Master Informatique, Parcours : Fiabilité et sécurité informatique (FSI)

The course enables students to acquire the principles and techniques relating to the design, implementation and operation of computer systems and applications operating in an open, hi-tech environment. The subjects covered are those in the broad field of IT security (secure applications, security management, infrastructure administration, standards and quality, security auditing, R&D)

The course provides strong skills in the security and reliability of applications (web, mobile, embedded), organisational security, network security, hacking, cryptographic protocols and architectures, and formal methods. Emphasis is placed on teamwork, on concrete projects, benefiting from the input of the professionals involved in the course.

The course is labelled; SecNumEdu

The aim of this accreditation is to provide quality assurance to students and employers that training in the field of digital security complies with a charter and criteria defined by the European Commission. ANSSI in collaboration with the players and professionals in the field (higher education establishments, industry...).

The course draws on the skills of the Laboratoire d'Informatique et Systèmes (LIS) and in particular the Modelling and Vérification team and the Distributed Algorithmics team.

Knowing how to specify, redesign, have redesigned and operate modern critical systems (applications and infrastructures), focusing on reliability and safety from both a technical and organisational point of view.

In the first year, there is a choice between an internship or a tutored project on a theme of safety and reliability.

In the second year, there is a 5-6 month work placement and a 2-month tutored project, supervised by professional lecturers, chosen from the themes

• Web Application Security
• IS architecture and Sécurity
• Sécurity;audit

For students wishing to pursue a thesis, it is possible to apply for a laboratory placement in place of the tutored project.

The emphasis is on teamwork, practical projects on dedicated training facilities (root room and hacklab) and the use of new technologies; root » and « hacklab ») and bénéficiant de l'apport de nombreuses intervenants professionnels.

Following the switch to 2-year master's courses, we recommend applying for M1, even for holders of a master's degree or equivalent. Candidates may exceptionally be admitted directly to M2 if their course of study provides a sufficient amount of reliability, safety and practical experience.
