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.

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.
