02234 - Current Topics in System Security, Autumn 2011.

General Information

Time: Mondays 13 - 17
Location: Building 322, Room 033
Lecturers:
       Christian Damsgaard Jensen (CDJ), Building 322/226
       Nicola Dragoni (NDRA), Building 322/230

Objectives

The objective of the course is to provide knowledge of selected advanced topics in IT systems security, and to give participants practice at investigating topics in the literature and producing written and oral presentations which distill the essential features of a topic on the basis of a literature study.

Course Format

The course is given as a combination of seminar presentations, given by the participating and project work that will be documented through a final report.

Topics

Topics considered in the courses vary from year to year.
In 2011, the main topics will be related to computational trust and trust management.
