Don't forget the Univeristy of Calgary Computer Science department's claim to frame: James Gosling, who graduated from the University of Calgary in 1977 with a Bachelor of Science degree. Weee!
This course will objectively examine two major, modern concerns: spam and other forms of unsolicited bulk electronic communication, and spyware. Relevant legal and ethical issues will be covered, along with tie-ins to other fields like business and economics. Spamming and spyware techniques will be studied, as will current and upcoming countermeasures. Some related computer and network security problems will also be examined.
Course assignments will involve implementing spamming and spyware techniques, and their countermeasures, under controlled conditions. STRICT assignment protocols will be in effect; failure to adhere to these protocols will result in an "F" grade in the course.
You will be required to sign a form stating that you have read and understood the assignment protocols, and that you understand that misuse of the information in this course can result in civil and criminal penalties under the laws of Canada and of other countries.
