Our Verdict
Snort Intrusion Detection, Rule Writing, and PCAP Analysis course offers a solid foundation in Snort rule writing and network security analysis. While real-world examples enhance practical experience, the lack of explanations for thought processes and commands may leave students craving more depth. Outdated virtual machine setup instructions and rushed content add to mild frustrations but do not detract significantly from the overall learning experience.
