Methodologies | Description |
Guest lecture / keynote speech | Lessons taught by the teacher through the projection of slides. Lessons have a totally practical approach, explaining the theoretical concepts through the use of simple examples and case studies. Slides are available on the e-learning platform of the university. |
ICT practicals | To experiment with the concepts studied in the course, students will perform two projects. The first one will be focused on the vulnerability analysis of a web application. Students will start from the source code of a web application and will have to detect the vulnerabilities, exploit them and fix them. The second project will be focused on authentication, authorization and access control. Students will start from the source code of an application, composed of a user interface and a service, and will have to implement authentication, authorization and access control, by following different strategies. |
Multiple-choice questions | There will be a test to verify students have assimilated concepts correctly. The test will consist of a set of questions with several possible answers, being only one of them correct. Unanswered questions do not score, and wrong answers score negatively. |
