  2. Essence of cyber security (comupter secutity, data security) Source principle: if we have created some data, then the information, beared by these data, has usually a special value for us (for a main process, business process) Information security or a cyber security is (widely taken) a discipline which concerns the maintaining these values/properties of information. Because most of information is nowadays digital (handled by computers) it is often called also a cyber security or computer security

  3. Classical model of cyber security (information security) Cyber security is classically a simultaneous ensurance of three main goals or three main components (which are usually considered to be independent of each others): • Availability – information, beared by the data, is available to the parties designated by the business (main)process and at the time, form and other terms specified by the business (main) process • Integrity – concerned parties (designated by business/main process) know where the information originates and are convinced of its accuracy (i.e. the information has not been falsified or changed in any other way) • Confidentiality – information, beared by the data, may only be available to persons/entities designated by the business/main process and must be inaccessible for all others

  4. From cyber security to Cyber Security Engineering Ensuring cyber security (simultaneous availability, integrity and confidentiality) it’s typical necessary to use and involve different type of techniques: • IT (hardware, software, networks) • human • legal • mathematical/cryptogpaphical As security is the property of all (IT) processes, security needs to be addressed in all phases of the information system Therefore, cybersecurity technologies cover all aspects of IT and much more than IT (human factor, legal factor, physical security, etc.)

  5. IVSB bachelor’s program – main principles, I • We do not assume that students have a previous systematic experience and/or knowledge in IT – we cover during 3 years all main topic of IT in preliminary level • But we assume that students have a deep interest in IT from a security point of view • And we heavily assume that students have an ability to think logically and algorithmically – this is the basis for understanding IT. We have tested it in admission test • We assume that students have a math knowledge on a general international high-school level – we have tested it (together) with algorithmical thinking in admission test

  6. IVSB bachelor’s program – main principles, II • We balance between theoretical knowledge and practical skills, slightly inclined to the practical side. More theoretical approach of cyber security will be covered in TTU by cyber security master’s programIVCM • Graduates of IVSB will be able to independently design, operate and manage secure IT systems • As cyber security is heavily related to all IT branches, we cover both, IT administration and develompment branches balancing between them

  7. IVSB bachelor’s program – learning outcomes • Understanding the concept of the IT systems life cycle • Ability to code, test, and distribute of an infosystem with the focus on security • Abilityto perform information system security testingbasing on bestinternational standards and practices • Basic skills to administrate, develop end test secure information systems • Adhering ethical norms of the cyber (data) security If you finish IVSB, you can continue with cyber security master program IVCM inTalTechoranyother IT orcybersecurityrelatedmasterprograminanyuniversityin all aroundtheworld

  8. IVSB bachelor’s program – duration and amount Duration - three years or six semesters Totalamount - 180 ECTS, including: • general studies - 24 ECTS • core studies - 63 ECTS • special studies - 81 ECTS • free choice courses - 6 ECTS • graduation thesis - 6 ECTS Link to courses’ list – http://tinyurl.com/ivsb17(one typo, instead of first core studeies must be general studies)

  9. Valdo Praust, IVSB programmanager • valdo.praust@taltech.eevaldo@itcollege.ee • +372 514 3262 • In Skype – available by previous demand • Experience in the field of IT – 36 years • Experience in the field of data security (cyber security) – 28 years (since restoring Estonian independence 1991) • During last 28 years I have involved in a bulk of Estonian national security-related IT projects – Estonian ID card, Estonian digital signature project, Estonian national data security standard ISKE etc • Contemporarly I spend physically a lot of time 100 km’s from Tallinn (developing Estonian Bicycle Museum). In Tallinn and in TTU campus I am physically available usually 2-3 days in week
