This course talks about the very initial phase of the Cyber Security concept which is information gathering as is an integral part of Ethical Hacking. This also helps Cybersecurity professionals and companies to assess their security posture in the real world scenario so that they can understand the information that is exposed to the outside world. This helps them to protect the information in the Cyberworld so that they do not fall prey to Cyber Security breaches(which is the biggest threat in the internet paradigm). It covers all the aspects of information gathering in various verticals and also talks about the vectors to collect such information in the real world. It shows real-world examples with a demonstration so better understand the topic at hand. One does not need specialized knowledge in the Cybersecurity field to understand the course. However, it is equally worth mentioning that one needs to have a bit of understanding in this area of IT systems and interest in the IT security domain so that it gives you a smooth understanding of the topic. The course is divided into multiple sections with theoretical understanding followed by a demonstration against the real systems. I am sure that the student will find this course useful and helpful in their job profiles in the said domain.
