9 reviews for Self-Paced Microsoft PKI In-depth Online Training

  1. Charlie Kawasaki, CISSP, Software Diligence Services, and chief technical officer, PacStar

    “It’s a real treat and privilege to attend, I’m learning a ton, and it’s directly related to the work I do. The labs so far have been amazing. You are a master presenter, and an obvious master of the subject matter, which also makes it enjoyable.”

  2. David Machula, Information Technology Specialist 2, New York State Teachers’ Retirement System

    “In general, ADCS is one of the more complex Microsoft technologies to implement and while the initial setup can be challenging enough, the real test is how well it continues to function for the duration of its existence. With that in mind, I would definitely recommend the course to anyone intending to use PKI in their environment or to offer services in PKI consulting.”

  3. Stephen Yannantuono, Senior Principal Systems Engineer, Global Identity Management

    “Thanks again for the training, I really have to say you do an awesome job! I’ve told everyone here if we hire anyone and they need a PKI training that you’re THE guy to go to.”

  4. LV McCoy, Cryptographic Management & Operations Subject Matter Expert

    “The training allowed me to deepen my understanding of ADCS and boost my confidence as the PKI administrator for my enterprise. Great company and training! By far the best in the market.”

  5. Adam Berns, IT Systems Architect, Aruba Networks

    “I recently took the PKI Class that Mark Cooper offers. It was incredibly well done. I learned so much about how PKI works, how to set it up, manage it. If you need some PKI help, or training, you should really check out his class at PKI Solutions Inc. or his consulting services.”

  6. Jim Bjurefeldt, Technical Specialist, Verisec

    “One of the best trainings I ever attended!”

  7. Mark Steffen, Senior Security Engineer, PCC

  8. Chris Parson, Senior Systems Administrator, Midcontinent ISO

    “This was a great class on PKI. I learned a lot from it. Mark does an awesome job at explaining the content and provides insight from his experience when he worked for Microsoft.”

  9. Gary Green, principal cloud identity and encryption engineer, SAIC
