   CSCI – 400: This capstone course is designed to provide students with a hands-on experience based on the theoretical knowledge they have acquired by taking other security-oriented courses. The course will accomplish its goals through a number of in-lab programming exercises. Topics covered may include: cryptographic algorithms and protocols; authentication and authorization protocols; access control models; common network (wired and wireless) attacks; typical protection approaches including firewalls and intrusion detection systems; operating systems and application vulnerabilities, exploits, and countermeasures.CSCI-401: This course will cover advanced network and host security concepts and mechanisms. In addition to treating subjects in theory, the course include projects that provide extensive hands-on experience assessing vulnerabilities, writing real working exploits for existing systems in a closed and controlled environment, and developing countermeasures to both perceived and real threats. The class will involve a fair amount of programming. Those who take the class are expected to be able to program in C/C++, have a solid knowledge of assembly and scripting languages, and be familiar with network basics as well as modern operating systems (Windows, MacOS, Unix)
