Student Testimonials!
This course is easily digestible and valuable because when you are trying to pivot into a new space it's hard to know the type of language to use so this has been a huge help. Now I understand the terminology associated with the SOC Analyst role.
Also, your explanations were helpful. Before I didn't know what a SOC Analyst would do or how I could relate it to my interview responses specifically for what a SOC Analyst does. Now I can do that.
I am so excited!
