Department Information

After evaluating the theoretical and practical topics of applicable enigmabiology and information  security and computer systems security techniques, "Information Security" major of "Information Technology" graduate program has been developed  considering the growing  commercial,governmental,service and industrial use of computers and regarding the growing threats and invasion to information and other sources of computer systems and the need to protect sensitive resources and information and to prevent harassment influence or reduce the threat to these systems.

 

Department History

"Information Security" is a Cross-Disciplinary branch of technical and engineering sciences which studies the strategies, policies, procedures, mechanisms, tools, techniques and information protection procedures stored in different forms during transmission in communication networks and processing  and consequently  security of information storage, exchange and process systems  to detect, documentation and deal with threats and unauthorized access or reduce the threat.Master of Information Security major in "Information Technology" Engineering is one of the collections of higher education in technical- engineering fields which includes theoretical and practical courses and research programs. Principles of Information Security Engineering,different types of threats and invasions and weakness in computer systems,  security assessment of computer systems ,different types of security policies, security protocols and functions to protect data against passive and active attacks  and the techniques and methods of  operating systems,computer networks and databases security  in order to prevent unauthorized access and provide services to unauthorized users and prevent service to authorized users Will be studied in this major.

 During this period, current theories and experiences in the field of information security will be provided for students and various aspects of information security in computer systems will be studied.

The aim of this course is to train people who are able to define the optimum approach to security in order to provide information processing   systems security based on identifying all related obstacles and technical factors and provide practical solutions and also be able to do   initial researches in this field of knowledge and improve the knowledge and relevant technology in the country.
