Advanced Computer Networks and Security

The aim of the course is to enable students to develop specialised theoretical and practical knowledge of different computer network protocols, security risks and threats, weaknesses in communication systems and computer networks and the corresponding methods of protection and detection of attacks, and to introduce typical implementations of IoT (the internet of things). A further focus of the course is on the design and practical implementation of security solutions and surveillance in TCP/IP network and the performance of penetration tests of communication systems.

For international students teaching takes place online without meeting at the campus. For exchange students teaching takes place on campus.
