Subject syllabus

The subject is focused on:
a) Routing network protocols
b) Mobile ad-hoc networks and their modelling
c) Software-defined networks
d) Anomaly detection, Intrusion detection systems
e) Conventiona cryptography - symmnetric, asymmetric, el. signatures and hash functions
f) Cryptography using laws of qauntum mechanics for the keys' distribution

Upon completion of this course, students should be able to design, implement and solve selected tasks in domains of routing and security of networks.
