The course will be arranged virtually - that is, with virtual lectures and meetings.
We use Zoom on the course; it's a good idea to make sure you have the latest version: https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/201362233-Upgrade-update-to-the-latest-versionThe course focuses on overall understanding of cybersecurity including different types of threats and solutions and the evaluation of technological solutions. After the course students are expected to understand digital security.The course consists of a preliminary assignment, five lecture days in April and May, three group assignments (one of which is a case study project) and two individual assignments. Attending all the lecture days (for the whole time!) is mandatory (virtual presence is enough this year), and compensating an absence is generally not possible. All assignments are mandatory as well, and deadlines must be met! Group members will also grade each other, and this may have an effect on the overall grading as well.
The course is graded pass/fail.
