On April 15-18, 1997, UCLA Extension will present the short course,
"Network and Computer Security: Principles and Applications", on
the UCLA campus in Los Angeles.

The instructors are Thomas Haigh, PhD, Secure Computing Corp; Bill
Hancock, PhD, Network 1 Software and Technology; Stephen Kent, PhD,
Bolt Beranek and Newman; and Karl Levitt, PhD, UC Davis.

Both corporations and government agencies are becoming increasingly
dependent on computer networks to perform their operations.  As a
result,
almost every commercial and government information system fielded
today must meet increasingly stringent security requirements.  Moreover,
the nature of those security requirements is changing.  In the past,
most
requirements were for a form of military security that emphasized the
need
to preserve the confidentiality of data. In today's environment, the
integrity
and availability of information resources and services are of paramount
importance.

This course presents a summary of the current state of practice in
computer
and network security technology with an emphasis on practical Internet
security solutions, and provides the tools necessary to develop and
evaluate solutions for computer and network security problems.  Lectures
present an overview of the security products and technologies available
today, along with an in-depth look at security principles and network
protocol standards, and a variety of worked examples of information
system security solutions.  The course also looks at network security
architectures, implementation alternatives, and ways to protect your
system
against attacks from both casual hackers and determined corporate
adversaries.

The course fee is $1495, which includes extensive course materials.
These materials are for participants only, and are not for sale.
