Lecture Cancelled!
Unfortunately, this lecture will not take place in the winter term 2022/2023.
Advanced Research Topics in IT Security - ARTIS
ARTIS ("Advanced Research Topics in IT-Security") is a lecture that is co-taught by professors from both Ulm University and our cooperation partner at German University Cairo. As too few students have registered for the lecture on GUC side by their deadline, we have to cancel this course for this winter semester. We will try to offer it again next summer semester. Until then, you can switch to PETS or the new EMS course on embedded security.
