On the cybersecurity bundle, my new hero dsacco posted[1]:

So, I've read most of these. Here's a tour of what is definitely useful and what you should probably avoid.

Anyone read enough of these to do the same for this bundle? If so, thanks in advance for saving me a truckload of time!

Mind posting the link to that comment? I purchased that bundle and would be curious to see where to start.
His comment was excellent, but I kind of disagree with his comment on The Art of Memory Forensics.

Its basically a book about learning to use volatility to perform memory forensics. If you want to do that, its one of the best ways to learn. However, if you want a more general, non-tool based approach to the concepts (rather than performing memory forensics), perhaps his other suggestions are better sources.

Weak.

It doesn't look like almost any of these can be bought with bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency.

This is really sad. Humble bundle was the first item I bought using bitcoin.
Looks like they just updated it to allow for BTC purchasing.
Remember that you can select entities like the EFF for charity donations!
Are any of these any good? I don't know anything beyond the basics, but I'd like to learn.
