While still centered around the core database skills using a personal database system introduced in ITE 304, this course expands its coverage to the capabilities of an industrial- strength database management system. In addition to developing database applications, the course helps the students understand how large-scale packaged systems are highly dependent on the use of DBMSs. Building on the transactional database understanding, the course also provides an introduction to data and information management technologies that provide decision support capabilities under the broad business intelligence umbrella.

The course emphasizes the need for good Information systems security management. Its aims are to identify the problems associated with Information security management and to demonstrate how those problems are resolved. Therefore, Information security requires an understanding of relevant technological issues and of the social/ organizational issues. This leads to the development of a security policy based on a security model. Over the last decade, many security-related standards have been produced by international standards bodies. This module examines some of the most important of these standards in detail. In doing so it illustrates how international standards now cover many aspects of the analysis and design of secure systems.
