Can someone suggest me a free cybersecurity course as me being a complete beginner.

As the title says, can someone suggest me a free course? I will buy the google one for certification afterwards.
Cybersecurity is a wide field, do you want to study something specific ? Do you know what job you want to do ?

Otherwise, if you want to start with something more "general", you should take a look at Security+ from CompTIA, take a look here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KiEptGbn...qcSKEIDDuv

I don't know Google certs, and if they're appreciated by recruiters

I've passed the cert few months ago, if it can help : https://hackforums.net/showthread.php?tid=6298287
Hey hey,

I would suggest beginning with the following.

Junior Cybersecurity Analyst

It has 6 free courses with a CCST cert. at the end.

Goodluck!

He's talking about the CompTIA cybersecurity course and certification. No employer looks for Coursera certs. It's like Testout. It probably doesn't hurt anything to list it on a resume, and you can use it to show some training, but it will not get you your first job. All my certs can't get me a job doing Tier 1 helpdesk or inventory management.


CPTS is relatively inexpensive. It still gets zero hits on Indeed, but HackTheBox has good rep. It's also a practical exam, which is important.
Wow I think I actually found something for you here.
