Overview
Feeling vulnerable online?
Worried about hackers stealing your passwords or personal information?
In today's digital world, cyber threats are everywhere. But what if you could take control and learn how to defend yourself?
This course equips you with the knowledge to outsmart hackers and become a cybersecurity expert, even if you're a complete beginner.
