Preliminary study on the construction of a data privacy protection course based on a teaching-in-practice range by Zhe SUN, Hong NING, Lihua YIN, Binxing FANG

“…Since China’s Data Security Law, Personal Information Protection Law and related laws were formalized, demand for privacy protection technology talents has increased sharply, and data privacy protection courses have been gradually offered in the cyberspace security majors of various universities.Building on longstanding practices in data security research and teaching, the teaching team of “Academician Fang Binxing’s Experimental Class” (referred to as “Fang Class”) at Guangzhou University has proposed a teaching method for data privacy protection based on a teaching-in-practice range.In the selection of teaching course content, the teaching team selected eight typical key privacy protection techniques including anonymity model, differential privacy, searchable encryption, ciphertext computation, adversarial training, multimedia privacy protection, privacy policy conflict resolution, and privacy violation traceability.Besides, the corresponding teaching modules were designed, which were deployed in the teaching practice range for students to learn and train.Three teaching methods were designed, including the knowledge and application oriented teaching method which integrates theory and programming, the engineering practice oriented teaching method based on algorithm extension and adaptation, and the comprehensive practice oriented teaching method for practical application scenarios.Then the closed loop of “learning-doing-using” knowledge learning and application was realized.Through three years of privacy protection teaching practice, the “Fang class” has achieved remarkable results in cultivating students’ knowledge application ability, engineering practice ability and comprehensive innovation ability, which provided useful discussion for the construction of the initial course of data privacy protection.…”
