Content

Security models: Theoretical framework

Security models: Practical experiences

 


Methodology

Teaching language: Spanish.
 
The methodology of this subject will be based on a dynamic and participatory model. Students must study the topics through the mandatory reading of the materials that will be offered, they must participate in the written discussion forums, and they must connect or watch the different lectures that the teacher will give.
 
Students must provide reflections and comments to the texts of mandatory reading as well as investigate jurisprudence, news,  readings or legislation that the teacher asks in the discussion forums.
 
 
 

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

Continous evaluation
Students must carry out 4 PECs (works) on subjects of the subject (50%) and a final test of continuous evaluation (examination) (50%) on the date indicated in the schedule.
 
Tests/examinations may be written and/or oral at the teacher's discretion.
 
The PECs in the subject must have a mark of 3.5 in order to be able to add to the continuous evaluation.
 
The Final Assessment Assessment (examination) test must have a minimum grade of 4 in order to be added to the continuous evaluation.
 
The mark for approving the continuous evaluation will be the result of summing up the PEC notes and the Final Assessment Assessment, 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.
