ENEE 666 - Architecting Security

[3]

This timely course focuses on incorporating security in the initial phases of architecting Systems and Services. The goal is to teach our systems engineers and architects how to develop systems and system of systems (SoS) that have native security as a foundational component that is dynamic and scales to mission need. Consideration of data-at-rest, data-in-transit and processed data is a critical architectural facet. Incorporating data tagging and digital policy-based routing to facilitate secure data flow is an important aspect of securing data. The course assumes that the students have initial knowledge of systems engineering and architecture and are familiar with needs and basic methods of securing systems. The course will incorporate student participation researching risks and mitigation approaches in current and recent past systems that have been deployed and their impact on stakeholders. Lessons learned will be highlighted and practical methods considered in order to allow direct application.
Prerequisite: Prerequisites: ENEE 660, ENEE 661 and ENEE 662, or consent of instructor.
