Cybersecurity & Privacy is going to be the most useful course for my carrier because this is the first NPTEL course that will cover (course outline covers) Cybersecurity along with Privacy. This course will enhance my deep understanding towards Cybersecurity and privacy-related issues and help in solving problems (Information privacy or data privacy etc.).
