Students will obtain theoretical foundations including practical skills in the area of security of embedded system and authentication systems. Students will be familiar with the basic systems, various scenarios, lightweight cryptography and principles of the safe implementation eliminates side-channel attacks. Based on this knowledge, studens will be able to analyze and design security solutions for embeded systems.

The course requires a basic knowledge in the areas of operating system security (course ICT Security 1), network security (course ICT Security 2) and fundamentals of cryptography. Furthermore, the basic knowledge of programming in JAVA language are recommended.

Not applicable.

Methods of educations are described in the article 7 of the BUT’s Study and Examination Regulation. Teaching methods include lectures, laboratories and student projects. Course is taking advantage of e-learning (Moodle) system.

The maximum of 15 points is given upon completion of the laboratory assignments. The completion of an individual project adds upto 15 points. The requirements on the completion of the tasks in laboratories and projects are described in the annual supervisor’s notice. The maximum of 70 points can be gained during the final exam.

Not applicable.

The main goal of the course is to familiarize students with the security of embedded systems that are an integral part of ICT. During the course, students are introduced with lightweight cryptography, authentication systems, smart cards, side-channel cryptanalysis and countermeasures preventing side-channel attacks. The course follows up on the knowledge of ICT Security 1 and ICT Security 2 courses and appropriately expands them.

The conditions for the successful course completion are stated in the yearly updated supervisor’s notice.
