Synopsis:

The course gives a professional and academic introduction to computer and information security using the ethical hacking approach, which enables improved defence thanks to adopting an attacker mindset when discovering vulnerabilities, hands-on experience with different attacks, facilitates linking theory and practice in significant areas of one's digital literacy, and can therefore be utilized by (future) security professionals, (informed) decision-makers, (savvy) users and developers alike.

This course is taught in English.

Requirements:

Recommended knowledge: OS Linux, web applications, database systems (SQL), basics of computer networks, and cryptography. It is an advantage to have the following courses completed or take them together with BI-EHA: BI-PS1, BI-DBS, BI-BEZ, BI-PSI a BI-TWA.1

Syllabus of lectures:

1. Introduction to Ethical Hacking and Penetration Testing

2. Sniffing, Spoofing & Traffic Analysis

3. Web Security I

4. Web Security II

5. Web Security III

6. Wireless Security

7. Authentication, Credentials, Passwords

8. Scoring

9. Operating Systems Security

10. Android Security

12. Cloud Security

Syllabus of tutorials:

Lectures are intertwined with exercises/tutorials.

Study Objective:

Upon completion of the course, the students will:

* be introduced to (both theory and practice of) common computer and information security vulnerabilities in their interdisciplinary nature

* be able to perform basic penetration testing tasks (as defined by pentest-standard.org) using software tools and their own program code

* understand the broader context of cybersecurity (macro level), the wide range of related topics for further self-driven education and/or professional /academic specialization, and become savvier ICT users and developers (micro level)

* perceive ethical hacking as a 'problem-discovery' and 'problem-solving' tool (as opposed to 'problem-creating' tool)
