🛡️ Information Systems Security and Privacy

This repository contains the exercises and lab materials for the Information Systems Security and Privacy course at the Polytechnic University of Bari.

🔎 Contents

Course contents are organized into two primary directories, each targeting a distinct layer of the modern cybersecurity landscape:

• /high_level: Focuses on abstract security principles and cryptographic implementations, including exercises and conceptual frameworks related to encryption, robust user authentication protocols, and the design of access control systems.
• /low_level: A technical deep dive into systems security and related vulnerabilities. The contents prioritize low-level exploitation techniques, including memory corruption vulnerabilities such as out-of-bounds reads, integer overflows, and format string exploits.
