 General knowledge about Security is mandatory before attending this course (for the obvious reason that you cannot chose among technologies you don't know). This might be obtained by attending the Master Level courses of Introduction to Computer and Network Security, Cryptography,​ and Security Testing at the [[https://​masterschool.eitdigital.eu/​programmes/​cse/​|Cyber Security track]] in Trento. Bachelor students from Trento might also consider the course on Reti Avanzate which provides the minimum knowledge about security protocols. General knowledge about Security is mandatory before attending this course (for the obvious reason that you cannot chose among technologies you don't know).
