SQL for Security Specialist

This course is designed specifically for SQL Security Specialists with a focus on PostgreSQL. It assumes a solid foundation in SQL and guides learners through advanced topics specific to PostgreSQL. You'll explore crucial concepts, such as complex queries, performance optimization, and database administration tasks unique to PostgreSQL. To ensure an immersive, self-paced learning experience, this course employs a video-free approach. Instead, assignments feature concise explanations, complemented by visuals and executable SQL code examples. These examples come with suggested modifications, encouraging learners to explore further and deepen their understanding through practical application. Participants will receive immediate feedback through a range of assessment items. These assessments progress from quick comprehension checks (multiple choice, fill in the blank, and unscrambling SQL queries) to small, manageable coding exercises that can be completed in minutes rather than hours.
