Learning outcomes The objectives of this Course Unit are to consolidate the knowledge acquired in the course unit of computer security and to study advanced topics in implementation and engineering of secure software systems.
It aims for the development of a critical conscience in the student regarding security problems in data communications and in the software during all of its development phases.
At the end of the course unit, the student should be able to: properly implement and integrate modern cryptography mechanisms and protocols; correctly configure security mechanisms in operating systems; identify security issues in software and means to minimize them, particularly in Web applications; enforce security by design and practice the development of applications with fewer vulnerabilities, based on a more rigorous process of software engineering and on the design of penetration testing.
