Course objectives
Students work an various aspects of cryptography and IT security, also help with the research projects of the lab (LaBAK - the Laboratory of security and applied cryptography).
Syllabus
  • Biometric systems (error rates, keyboard typing, voice verification, face recognition, fingerprints and their security, calculation of error rates). Network security (eavesdropping, security of active network entities, IDS systems, vulnerability scanning, wireless networks). Security of operating systems (Windows, Linux, rootkits, viruses, web applications).
Assessment methods (in Czech)
Výuka je jen zčásti rozvrhována, jinak studenti pracují podle vlastního uvážení a možností na úkolech zadaných vyučujícími. Domácích úkolů je celkem 14 po 10 bodech. Pro získání zápočtu je třeba získat 50 % bodů. Two hours per week are scheduled for seminars, otherwise students work on projects, homeworks etc. in their free time. There are 14 homeworks (10 points each). To get the credit (Z) 50% of the points are required.
