Course description

Security is about regulating access to assets. Crucial questions are: Who are you? and: Should you be doing that? These questions cannot be answered without taking the organisation in which security systems are deployed into account.

The course introduces the basic notions and techniques in the area of information security. The emphasis lies on assessing risks and impacts of security related threats and on planning, managing and evaluating security controls such as policies, procedures, and technical counter measures.

Extra information time table clash

There is a known time table clash between the practical of Security in Organisations and the Law in Cyberspace course. However the practical for Security in Organisations will be organized such that it may be done without without attending the practical meeting. Next to this the Law in Cyberspace course if not every week and the practicals are only given a few times so both teachers assume there will be no real problems for students following both courses.
