课程大纲

The capstone course, offered 1-2 times per year (starting in May 2015), puts it all together. Student teams design and build a secure system, and expose weaknesses in systems built by other teams. The course will be modeled on the "build-it/break-it/fix-it" security contest developed at the University of Maryland, described at https://builditbreakit.org/.

The capstone course will last six weeks:

  1. Week 1, Background, preliminaries: Re-capping prior course knowledge, forming teams, additional preparation
  2. Weeks 2-3, Developing a secure system: Students will design and implement a secure system according to a provided specification, with points awarded for performance and functionality
  3. Weeks 4-5, Auditing: Teams will be tasked with finding flaws/bugs in other teams' code, with points awarded for each (unique) flaw found
  4. Week 6, Fixing: Teams may fix flaws in their own code, found by others, in order to gain points back
After the sixth week, the winners are declared, with separate categories for the best "builders" and the best "breakers".

Participating in the course gives learners the chance to be part of research on understanding how to better build secure software. They may also submit resumes accessible to corporate sponsors, for potential internship and employment opportunities.
