-Access Control - Identification, authentication, and authorisation; trust management.+Upon completion of the course the students should be able to:
  
-Network Security - attacks, intrusion detection, auditing and forensics, firewalls, malicious software, packet monitoring and other tools/techniques for finding network security related problems.+  * Explain popular operating systems, network, password-based, and application layer attacks 
 +  * Write intrusion detection signatures 
 +  * Design and deploy security controls (e.g. firewalls, honeypot,password policy etc) 
 +  * Discover vulnerability in computer systems 
 +  * Analyze and alter network traffic 
 +  * Explain and identify different types of buffer overflow 
 +  * Design secure software applications
  
-Operating System Security - threats, vulnerability, and control, password management, accounts and privileges 
- 
-Application Software Security - design of secure systems, evaluation, Java security, buffer overflows, database security, client-side and server-side securities, tamper resistant software and hardware, finding vulnerabilities, developing patches, patch distribution. 
- 
-Thinking Evil (understand the enemy so that you can design better software and systems) - how to build a virus, trojan, worm, (how to detect them and break them); real-world vulnerability detection.
