Content
Security models: Theoretical framework
This first block will explain the different existing safety models, highlighting the difference between preventive models and reactive safety models.
Security models: Practical experiences
This second block will analyze different security actions and operations where different perspectives of intervention have been applied depending on the security model used.
Methodology
Teaching language: Spanish.
Some of the classes may be in Catalan.
The methodology of this subject will be based on a dynamic and participatory model.
Students must correctly follow the explanations of the teachers in the classroom, read or study the topics proposed by the teachers, as well as participate in class.
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.

Assessment
Continuous evaluation
1. Assessment of the topics worked in the classroom and continuous evaluation
Assignment work and exercises: delivery of the works and exercises that are considered in class. The mark for these tests, exercises and practices is 50% of the subject.
The note of these exercises (5 points (maximum note) with respect to the final note of the subject) will be added to the note obtained from the individual theoretical tests if these have been exceeded under the conditions specified in the following paragraph.
2. Individual Theoretical Tests
Examination: individual, written, or oral evidence, which allows the student to assess the knowledge acquired.
The grade for these tests is 50% of the subject. Two tests with a value of 25% each will be scheduled.
The minimum mark of each theoretical test for the mark to sum up with the notes obtained in the practice is 3.5.
The grade for these exams will be 5 points from the final grade of the subject.
Tests/examinations may be written and/or oral at the teacher's discretion.
The assignment work must have a grade of 4 to add to the continuous evaluation.
Each test must have at least 3.5 to be added to the continuous evaluation.
The mark for approving the continuous evaluation will be the result of the sum of the two tests and the work of the subject, provided that the minimum grades required for addition are obtained. To approve the continued evaluation, this average must be 5 or higher.
Single Evaluation
Students who opt for single assessment will perform a final synthesis test of all subject content (50%) and submit an assignment job with the same content required for continuous evaluation (50%).
The date for this assessment and submission of the assignment's work will be the same as scheduled in the schedule for the last continuous assessment exam.
The same recovery system will be applied as for continuous evaluation.
Assessment of students in second or more calls
Students who repeat the subject will perform the scheduled tests and exams and submit the work of the subject at the dates indicated in the classroom *Moodle.
Recovery Exam
Students who do not exceed the subject, who do not reach 5 out of 10, in accordance with the criteria laid down in the two previous paragraphs, may submit to a final examination provided that the student has been assessed in a set of activities, the weight of which is equivalent to a minimum of two thirds of the total qualification of the subject. If it has not been evaluated from these two third parties for not having been submitted to the tests, it will obtain a non-evaluable qualification, according to the indications of the EPSI Assessment Standard, without having the possibility to submit to the final recovery exam.
This examination will re-evaluate all the contents of the subject that have not been exceeded in the ongoing evaluation.
If the final exam is passed, the subject and/or the submission of the work will be approved with a maximum of 4.9, regardless of the mark obtained in the exam.
Changing an Assessment or Exam Date
Students who need to change an assessment date must submit the request by filling in the document in the *Tutorization Moodle *EPSI space.
Once the document has been completed, it must be sent to the assignee teacher and to the Grade Coordination.
Revision
At the time of each evaluation activity, the teacher will inform the student of the mechanisms for reviewing the qualifications.
For the single evaluation students, the review process will be the same.
Consult the EPSI Evaluation Standard.
Other considerations - Plagiarism
Without prejudice to other disciplinary measures that are deemed appropriate, and in accordance with the current academic regulations, "in case the student performs any irregularities that may lead to a significant variation in the rating of an assessment act, this evaluation act will be rated at a 0, regardless of the disciplinary process that may be instructed. In the event of several irregularities in the evaluation acts of the same subject, the final qualification of this subject shall be 0 ".
If you have indications during correction that an activity or work has been performed with artificial intelligence-assisted answers, the teacher can supplement the activity with a personal interview to corroborate the authorship of the text.
If circumstances occur that prevent the normal development of the subject, the teacher will be able to modify both the methodology and the assessment of the subject.1. Assessment of the topics worked in the classroom and ongoing evaluation.
