Students learn about the application of techniques and methods for securing information and operation technologies (IT/OT). Students should apply acquired knowledge in anaysis, study and solving real problems.

Knowledge of methods and technologies for securing information and operation technologies (IT/OT). The students are able to use security methods and technologies, create a software for data protection in IT/OT system, design and implement mechanisms for authentication and access control for IT/OT systems, and to establish secure communication between IT/OT segments. The student is trained to analyze, study and solve real problems using the acquired knowledge.

Introduction to security of information and operation technologies (IT/OT): definition, basic concepts, security requirements. Threat modelling and risk analysis. Cryptography: introduction, basic concepts, cryptographic protocols, algorithms, digital signatures, digital certificates. PKI infrastructure: key management, establishment of PKI. Authentication: single-factor authentication, attacks, Kerberos, OAuth authentication. Access control: concepts, elements, mechanisms and models of access control. Application of security concepts at the operation, application and network level. Security of SCADA systems: basic concepts, components of SCADA systems, secure protocols, vulnerabilities and attacks on SCADA infrastructure, methods and technologies for protection of SCADA systems. Monitoring of IT/OT systems: logs, network traffic, security events, correlation of events, alarming and SIEM (security information and event managemen). Standards for critical infrastructure protection: NIST –800-53, NIST – 800-82, NERC-CIP, ISO 27000, ISO 27019.

Lectures. Computer practice. Consultations. The student is obliged to independently do the project and write a seminar paper.
