The lecture Protection in Networked Systems teaches concepts of IT-Security that go beyond the classical protection goals. Classical goals – and methods to achieve them, e.g., cryptography – are fundamentals for this lecture and will not be covered. The focus of this lecture is the achievement of advanced protection goals in the context of emerging networked systems.
