    A few practice exam questions directly contradict the text in the readings or video. ( example:. Text says Veracrypt/ truecrypt protects servers and files/ folders but in exam you have to select false indicating it does not protect folders/files ( I think an unneeded “not” is in the question text). Example 2: PGP first sentence in text says it is used for email but in module exam you must only select S/MIME. This is misleading. Example 3: Video says Diffie Helman use for symmetric cryptography but that is not fully true. Also used in PKC which is asymmetric as called out in the reading). The instructor speaks way too slowly - had to play at 1.5-2x speed. Need more visuals of how all encryption protocols work together and in what use cases.

    The speaker from the video materials is not good for presenting the materials. He speaks in a monotonous manner which might be good for lullaby stories but definitely not for serious topics where you need to use your voice to stress more important details and focus the listeners attention of specific points.

    Imagine giving your student a false flag of cheating because he is smart. I take my reputation seriously, and your system is incompetent. Conduct a schedule for me to take this in quiz in front of a proctor with cameras pointing in every angle. Though, I expect heavy compensation as a result of wasting my time. Email me, or message me to get in contact. Disgusting.
