Course Description

Communications security is a strategic sector for the protection of privacy as well as personal, corporate, national and international security.

The everyday life of every person and every type of organization involves communication. Landlines, fax, mobile phones, SMS, MMS, the Internet and e-mail represent some of the many means by which communication normally takes place.

The interception, damage to or loss of information during its communication can produce material, non-material and economic damage from a personal, business and societal perspective.

The aim of the course is to provide the concepts relating to all aspects of communications security, even for the participant that is not particularly well versed, commencing with the basic concepts and progressing to those that are more advanced and topical.

The course is aimed at designers and administrators of telecommunications, computer and integrated security systems, system engineers, system analysts, security managers, critical infrastructure managers, the police force, the armed forces, researchers and sector technicians; it is also of use to security personnel, private investigators and to all those that in some way need to communicate securely for personal or business reasons.
