Introduce students to security concepts in e-business, such as security threats and vulnerabilities. Point out the most common attacks in e-business systems and demonstrate adequate defense techniques. To enable students to compare different possible data protection solutions in specific business environments and make a decision on choosing the best solution.

Students will acquire the skills needed to implement security methods in e-business. Students will be able to apply what they have learned in order to develop new methods of protection in electronic business in real environments.
