The course provides a very brief introduction to the rapid changing-field of information security. We have structured in 5 weeks. During the first week <a href="https://pure.royalholloway.ac.uk/portal/en/persons/peter-komisarczuk(2f94b004-09d5-44ca-ba25-f2866f5c9bc7).html">Prof. Peter Komisarczuk</a> presents the main concepts and definitions related to information security. <a href="http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~martin/">Prof. Keith M. Martin</a> introduces one of the main building blocks of information security: Cryptography. During the third and fourth week I present the main concepts behind computer and network security, and security management. Finally, on the last week of the course, Peter shows a model of the information security industry and presents the roles, careers and professional bodies in the information security industry.</p>
<p>We created this course so people with a limited technical background can follow and understand the main concepts behind information security. One of the benefits of Coursera as a MOOC platform is that it starts a new course session every week. This allows students to start the course when they want without having to wait until a specified start date.

I am a proud <em>madrileño</em> from Spain working as a Lecturer within the Information Security group at Royal Holloway, University of London. This is a kind of a new year’s resolution. My intention is to keep this website as updated as possible, adding all my recent publications and posting new stuff in the blog from time to time. I will generally post about academic stuff (research, papers, teaching, etc.) but I also intend to post about other random stuff that I find interesting. I hope you like it! If you have any comments or questions, do not hesitate to write me an email (you can find it on the <a href="https://www.jorgeblascoalis.com">homepage</a>).</p>Welcome to my brand new personal website!
