CeLLO’s continuing education programs are developed and conducted by professors at Hochschule Offenburg: this ensures that the seminars are led by experienced faculty, are relevant to real-world practice, and maintain a high academic standard.

Current offerings are of particular interest to educational institutions and companies:

a) Educational institutions:

Changes in the educational landscape mean that teachers must acquire and develop additional subject-specific knowledge alongside their core pedagogical competencies. Hochschule Offenburg therefore offers targeted continuing education modules in the fields of computer sciences, new media, communication, and strategy—modules that were developed from school projects and deliver results that can be directly applied in practice. The seminars are organized by CeLLO at Hochschule Offenburg. The seminars are funded by the University and offered in cooperation with the Ortenau Educational Region (BRO), the Offenburg State School Authority, and the Freiburg Regional Council. The seminars range from “Programming in Java” to “Smart Use of Web 2.0” and “Public Relations in Schools.”

b) Companies:

The course offerings for companies are aimed at junior staff, specialists, and executives across all industries and, in collaboration with professors from Hochschule Offenburg who have extensive theoretical and practical experience, provide an excellent opportunity to bring new expertise into the company. The seminars are organized by CeLLO at Hochschule Offenburg. The seminars range from “Leadership for Young Executives” to “Rating and Risk Management” and “Cost Management in Companies.” 

CeLLO uses the Moodle e-learning platform to support its continuing education programs and courses.

What value does the event offer?

Threats are identified as early as the design phase, even before any code is written.
This helps avoid costly rework.
Modeling the software and data flows provides a clearer picture of the system.
Even non-security experts on the team can understand where potential vulnerabilities lie.
The earlier a problem is detected, the less expensive it is to fix.
According to studies, fixing bugs during operation is often 10 times more expensive than doing so during the planning phase.
Decisions regarding encryption, authentication, role models, etc., are based on concrete threat scenarios rather than gut feelings.
Threat models provide valuable artifacts for audits, e.g., in the context of ISO 27001, GDPR, NIST, etc.
They support the traceability of security measures.

Description / Contents
Threat modeling is a proven analysis technique for identifying potential vulnerabilities and risks in the early development phase of applications or services. Implementing security measures early in the software lifecycle enables a “Secure by Design” approach, which not only enhances security but can also reduce development costs. The seminar covers, among other topics, the STRIDE methodology, the C4 architectural approach, and existing supporting tools. Practical case studies and exercises specialize in the material.
