYO-501) Certification Bootcamp was excellent. The material was presented in a clear and concise manner. I would recommend taking CompTIA Network+ first in order to understand the material better. The short quiz at the end of each section are not design to prepare you to take the actual exam. They help review the section so that you can dive deeper if you don't have a good understanding.
