.
1. Students will be able to evaluate various
security attacks and will gain understanding
on services and mechanisms.
2. Students will understand the applications
and working of various symmetric and
asymmetric algorithms
3. Students will be able to identify information
Current Course outcomes system requirements for both of them such Cognitive level
as client and server.
4. Students will be able to understand the
importance of IP security and key
management.
5. Students will understand other types of
threats and also the importance of web
security
Inadequate mapping identified
with PO/PSO and scope for
improvement in Blooms level
