Big Data for Reliability and Security

This course covers the theoretical aspects of big data for reliability and security and stresses the practical systems aspects of such techniques. There are two challenge programming problems based on large real-world datasets that we have collected and curated. Topics:
1. Foundational material on reliability and security
2. Data analytic techniques for dependability
3. Big data security and insecurity
4. Case studies and challenge problems
