| Unit Description |
Security of data becomes paramount as the Internet gets used for commercial applications such as banking and commerce. This unit studies the principles and methods used for secure access and transfer of information in the Internet. A minor strand of the unit looks at ethical issues in Internet security. COMP 590 is based on the undergraduate unit COMP 290 with additional load consisting of extra questions on assignments and examinations, and candidates for COMP 590 will be expected to show a greater level of understanding of the unit material than that required for COMP 290. Students who complete COMP 290 are not permitted to enrol for COMP 590. |
