CI7160 (Mobile Security) 2020-21 Coursework Part C (Mobile Security Report)A4.2.6 CI7160 (Mobile Security) 2020-21 Coursework Part C (Mobile Security Report) This coursework allows you to extend your knowledge and understanding of a particular security-related topic presented during the taught component of the module. This coursework assessment will count for 60% of the overall marks for the module. SYNOPSIS The overall aim of this coursework is to write a technical paper on the application of principle of mobile security techniques to a well-defined area within the area of mobile computing domain including a case study. This will also comprise a discussion of social and ethical issues in your chosen mobile application. For suitable security techniques you may select techniques presented during the lecture (e.g. security assessment key management protocols or cryptographic techniques) or choose a technique of your choice provided you have it approved by the coursework setter. The following areas of mobile security can be used as application mobile domains: mobile ad-hoc networking mobile health mobile cloud mobile banking mobile learning or mobile social networking. You may choose a different area but please consult with the module teaching team in to assess its suitability. The case study must present either an existing research prototype commercial system or your own original idea. The application domain should not be based on a case study involving a real organisation without the written permission from a senior person within the organisation and this written permission must be appended to the report. If you are using a real organisation make sure you are not including any confidential information in your coursework report and contact the module leader to arrange additional precaution measures. Your discussion of social and ethical issues should identify one pertinent aspect that may be seen as a security or privacy-related threat in the application area illustrate its relevance for the case study and suggest some ideas for its mitigation. REPORT STRUCTURE The report must contain a title abstract key terms introduction section main body and a conclusion. In addition to this full references are required as are captions for all illustrations and tables. You should include your affiliations with the report i.e. your name School and University MSc course and K-number. The IEEE conference Microsoft Word template can be found online and is also available on Canvas for this report and must be followed. The abstract should summarize the scope of the paper in no more than 150 words. The report must be 4 pages (this is approximately 3000 words in length using the 2-column IEEE format and font size prescribed by the template). Please pay attention to the marking scheme as a further guidance for content that you should include in the main body of the report. References should take the following form: full list of authors (i.e. not ‘et al.’) title of paper/book title of journal (publisher if a book) year of publication volume number and first and last page numbers. If you are using a Web reference the full URL must be included along with the date of access. The referencing should be done using the Vancouver referencing style Remember that this is to be a technical report so make sure the contents are presented in a format suitable for publication in a technical conference or journal.
