Course Objectives:This course begins with the basics of security engineering technology, including concepts of security protocols, human-computer interface issues, access controls, cryptography and distributed systems. The class will explore security engineering concepts and hardware and software required to design secure information systems. Topics include engineering activities that span the entire trusted system life cycle, including concepts such as security architecture and current practices and procedures when security engineering expertise is needed. Other concepts that will be explored include requirements analysis, design, development, operational integration, installation and maintenance. Conventional computer security issues will be explored as they relate to different environments. Other topics to be addressed include organizational policies and how computers interact with corporate politics, how we gain confidence that the system will work as it is intended, and how security engineering can best be managed.
