Prerequisites
Internet Programming and Digital Images, Algorithms and data structuresIntended learning outcomes
The course provides the participants with basic yet fundamental knowledge in networking and security. The overall aim is to give practical skills in designing, analyzing and implementing secure applications. After the course the student will be able to:
- discuss types of attacks and defenses.
- explain the internet protocols IP, TCP, UDP and ICMP, and their security implications.
- describe typical steps in break-in attacks, denial-of-service (DoS) attacks and malware attacks.
- formulate basic cryptographic concepts including symmetric and public key encryption, message authentication digital certificates and public key infrastructure.
- explain the cryptographic system SSL/TLS and the Java secure socket extension (JSSE).
- describe the basic filtering operations of firewalls and common firewall architectures.
Course content
Overview of computer networks and the Internet. Protocols and layers. Client-server model. Overview of network layers and routing. Firewalls, authentication and elements of cryptography: encryption and data integrity techniques. Overview of application security issues with particular emphasis on web-service and e-commerce security.
Teaching and working methods
The teaching consists of lectures, exercises, laboratory work and individual assignments.
