This course will introduce the basic primitives of cryptography, using rigorous syntax and game-based security definitions. The course will show how these primitives can be combined to build cryptographic protocols and systems.

In this seminar course, students present and discuss a variety of recent research papers in Cryptography.

The seminar covers various topics in information security: security protocols (models, specification & verification), trust management, access control, non-interference, side-channel attacks, identity-based cryptography, host-based attack detection, anomaly detection in backbone networks, key-management for sensor networks.

DLT is emerging for a disruption of our current financial infrastructure. As such, Blockchain Finance seeks to combine open-source, peer to peer building blocks into sophisticated products using blockchain technology, seeking to disintermediate and decentralize the traditional financial service industry. This lecture will combine insights on DLT with recent applications from finance.

This course (e-learning module and face-to-face sessions) equips doctoral students with knowledge and tools to recognize, discuss and address ethical issues of their research.

This course provides an introduction to Information Security. The focusis on fundamental concepts and models, basic cryptography, protocols and system security, and privacy and data protection. While the emphasis is on foundations, case studies will be given that examine different realizations of these ideas in practice.

This InterFocus Course will provide a broad, hands-on introduction to Information Security, introducing adversarial thinking and security by design as key approaches to building secure systems.

Some of today's most damaging attacks on computer systems involve exploitation of network infrastructure, either as the target of attack or as a vehicle to attack end systems.This course provides an in-depth study of network attack techniques and methods to defend against them.
