IW4500 Information Warfare Systems Engineering

This course applies Systems Engineering Principles to design an Information Warfare System. Project teams will develop an Information Warfare System from requirements determination through and including preliminary design. The five pillars of Information Warfare will be used in the design process, including information security considerations. Lectures will discuss both Systems Engineering principles and Information Warfare concepts.
