Learning Outcomes

This course aims to instill in the students an attitude of "constructive distrust" when conceiving, designing, developing and operating systems containing information technologies (software, components, etc. The student must be able to apply the security engineering instruments in an effective way, respecting the professional and ethical aspects in the use of existing solutions. Considering the sensitivity and relevancy of the subjects, the student should value and be aware of new developments. After completion, students will be able to:
CO1: Evaluate/test the security of computer applications - B4
CO2: Apply/use information security concepts and methods - B2
CO3: Analyse/employ secure software programming techniques - B3
CO4: Evaluate/test safe networks using attack/defence techniques - B4
CO5: Classify/explain access controls, registration and monitorization - B1
CO6: Explain/resume security and contingency plans - B1
CO7: Describe state of art and discuss the impact current developments - B1
