Curriculum

Systems Security

In this course, you will examine security for computers and networked information systems

The focus is abstractions, principles, and defenses for implementing military and commercial-grade secure systems

Authenticating Machines

In this course, you will investigate shared key and public key cryptography along with the trade-offs associated with these different types of keys

You will also examine some of the standard cryptographic building blocks and their use

Authenticating Humans

This course addresses how a computing system can authenticate a human user, discussing implementations of mechanisms as well as their privacy implications

You will explore the protocols of passwords, biometrics, and tokens, along with their combination as multifactor authentication

Discretionary Access Control

This course will survey the two approaches widely used in these mechanisms: access control lists and capabilities

Mandatory Access Control

In this course, you will review various forms of mandatory access control policies and their implementations, including multilevel security, commercial, and role-based access control schemes

Enforcement Mechanisms and Strategies

In this course you will learn about the three primary classes of enforcement mechanisms mediation/monitoring, isolation, and asymmetry and discuss how they are deployed in systems today

Fred B. Schneider

Professor Schneider’s research has focused on various aspects of trustworthy systems — systems that will perform as expected, despite failures and attacks. His early work concerned formal methods to aid in the design and implementation of concurrent and distributed systems that satisfy their specifications.
