Overview
What you will study
The Internet Security course offered by Singapore University of Technology and Design applies foundational techniques to the design of internet protocols that achieve crucial security properties (e.g., confidentiality, authenticity, and message integrity) against powerful but realistic attacks (e.g., eavesdropping, impersonation, man-in-the-middle, and playback).
Students will also learn important internet security services such as secure emails, secure transport (SSL/TLS), secure network (IPsec), and virtual private network (VPN). Cohort classes give active learning opportunities for students to apply their knowledge in problem solving under the instructor’s guidance. Students will also have a chance to apply OS shell and C/Java software tools towards analysing and implementing secure internet software.
IT professionals (e.g., engineers, managers, consultants) will gain a broad and practical understanding of major security threats in the internet and corresponding defenses against them. They will also acquire skills to conceptualize, design, and implement secure network applications.
Outcomes
By the end of this course, participants should be able to / can expect to:
- Explain the vulnerability of network applications to cyberattacks.
- Evaluate internet protocols and applications for key cybersecurity properties.
- Design secure and resilient network applications against attacks, without unnecessarily losing efficiency.
- Explain and apply important secure internet services such as secure emails, SSL/TLS, IPsec, VPN, and Wifi security.
- Command OS shell and C/Java software tools and modules for internet experiments.
