Thank for making and sharing this video for Cyber Security. I been into computer since I first got my first computer in 1998. I learned cyber security myself but not knowing I did. Now, for so many years I learn how to protect my self from online threats. So last year I came across Google cyber security courses and it interests me. So I would really want to take the course to gain a certificate as a cyber security. Thru a few jobs I had they always gave us company trainings on cyber security and I always had a good score taking the assignment at the end. So I'm ready to take the goggle course. 2026 is the year

This is an incredibly detailed and well-structured course for beginners. The depth of information is amazing. As a suggestion for improvement, given how much content is packed into this long video, it might be beneficial to add timestamp-based checkpoints or (as mentioned by others) perhaps link to short, interactive exercises in the description. This would help viewers pause and test their understanding of each module before moving to the next.

As a beginner in cybersecurity, I found this video incredibly helpful. Since the topics are covered from the ground up and presented as part of the Google Certificate program, it feels both reliable and very well-structured. The narration is fluent, and the technical terms are simplified perfectly for newcomers. I've been considering a career in this field, and this video gave me the exact motivation and foundational knowledge I needed to get started.

I am a 41 year old male and I never in my life would’ve thought I would be interested in this field. I’m take the Google online Cybersecurity course and I have learned so much. I was intimidated at first but the way the program is set up it’s like you can’t fail. So I appreciate Google for the opportunity to make a career in a field I never knew I’d be accepted in. Thank you
