Our Verdict

This 11-hour course delves into the intricacies of SSL/TLS certificates installation while equipping learners with working knowledge across diverse platforms. Although subtitle challenges can be frustrating at times and Let's Encrypt implementation with NGINX in a production environment requires further documentation, students will come away with an accomplished understanding of TLS/SSL fundamentals and applications.

What We Liked

Comprehensive exploration of SSL/TLS certificates installation, including detailed coverage of certificate ecosystem and configuration process on NGINX and Apache web servers
Instructor's in-depth expertise in cryptography and chain trusts, backed by clear, concise, and engaging explanations of complex concepts
Practical walkthroughs on implementing TLS/SSL with various vendors (Comodo, OpenSSL, etc.) across different platforms
Inclusion of real-world scenarios alongside thorough theoretical explanations

Potential Drawbacks

Lack of practical guidance for using Let's Encrypt certificates with NGINX in a production environment
Subtitles hard to follow due to thick accent and occasional mismatch between audio and text, causing comprehension difficulties
