The aims of the module are to:

• Introduce core cyber resilience concepts that may be developed further by subsequent modules.
• Inspire students to develop independent postgraduate study skills.
• Encourage students to develop a responsible attitude towards collaborative learning and authentic assessment.
• Introduce the cyber resilience teaching and learning environment.

The aims of the module are to:

• introduce industry standard approaches to cyber risk management
• sensitise students to ambiguous interpretation of words and numbers concerning cyber risk

The aims of the module are to:

• Introduce the relationships between: abstract mathematics; abstract cryptographic algorithms, schemes and protocols; concrete realisation of cryptographic algorithms, schemes and protocols; day to day cryptographic usage.
• Establish the significance of cryptographic hashes, symmetric encryption, public key encryption and hybrid schemes.
• Develop the concepts of 'difficulty' and 'cryptographic strength' and their resilience to the passage of time.
• Identify good patterns, and bad anti-patterns of cryptography and their consequences for current standards, implementations and patterns of use.
• Emphasise the significance of the cryptographic key lifecycle.
• Provide opportunities to experiment with cryptographic implementations.

The aims of the module are to:

• Introduce the strengths and limitations of a range of AI approaches.
• Identify how AI solutions might be degraded by purposeful attack.
• Provide opportunities to experiment with AI tools and techniques.
