Einführung in die Internetsicherheit (openHPI)

Offered by Hasso-Plattner-Institut,

Die Enthüllungen durch Edward Snowden haben noch einmal verdeutlicht, dass Sicherheit im Internet ein wichtiges Thema ist. Internetnutzer sind sich eher der vielfältigen Möglichkeiten bewusst, die das Internet bietet, weniger jedoch seiner potentiellen Gefahren.

Dieser openHPI-Kurs führt in die Grundbegriffe der Internetsicherheit ein: Hier lernen Sie nicht nur, was formelle Sicherheitsziele sind sondern auch, warum das Internet von seinem Grunddesign unsicher ist, was die häufigsten Schwachstellen sind und wie diese ausgenutzt werden können und schließlich auch, wie Sie sich schützen können.

Sicher per E-Mail kommunizieren - Mitleser unerwünscht (openHPI)

Computer Science

Die E-Mail ist eines der wichtigsten Kommunikationsmittel unserer Zeit. Dennoch lässt die Technologie hinsichtlich der Sicherheit deutlich zu wünschen übrig. E-Mail-Nutzer/innen können sich weder sicher sein, dass niemand die Nachrichten mitliest, noch dass diese auch unverändert bei den Empfänger/innen ankommen. Um geeignete Sicherheitsmaßnahmen - die sogenannte Ende-zu-Ende-Verschlüsselung sowie digitale Signaturen - müssen sich alle Nutzer/innen selbst kümmern.

The design step in developing software has some unique characteristics. First of all, it’s the only step where drawing pictures of things is the norm. Why is that? What do pictures do that other representations cannot do? Pictures have varying levels of detail; pictures have context. Pictures…paint a picture. Why are these things important? In this course, too, we begin looking at other disciplines (building architecture is a favorite one) for lessons on design.
