ITECH7620 Privacy and Trust
The impacts of cyber-attacks and hacking can have enormous negative effects on organisations, society, and civilians in terms of financial loss and threats to privacy and security. In this increasingly digital world, trust, transparency, and accountability are key tenets for the safeguarding of sensitive information when sharing digital data and services. This unit will cover fundamental laws and principles governing information privacy and security as well as cyber risk assessment, mitigation, and management. We will also cover computational principles, methods, and mechanisms related to trust and privacy for safeguarding sensitive applications and services. You will also gain knowledge of digital trust, sharing the responsibility across connected devices and services, and understanding the types of partnerships that enable them.
Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) unit fee
A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is one that is subsidised by the Australian Government, which means students only pay the student contribution amount of the tuition fee. CSPs are only available to eligible domestic students.
The student contribution amount depends on the unit and how much funding the Government provides. Each unit is classified into a band based on its discipline (which may be different to your overall course discipline).
2025 student contribution amount: $1,164
2025 grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $1,164
* If you are a continuing student (who commenced your course before 1 January 2021) you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
