News for Fall 2015

  • Individual study plans must be submitted via OIS no later than 1700 on 10th of September.
  • The new instructor for ITX8090 (Information and Cyber Security Assurance in Organisations) is Dr Andro Kull.
  • If a course does not show up on your schedule:
    • try a manual search for that specific course. Electives (especially from different departments) are often not added to the full schedule.
    • wait. Some of them are not in the system yet, but this should be resolved by the end of this week.
  • ITX8041 (Legal Aspects of Cyber Security) is replaced by ITC8010 (same name). There are minor changes in content and the course is now given on both semesters. For the fall semester of 2015 the course is given by Agnes Karpati. Do not take it, if you have already passed ITX8041.
  • ITX8215 (Digital Evidence) is replaced by HOE7023 (same name). There are no significant changes to the content. Do not take it, if you have already passed ITX8215.
  • ITX8062 (Information Systems Mass Attacks and Defence) is replaced by ITC8050 (Strategic and Operational Aspects of Cyber Security), which will be offered on both semesters. The course will be given on odd weeks throughout the semester (previously taught on weeks 1-8). The course is designed for second year students and there are limited number of seats available. If you do not fit into this fall's version, you can take it in the spring. Do not take it, if you have already passed ITX8062.
  • ITX8063 (Information Systems Hacking Attacks and Defence) is replaced by ITC8070 (Information Systems Attacks and Defence). The new course will be 4 ECTS and there are limited slots available. Do not take it, if you have already passed ITX8063.
  • If you enrolled in 2014 or earlier, then the replacement courses (see above) may not display in the correct modules. Do not worry about this, we will move them at the end of the semester. Just contact Rain Ottis during the exam session and let him know what the situation is.
  • A special course on forensics is currently being prepared (ITX8220/ITX8221 - you should pick a code that you have not used yet) for the second half of the semester. This will be a hands on course that is going to look at the forensics tools in Kali Linux. If you consider taking it, you will have to sign up for it by September 10th. However, it is not yet in OIS, so you will have to wait a few days. More information on it later this week.
