M2 Sécurité Informatique

This course introduces the fundamental principles of quantum information and their applications in computer security.

Students will explore qubits, superposition, quantum states, measurement, quantum gates, and basic quantum algorithms.

Special attention is given to the impact of quantum computing on modern cryptography, including Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) and Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC).

The course is designed for Computer Science and Information Security students, with beginner-friendly explanations, lecture slides, course notes, and audio learning resources.

This course introduces the fundamental principles of quantum computing and their applications in information security. Students will explore qubits, superposition, quantum states, measurement, quantum gates, and basic quantum algorithms.

Special attention is given to the impact of quantum computing on cybersecurity, including threats to traditional cryptography, Quantum Key Distribution (QKD), and Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC).

The course is designed for Computer Science and Information Security students, with an emphasis on conceptual understanding, practical examples, and emerging cybersecurity challenges.

This course focuses on the principles, mechanisms, and techniques used to secure modern operating systems against unauthorized access, vulnerabilities, attacks, and system compromise. Students study Linux and Windows security, including authentication, authorization, access control (DAC, MAC, RBAC), privilege management, process and memory protection, secure configuration, auditing, and system monitoring.

The course also covers major OS attacks and vulnerabilities, such as privilege escalation, memory-based attacks, credential attacks, malicious processes, rootkits, and persistence techniques. Students analyze defensive mechanisms.
