My review to IBM Cyber Security Analyst Professional Certificate
Certificate Level: Mid-level
Difficulty: Medium
To whom this course: Entry-level analysts — Security analysts — Incident response teams
In this video, I reviewed one of the most valuable and well-established certificates in cybersecurity. The specialization consists of 7 courses and one capstone as follow:
Introduction to Cybersecurity Tools & Cyber Attacks
Cybersecurity Roles, Processes & Operating System Security
Cybersecurity Compliance Framework & System Administration
Network Security & Database Vulnerabilities
Penetration Testing, Incident Response and Forensics
Cybersecurity Capstone: Breach Response Case Studies
IBM Cybersecurity Analyst Assessment
In order to obtain the professional certificate you need to pass all the courses and of course, pass the final assessment.
Now one word about the final assessment. It’s not like the rest of the assessments you see on Coursera because:
1- It doesn’t show the feedback about the right and wrong answers
2- The assessment is long and contains 70 questions.
3- The questions cover everything and are detailed and tricky. Make sure you study everything thoroughly
4- The grader shows the highest grade you achieved if you do the test more than one time so don’t be duped that the test is rigged or bugged.
Most likely you will do the assessment more than once to pass as I did 🙂
