Computer Security

Web Systems and Technology Engineering
  • ApresentaçãoPresentation
    Computer Security is a course that introduces the fundamentals of cybersecurity and the pillars of confidentiality, integrity, availability, and authenticity, enabling students to identify risks, define security policies, and apply encryption techniques, penetration testing, and auditing using frameworks such as OWASP. 
  • ProgramaProgramme
       Introduction The threat and vulnerability landscape Knowing the enemy Encryption systems Using virtual machines to set up a test environment Operating system security and privacy Security bugs and vulnerabilities Social Engineering and Social Media Security domains Security through isolation and compartmentalization Virtual isolation
  • ObjectivosObjectives
        Studying the fundamentals of computer security are studied from a theoretical and practical point of view; Provide students with the necessary skills to be able to specify a security policy, implement it using the appropriate mechanisms, verify the compliance of that implementation and monitor its operation through testing, ensuring the pillars of computer security.  At the end of the curricular unit students should be able to: - Identify key risks affecting information systems as well as key checks to override them; -Specify and apply security policies to specific situations; -Use encryption techniques in real or simulated contexts; Perform penetration tests; Master security frameworks, example: OWASP; -Use audit, vulnerability testing and intrusion detection software. -Use systems to ensure the pillars of computer security: confidentiality, integrity, availability and authenticity..
