<objectives>After this module, students will have mastered the essential concepts of information security and be able to assess the importance of information security. They will be familiar with the structure of the IT Baseline Protection Catalogs (IT-Grundschutz Kataloge) and how they are applied.

To do so, they will be familiar with the procedure according to IT-Grundschutz (BSI Standard 100-2) and be able to create an IT security concept based on this procedure. Furthermore, they will know what to take into account when setting up an information security management system and the information security process.


Students will develop skills that enable them to formally identify and assess component security requirements. This includes the process of maintaining and continuously improving information security.


In a practical project, students will use their knowledge to create an IT security concept based on a case study.
