Id: 041944 Credits Min: 3 Credits Max: 3

Description

The course objectives are to -(1) train students on designing, implementing, and evaluating operating systems, enterprise networks, protocols, and services that are secure from modern threats and attacks and (2) train students on performing security and vulnerability analysis of the aforementioned technologies. The focus will be on highly used protocols such as Secure Shell (SSH), Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP), Active Directory (AD), Domain Name System (DNS), Transport Layer Security (TLS), Virtual Private Network (VPN), OpenID Connect (OID), OAuth, and services such as email servers and web servers. The overarching goal is to understand the underlying principles behind the technologies, what makes these technologies inherently insecure and the steps to make them more resilient to attacks.
