Dayıoğlu Günlüğü (24) permalink
Bilkent Üniversitesi Bilgisayar Mühendisliği Bölümü‘nde, 6 Ocak salı günü Dr. Ali Aydın Selçuk‘un davetlisi olarak CS519 dersinin son gününde sabah 08:30′da yazılım mühendisleri için güvenlik konusunda bir seminer vereceğim. Ne yazık ki hala neredeyse hiç bir mühendislik programında yazılım güvenliği ile ilgili konulardan söz edilmiyor ve en temel yazılım güvenliği problemleri bile öğrenciler açısından bilinmiyor. Bu nedenle seminer konusunu yazılım güvenliği üzerine kurgulamayı önerdim, sağolsun Ali Aydın hoca da kabul etti. Mümkün olursa pratik örnekler ...Shared by emrahustun (28) Tim Watson (6)Contribute comment -
