DESCRIPTION:Sebastian Lopienski is CERN's Deputy Computer Security Officer
 . He works on security strategy and policies\; offers internal consultancy
  and audit services\; develops and maintains security tools for vulnerabil
 ity assessment and intrusion detection\; provides training and awareness r
 aising\; and does incident investigation and response. During his work at 
 CERN since 2001\, Sebastian has had various assignments\, including design
 ing and developing software to manage and support services hosted in the C
 ERN Computer Centre\; providing Central CVS Service for software projects 
 at CERN\; and development of applications for accelerator controls in Java
 . He graduated from the University of Warsaw (MSc in Computer Science) in 
 2002\, and earned an MBA degree at the Enterprise Administration Institute
  in Aix-en-Provence and Haute Ecole de Gestion in Geneva in 2010. His prof
 essional interests include software and network security\, distributed sys
 tems\, and Web and mobile technologies.\n\nWith the prevalence of modern i
 nformation technologies and its increasing integration into our daily live
 \, digital systems become more and more playground for evil people. While 
 in the past\, attacks were driven by fame&    kudos\, nowadays money is th
 e motivating factor. Just the recent months have shown several successful 
 attacks against e.g. Sony\, PBS\, UNESCO\, RSAsecurity\, Citibank\, and ot
 hers. Credit card information of hundreds of thousands of people got expos
 ed. Affected companies not only lost their assets and data\, also their re
 putation has suffered. Thus\, proper computer security measures are essent
 ial. Without question\, security must even more become an inherent ingredi
 ent when developing\, deploying\, and operating applications\, web sites\,
  and computing services.  \nThese lectures shall give an overview of gener
 al computer and information security\, subsequently focus on the problems 
 of creating secure applications and computer services\, highlight the impo
 rtance of security operations (i.e. prevention\, protection\, detection an
 d response)\, delve into the specifies of securing the critical infrastruc
 ture and their digital control systems as well as securing cloud and distr
 ibuted computing\, and discuss the impact of so-called Web 2.0 technologie
 s to security and privacy.\n\nhttp://indico.cern.ch/conferenceDisplay.py?c
