- Thanks to ample additional reading material, there were lots of opportunities to deepen your knowledge if you are really interested.

Excellent»		6		18%

Genomsnitt: 3.75 (bidrar till totalt genomsnitt/jämförelseindex)

- Similar to the computer security course, it gave a good overview and enough opportunity to deepen your knowledge if you are interested in a specific topic. I like that approach, although it makes the course very easy if you just stick to the basics. » (Good)
- Fun!» (Good)
- I really feel that I have learnt something valuable» (Excellent)

19. What should definitely be preserved to next year?

- I would like to see more programming related exercises, and labs which span weeks and not hours.»
- Perhaps some IPv6 security issues? I know they are still quite unexplored, but that should make it quite interesting.»
- no comment»

Good»		16		50%
Very good»		13		40%

Genomsnitt: 3.25 (bidrar till totalt genomsnitt/jämförelseindex)

- Too simple, not very interesting.» (Bad)
- In general I prefer to have one bigger project which spans multiple topics rather than having smaller isolated labs, but each lab in itself was quite good, albeit quite easy. Then again, if the labs had been more work, I might have dropped the course, because I was too busy with my other courses already. Especially the final discussion with the teaching assistants are really helpful, because they can make sure that you really understood the material, and possibly point out things you did not consider yourself.» (Good)
- I learned a lot» (Good)
- could have been abit more thorough» (Very good)
- I came to learn a lot.» (Very good)
