Change of Tutorial and Course location for 2nd and 3rd of June

Hi,

Due to politicians visiting CISPA on June 2nd and 3rd, the CISPA building will be closed to the public. Unfortunately, we have been informed that we need to move the course to another location. To make matters worse, the Computer Science department is also unable to provide a room large enough for all students. As a result, for this specific week, the tutorial and lecture will move from the CISPA C0 building on campus to CISPA's D1 building in St. Ingbert. Additionally, the lecture (but not the tutorial) will start 15 minutes late: at 13:15 c.t. instead of 13:00 c.t.

The address and room details are below:

Tutorial: Start: 13:00 c.t. CISPA D1 – Room 0.15 (Event Room) Kaiserstraße 21, 66386 St. Ingbert

Lecture: Start: 13:15 c.t. CISPA D1 – Room 0.15 (Event Room) Kaiserstraße 21, 66386 St. Ingbert

There is a bus running every 30 minutes from the university campus to St. Ingbert. We apologize for the inconvenience; this was entirely outside of our control.

Cheers,

Ali

Removing inactive students from CMS

Written on 07.05.26 by Ali Abbasi

Hi, 

Just FYI, starting next week, we will remove students who have not submitted their homework from the course cms, as we assume they are dropping and do not see a realistic path to passing. 

Cheers,

Ali

Hi, 

We have been informed by CISPA that we need to change the location of the tutorial and the time of our lecture next week. 

To this end, this is gonna be the changes:

 

Tutorial:

Room: HS001
Building: E1.3

Day: Tuesday, 05.05.2026
Time: 9 am – 11am
Tutorial: Foundations of Firmware Security
 

Lecture:

Room: HS002
Gebäude: E1.3

Day: Wednesday, 06.05.2026
Time: 9 am – 11am
Lecture: Foundations of Firmware Security
 

 

Unfortunately, as you can see, we have to change our location next week, and for the lecture specifically, we even have to change the time, as the university cannot provide a suitable lecture hall at our usual time. 

As a result, we don't have any option but to move forward with this change. 

 

Cheers,

Ali

Guest Lecture on Reverse Engineering

Written on 28.04.26 by Ali Abbasi

Hi, 

Just a heads up, tomorrow we have a guest lecture on firmware reverse engineering.

The guest of tomorrow generally has training at ReCon/OffensiveCon that usually costs 4k+ Euro and always sells out.

Do not miss out! 

Cheers,

Ali
