Cybersecurity

The course is structured in the following two parts: Background The first part of the course introduces the main concepts that are used in the rest of the course: Introduction to cybersecurity Concepts and terminology Identification and authentication Access control techniques Virus, trojan and, covert channels Main vulnerabilities of computer systems Analysis of the most widespread attacks: buffer overflow, cross-site scripting, SQL injection. Secure operating systems Security of group communications Security in cloud computing Security in wireless networks Secure protocols for wireless networks topology control Information security management systems Literature Analysis Each student will choose a topic from a list of possible topics and will give a talk to the rest of the class.

This course is part of the Master Degree in Computer Science and Cybersecurity, and requires knowledge of programming, operating systems, distributed systems, computer networks and, cryptography.

The exam consists of an oral presentation, and in submitting a report. Each student will give a seminar on a topic of their choice from a list of possible topics, and answer questions from the other students in the classroom. Students' participation in the questions&answers phase will be considered in the final grade. Students will also have to deliver a report describing how and in what measure they intend to solve a cybersecurity problem, which can be also related to the topic of their seminar. The final grade is calculated as follows: - 45% Literature Analysis and active participation - 45% Written research report - 10% Active participation to Question&Answer section. If for any reason students do not turn in most of the required above tests, then those students will be required to take an oral exam on the entire course programme, see. The weight of this final oral exam = 100%.
