Kevin Bock HACS408T Expecting an A Anonymous 05/18/2024	Incredible teacher and incredible class. The homeworks will definitely take up a lot of time throughout your week, but Kevin is very available to give hints and pointers when necessary. If you don't already have a good technical background, this class might be pretty rough for you. As previous reviews have said, it is more similar to the workload of a 400-level CMSC course than any of the other ACES courses that I've taken so far. If you have the time to take this class and it sounds interesting to you, you really should take it though. It has been my favorite course that I've taken in college by quite some distance, and the final KOTH project was very interesting and very fun. Kevin is also a very friendly guy who clearly is passionate about this stuff, and is extremely open to feedback. Can't go wrong with this course if you can handle the workload.
Kevin Bock HACS408T Expecting an A Anonymous 10/09/2023	Took in Spring 2023 Treat this class as the equivalent of a 400-level CMSC course and not the typical ACES course. It can be challenging at times and there is a decent sized homework every week. If you're new to offensive security, the homework can get really really frustrating, but there's a pretty good system for getting help if you start early in the week. That being said, Kevin is probably one of the best professors at this school. The curriculum has been refined over the past few years and he's really good at teaching it in a digestible manner, especially to those with little experience. You will learn so much throughout this course, and final koth project is really cool.
