    DESCRIPTION:
    wireless access networks for mobile users. Authentication and
    confidentiality in 4G mobile telephony systems. Identity and Access
    Management (IAM) for the Internet of Things.

    The course exposes the students to the main security challenges of wireless
    RATIONALE:
    and mobile networks, as well as, the corresponding solutions.

    As a result of taking this course, the student should be able to:


    1. Explain the threats for mobile users and operators and the
    corresponding security needs.
    LEARNING OUTCOMES: 2. Examine wireless and IoT protocols in terms of the level of security,
    effectiveness and complexity.
    3. Compare the security mechanisms and protocols in popular wireless
    communication systems and IoT.

    In congruence with the teaching and learning strategy of the college, the
    following tools are used:
     Classroom lectures, laboratory practical sessions using various
    simulations tools and progress meetings.
    METHOD OF TEACHING AND
    LEARNING:  Office hours held by the instructor to provide further assistance to
    students.
     Use of the Blackboard Learning platform, where instructors post lecture
    notes, assignment instructions, timely announcements, as well as
    additional resources.

    Summative:
    1st assessment: Midterm Exam
    30%
    Short essay questions and case problems.
    2nd assessment: Portfolio of student work, including project
    ASSESSMENT: 10%
    progress and oral assessment (not eligible for 2nd marking)
    Final assessment: Individual Project
    literature review, design, implementation (code, script or 60%
    simulation)

    Formative:
    Take-home short problems 0%

    The formative assessments aim to shape teaching and prepare students for
    the summative assessments.
    The 1st summative assessment tests the LOs 1 and 2.
    The 2nd summative assessment tests the LOs 1-3.
    The final summative assessment tests the LOs 1-3.

    The final assessment tests all learning outcomes of this module, therefore
    students pass the module if the average module grade is 40% or higher.
