CT6034 Advanced Networking and Security.
Learning Outcome 1: Critically analyse and evaluate risk analysis and management strategies to address the associated risks, threats, vulnerabilities and attack vectors against network architectures to secure the operational and service delivery requirements;
Learning Outcome 2: Critically evaluate the organisational security requirements for a network security solution against known regulations, standards, legislation, policies and procedures to develop a systematic solution to the network and organisational security requirements;
Learning Outcome 3: Demonstrate the ability to understand and synthesize the principles of network security architectures and security frameworks and models;
Learning Outcome 4: Critically analyse and evaluate network security controls and mitigation techniques: network monitoring, firewalls and traffic filtering, intrusion detection and prevention systems, intrusion analysis, anti-malware, cryptography, securing network protocols, services, applications and data to mitigate the identified risks of the evaluated system;
Learning Outcome 5: Analyse a number of advanced networking topics and future networking direction;
Learning Outcome 6: Critically evaluate and communicate network security alternatives arguments, assumptions, abstract concepts and data to make judgments, and to frame appropriate questions to achieve a solution - or identify a range of solutions - to a given problem, to both technical and non- technical stakeholders.
Research on the state-of- the-art Ad hoc network routing or security algorithms. You need to choose a protocol with the advice of the tutor of the module and work on that. In this document, you must include discussing how you designed your simulation and explain the results in relation to the study and research you did on the protocols.
Implementation - NetLogo simulation of the researched area. You need to make sure that you use three elements of coding, UI and BehaviorSpace in the work.
