Unlocking Information Security

Information Security Foundations

Information security isn't an afterthought—it must be woven into design, implementation, and operations from the start. This course surveys the landscape: core concepts and technologies, common vulnerabilities, and the principles that govern secure systems. You'll see where security must enter the decision-making process and develop informed judgment about the tradeoffs involved.

Understanding when information security considerations matter, and how to participate in building secure systems, is increasingly expected of technical professionals across industries.
