COSC 55 Security and Privacy

The migration of important social processes to distributed, electronic systems raises critical security and privacy issues. Precisely defining security and privacy is difficult; designing and deploying systems that provide these properties is even harder. This course examines what security and privacy mean in these settings, the techniques that might help, and how to use these techniques effectively. Our intention is to equip computer professionals with the breadth of knowledge necessary to navigate this emerging area.

Prerequisite

COSC 50 or instructor permission. COSC 51 and COSC 30 are recommended.

The Timetable of Class Meetings contains the most up-to-date information about a course. It includes not only the meeting time and instructor, but also its official distributive and/or world culture designation. This information supersedes any information you may see elsewhere, to include what may appear in this ORC/Catalog or on a department/program website. Note that course attributes may change term to term therefore those in effect are those (only) during the term in which you enroll in the course.
