COURSE

IS632: Hypervisor System Security (Spring)

Hypervisor is a software platform that virtualizes computer hardware to support multiple instances of operating system running concurrently on a shared hardware system. Hypervisors are also widely used for cloud-based hosting service. This hypervisor platform can be utilized for higher degree of isolation for computer security monitoring and analysis. It provides an adequate environment for building kernel integrity monitors. This course will provide the fundamentals and inner-workings of hypervisors in the context of designing new security, monitoring, and analysis tools.

IS631: Kernel System Security (Fall)

Operating system kernel is the most critical component in the system as it provides the basic functionalities and the secure environment in which applications run and operate. In this course, the fundamentals of OS kernel and system programming, principles and operation of the open-source Linux operating system are taught with an emphasis on security aspect, so that students can acquire a comprehensive understanding of operating system kernel, analysis methods and countermeasures against various rootkit malware that compromise and manipulate operating system.

IS511: Introduction to Information Security (Spring)

This course covers the overall content of information security. The first half covers basics of information security including Usability, Protocols, Access Control and Cryptography. The latter part includes specific areas such as software and system security as well as web and network security.

[link]

IS522: Intro to System Security (Spring)

The main purpose of this course is to review the fundamental concepts in operating systems with the view of security perspective and learn about system exploitations and the defenses methods in order to cultivate the ability to design a robust system against security attacks. Also, it covers kernel reference monitors and trusted execution environment which can be employed to design secure systems.
