Milton Baar, Director Technology Innovation, has written a white paper that will be published in a research document for the Council for Asian Terrorism Research (CATR).

The Council for Asian Terrorism Research (CATR) was founded in 2005 to provide specialised research that draws from the diverse expertise and perspectives of resident experts across the South and South-east Asian regions. Through regular communication and collaboration, CATR members have developed new approaches, enhanced existing capabilities and built integrated and cooperative efforts to counter terrorist, insurgent, and other violent transnational threats in the Asia-Pacific region. CATR represents a commitment by its member institutions to engage in an ongoing program to develop a deeper understanding of the causes that give rise to terrorism and politically motivated violence, to forge more effective national and regional responses to share best practices in counter-terrorism / counter-radicalisation.

The white paper discusses aspects of cybercrime within Australia and evaluates the current state of identification and mitigation.

This course teaches post-graduate students the basis for vulnerabilities found in commercial operating systems and explores the various exposures and management options. Operating Systems covered in detail are OS390, OS400, Solaris 10, HP/UX11i, OpenVMS, various Linux, Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced Server, Microsoft Windows 2003 Server and Cisco IOS. The course includes practical, hands-on lab time with most of the operating systems. Course details may be found at http://www.ppdp.mq.edu.au/course_units/short_descriptions/index.html

ITEC854 - Information Security Management. This course teaches post-graduate students the practical aspects of Information Security Management and is a core subject in the post-graduate course. The 13 week course as a practical exercise, introducing students to ISO17799, ISO27001 and other frameworks including COBIT, PCIDSS, Sarbanes Oxley and ISM3. Course details may be found at http://www.comp.mq.edu.au/units/itec854/

ITEC855 - Information Security Technologies. This unit covers the fundamental technologies from which secure systems are constructed. It is intended both for post-graduate students who will progress to further study in security and for those wishing to understand the necessary basics of computer security. Course details may be found at http://www.comp.mq.edu.au/units/itec855/

ITEC856 - Operating Systems Programming. This unit covers the tools and techniques required to program the internals of an operating system. Topics covered in detail include operating systems' internal operations and structures, accessing and manipulating system structures and device drivers. Students complete a practical component, this year it is the creation of a device driver to control one of a selection of three student-built devices. Course details may be found at http://www.comp.mq.edu.au/units/itec856/

Additionally, Milton will be lecturing within the Centre for Policing, Intelligence and Counter Terrorism and will deliver the following course:

PICT808 - Cybercrime and Cyberterrorism. This unit will present a high-level overview of how cyberterrorist threats might be conceived in different horizontal applications, network and protocol layers. The unit explores how different vertical industries (e.g. the finance industry) face specific treats from their use of specific protocols and platforms. The "human factor" in dealing with cyberterrorist threats will be emphasised. Course details may be found at http://www.pict.mq.edu.au/academic.html#PICT808

Milton is also assisting in the creation of other units leading to a new degree in Computer Forensics, including PICT819, PICT820, PICT821 and PICT825. For more information, check the press releases from time to time.
