Synopsis:- Seminar, Praktische Informatik, Hauptstudium.
- 2h each week, over one semester (2 SWS).
- Students will present a selection of papers that will help you understand which threats exist, judge their significance and learn methods to defend your system against hackers. In addition you will explore the mathematical underpinnings of today's most common security tools and protocols. But most of all you will learn that there is no absolute security - i.e. your will have to learn ways to detect security breaches and recover from them.
Credits: In order to obtain credits for this seminar, participants are expected to: - Attend regularly (at least 90%).

- Presenters summarize their presentation and relevant discussion on the Seminar's WIKI page within 2 weeks.
- Presentations may be given in English or German. All documents are in English (exceptions may be granted).
