  2. Why CSCI 780? • For credits • Ph.D. requirement • Information security is important • System security • Network security

  3. Our Goal • Latest security research activities • Reading technical papers in recent years • How to do research in security area • How to read research paper? • How to write research paper? • How to write a paper review? • How to present your research work?

  4. What is CSCI 780? • This is a graduate level course • Reading papers • Two class presentations • Teach us • Two paper review reports • Insightful comments • Other than the presented papers, 2-3 pages • One term project • By yourself • 5 extra point if presented in the class, FCFS • Grading Policy • 10% class attendance • 20% Paper reviews • 30% Class presentation • 40% Term project

  5. Paper Reviews • Summarize the main idea of the paper • Problem they solved • Approach they took: novelty • How did they evaluate • Pros and Cons • Any ways to improve the work?

  6. Term Project • Proposal (Due on Oct. 1) • Problem statement • Progress report (Optional) • Preliminary results • Final report (Due on Dec. 3) • Complete project report
