Hi, I'm Mashrur, I'm a full-time programming instructor specializing in programming fundamentals, web application development, machine learning and cyber security. I have been a technology professional for over a decade and have degrees in Computer Science and Economics.
My niche is building comprehensive career focused technology courses for students entering new/complex and challenging fields in today's technology space. This is a nice segway for me, since my real passion is building and tinkering with programming languages. Ilove everything to do with development and learning about new tools and technologies. My favorite languages are Python and Ruby on Rails, and my favorite tech fields are web app development, machine learning and data-analytics (which is where Ruby on Rails and Python fall into place nicely). Iencourage my students to focus on these technologies as well.
In my past (corporate) life, I worked with Enterprise Software Systems with roles played in analysis, development, management and training. I led projects using both agile and waterfall methodologies and thus am well versed in the inner workings of the software development and delivery world.
During my time in corporate America, I realized how much I enjoyed training new hires and new team members and helping them succeed. I dedicated a good amount of time over 7 years on-boarding new analysts and developers and then worked with them to build and maintain systems which put me in a unique posit

he is good but not exceed my expectation but I am still in the beginning

By Lucy de Rojas on 7/10/2020

very extensive course well structured and managed. worth trying it out.

By Sai bharani on 7/5/2020

they can improve more like how the root and directry is added btw sublime txt to python and work module.
but overall the course brings and exposure to python coding from scratch.

By W. Daniel Rochester on 6/1/2020

The course doesn't get into very much detail and as such the python implementations are not very useful. The encryption section also doesn't even make sense. The final program of the encryption section isn't even an encryption algorithm - you aren't able to go from encrypted text (binary) back to the original message. I would say it's more like hashing, but that's not even correct either as you get a different 'hash' every time you run the program (with the same input). So basically the encryption section is useless.

Muy buen curso, la verdad bien explicado, me gust el contenido y me pareci muy til.
Gracias.

By Dipti Ranjan Swain on 3/27/2020

This course seems to be matching with my requirement. My requirement is to automate some of the Cybersecurity tasks in my day to day work

By Michael Stout on 2/2/2020

Yes, this is what I need. Had some problems with the video, but lowering the resolution helped. (Confirmed it's my limited netbook video.)
The information is well written and presented very well.
I haven't had any technical problems with the code from the course.
Having the python session helped a lot.
I am going to go back through the course now that I have a better foundation of the subject, to make sure I have a good grasp of the material.
-Thanks,
Mike

Yes, quite useful to grasp the OWASP top 10 and security basics not just the topics but the code too. Thanks for the great course!

By Elisabeth Sjlund on 9/20/2019

Good explanation and pedagogical. Also it covers what I wanna learn

By Tlhompho Matabane on 9/11/2019

very good

By Vineet Kumar Dash on 8/5/2019

This course is for somebody who wants to understand Cyber Security concepts in a detailed format.Instructor has used lot of small examples to make students understand the critical concepts of cyber security like SQL injections,XSS vulnerabilities etc.All in all it is a good course,somebody taking this courses will surely have a thorough understanding of all the different kind of vulnerabilities that can occur in any web application or any systems and will help the individual in marching forward to more advanced level.
