Course 8: Secure Systems Engineering

Secure Systems Engineering is a capstone course of the information assurance area of specialization. This course will bring together and focus the various topics presented in the prerequisite classes on the development of system level security solutions. The objective of the course is to equip the student with a global view of the process of designing and developing and fielding secure information systems. The course will investigate a number of actual secure system solutions starting with the development of the organization’s security policy and tracing the development of the system through to deployment. This will be a case study process. Parallel to the case study the student will be presented with comparable secure system developments in varying degrees of completeness and challenged to complete the development. In some cases this will require the student to develop assurance evidence, in some cases the student may be expected to complete a penetration analysis, in some cases the student may be expected to identify some architectural component.
