There are no prerequisites. However, it is recomended that students had previously taken the 'Information and Security' subject.
The "Information and Security" course is part of “SUBJECT 29: INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY”. The course deals with topics such as coding theory; advanced cryptographic protocols, blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies.
Theory classes will be based on lectures, although students will be encouraged to actively participate in the resolution of examples, etc. During problem sessions, a list of exercises will be resolved. Students are encouraged to solve the problems on their own in advance. Students will be encouraged to present their own solutions in class.
During laboratory sessions, topics related to the theory classes will be studied in depth. E.g., the exposition of real cases, or the extension of certain subjects with techniques and algorithms alternative to those already seen. The Virtual Campus will be used for teachers and student communication (material, news, etc.).
Transversal competences. These competences will be worked out and evaluated at various times throughout the course. Specifically:
Annotation: Within the schedule set by the centre or degree programme, 15 minutes of one class will be reserved for students to evaluate their lecturers and their courses or modules through questionnaires.

Continuous assessment dates will be published on the virtual campus and on the presentation slides, and the programming may change because of adaptation to possible incidents. Any modification will always be informed in the Campus Virtual, which is the usual exchange of information platform between teachers and students.
The evaluation of the subject, over 10 points, will be done as follows:
Theory (6 points): Two individual partial tests (3 points each). As part of the continuous assessment, the first test will be done in theory classes hours, and the second will be done on the date specified for the coordination. Each test will evaluate a part of the course separately and the final mark will be the arithmetic mean of the two tests. Each test will only be able to do average in case it is qualified with a note greater than 4.
Exercises (1 point): As part of the continuous assessment, activities must be carried out or exercises must be solved and presented for evaluation.
Mandatory laboratory practices (3 ponits): As part of the continuous assessment, they will have to be done some laboratory assignments. At least 1 point (of 2.5 points) must be obtained pass the subject
In case the stundent does not pass any of the partial tests, they can be recovered as follows:
Students who have fail the theory part will have the option of take a final exam, where they will be examined by the part of the subject that is suspended or from both parts, in the case of having both parts suspended. Students who want to improve the mark obtained in the partial exams can also take the final exam to improve their mark.
Failing either mandatory practices or exercices proposed during the course will not be able to be recovered.
For each assessment activity, a place, date and time of review will be indicated in which the student will be able to review the activity with theteacher. In this context, claims can be made about the activity grade, which will be graded by the teachers responsible for the subject. If the student does not take part of this review, this activity will not be reviewed later.
