Description:
代做CRN: 13506作业、代写Python实验作业、代做Cybersecurity作业、代写Python编程设计作业
This course builds on the material covered in CS166 - Cybersecurity Principles, with an emphasis on cyber
defense. Topics include cyber defense policy, privacy and ethics; network threat defense, intrusion
detection and prevention systems, intro to penetration testing, operating system security principles,
system/network admin basics, as well as cloud, mobile and IoT security. The course concludes with an
overview of security planning, management and incident response. Prerequisites: CS166 - Cybersecurity
Principles [CS021 - Computer Programming I: Python, CS 008 - Intro to Website Development]
Special Note: In order to develop a working knowledge of cybersecurity best practices, it is important to
gain an understanding of the techniques used by attackers. Thus, this course presents material that could
be used to exploit systems and/or end-users. The assignments are solely designed to be preformed in
isolated test environments provided or referred to by the course instructor, and are not to be used on any
University computer, or otherwise, with any form of malicious intent. Upon enrollment, students will be
expected to sign a statement certifying their commitment to ethical computing practices.

Grading Policy:
The course grade is comprised of a variety of
assignments, labs, quizzes, a final exam, and discussions.
For the “discussions” grade, since this is an online course
your effort is represented by your activity in the
discussion forums. You are required to make a post for
each topic within each thread Your post needs to be a
minimum of 100 words and be related to the subject in
order to let me know that you are staying current with
the course material. Your post may be in response to
another students’ post, however, it needs to be
comprehensive, as simply “I agree” or
“good point” - type responses will not
satisfy the requirement. Respectful and
appropriate posts are the expectation, as
is citing your sources.
Any grade appeal must be made within
one week of the grade being posted.

Course Policies:
Attendance: This course is asynchronous, meaning that we will not meet at a particular time each
week. Even though we will not meet face-to-face in a physical classroom, participation on all
discussion boards is required and paramount to your success.
Late Policy: Late assignments are not accepted without explicit permission from the instructor,
and permission can only be granted in the case of an emergency AND provided the request was
made prior to the assignment due date. Late work may be subject to a penalty in points at the
discretion of the instructor.
SAS: In keeping with University policy, any student with a documented disability interested in
utilizing accommodations should contact SAS, the office of Disability Services on campus. SAS
works with students and faculty in an interactive process to explore reasonable and appropriate
accommodations, which are communicated to faculty in an accommodation letter.?? All students
are strongly encouraged to meet with their faculty to discuss the accommodations they plan to use
in each course. Please click on this link, Accommodation Guidelines, to better understand the
process. A student's accommodation letter lists those accommodations that will not be
implemented until the student meets with their faculty to create a plan. Contact SAS: A170 Living/
Learning Center; (802) 656-7753; access@uvm.edu; or www.uvm.edu/access
Religious Holidays: Students have the right to practice the religion of their choice. Each semester
students should submit in writing to their instructors by the end of the second full week of classes
their documented religious holiday schedule for the semester. Faculty must permit students who
miss work for the purpose of religious observance to make up this work. See the Interfaith
Calendar. Additional University of Vermont policies may be found at: UVM Policies.
Academic Honesty Policy: The Computer Science Department rigorously enforces the Code of
Academic Integrity Policy as outlined in the Code of Rights and Responsibilities and University
Policies. At the first suspicion of violation of this policy, the case will be immediately forwarded to
the Coordinator of Academic Integrity. The typical sanction for a violation is a grade of an "XF" in
the course. A second violation typically results in dismissal from the University.

Your assignments may be electronically compared to everyone else's. If you assist someone in
cheating you are guilty as well (this year or next). You must type and format your assignments
yourself, starting an assignment or copying and pasting from someone else's assignment is a case
of academic dishonesty and will be treated as such. Each work submitted must be your own work,
no collaboration is allowed, except as explicitly defined in the assignment instructions.
Copying an Exam in any shape or form including but not limited to photocopying, picture taking,
writing down or verbally dictating questions and or answers is considered academic dishonesty
and will be treated as such. The only external programming code you are allowed to use are the
examples provided by the instructor. Any other external code (i.e. found from a Google search,
etc.) is considered academic dishonesty and will be treated as such. If you feel the need to use free
code or shareware code, please consult with your instructor PRIOR to using it.
