The course was informative, audio was not clear for some parts other than that it was good.

The content is good, but 10 minute sessions of someone talking to single agenda slides is slightly disappointing. Hopefully, the displays improve to match the commentary

I was hoping it would be more geared toward threat hunting, showing examples of how to use ArcSight while hunting down threats. It would also help if it were presented with a little more enthusiasm, or maybe even more fast paced.

Should have more structured explanations- perhaps more powerpoints and/or visuals because the small lack of voice over organization its a little hard to follow along

It's very good course ,it helped me alot..Thank you Hatem..

The presenter's accent was too heavy for me to understand... most of the times Captions were not helpful at all - misrepresents what was said Basically a guided reading / walk-through of the ArcSight 101 document Presenter knowledge on subject matter was a 10/10 though. It's a pity he could not relay it to me / I couldn't get it
By Ivan Anaraki on 2/29/2020
It does not seems to be very professional yet, very poor slides so far, awful auto generated subtitle (or someone with absolute no IT and Security Knowledge wrote the subtitle)
By Srinivas dudaka on 1/13/2020
All videos are just reading the PDF document which is not much useful for SIEM Training. this information anyone can get from online. It would really appreciate if they provide practical oriented videos instead of reading PDF document.
