Network Security and Cryptography

Advanced methodologies selected from symmetric and public key cryptography, network security protocols and infrastructures, identification, secret sharing, anonymity, intrusion detection, firewalls, defending network attacks, and performance in communication networks.

Prerequisites: solid familiarity with basic concepts in networks, network security, and applied cryptography.

In particular, it is strongly recommended that the following courses (or their equivalents) should be taken, or at least audited, prior to this course in order to obtain the relevant background:

· CEG4185 or COMP3203 (computer networks)

· CSI4139/CEG4399 or  COMP4108 (secure computer systems)

· CSI4108 or ELG5373 or COMP4109 (cryptography)
