Course
Linux command line foundations
This course is designed to get the learner started on using Linux and the Linux command line. We spend time building students' confidence with the Linux command line so that really in-depth boot camps won't leave the learner struggling with topics like syntax.
Course description
This course gets the learner right into the thick of the command line from the Linux perspective. In this course, we build on the things you've learned how to do in the Windows Command Line course. This course is an important step if you plan on pursuing a role such as entry-level pentester, cybersecurity analyst or basically any technical cybersecurity role. You will come away with a good understanding of the Linux terminal.
