Contenu très intéressant avec un formateur de terrain.la formation aurait mérité d’être proposé sur plus de jours. Les sujets sont bien trop vaste pour être abordés en 2 jours.

Formateur bienveillant avec une réelle volonté de partage. Le fait de pouvoir pratiquer directement sur la plateforme était un vrai plus. En revanche, la formation manquait parfois de structure, et les objectifs de certaines actions n’étaient pas toujours suffisamment clairs. J’ai également eu le sentiment que la formation était davantage orientée vers l’infrastructure que vers la cybersécurité.
