+\emph{Summary:}
+In this learning session we will cover the foundations of security.
+By this we mean what security is all about, \eg what types of properties we are 
+interested in and what we want to achieve in our security work.
+We will also introduce the scientific method and particularly role in the area 
+of security.
+
+There are many human aspects to security, understanding them is important.
+There are many ways to attack systems through their human operators.
+We cover a variety of examples of such attacks and some aspects of human 
+psychology.
+
+\emph{Intended learning outcomes:}
+After this session you should be able:
+\begin{itemize}
+  \item to \emph{understand} the what security is generally about.
+  \item to \emph{differentiate} which types of scientific methods are 
+    appropriate to answer a given question.
+  \item to \emph{adopt} an adversarial thinking for situtions involving humans.
+  \item to \emph{incorporate} basic psychology in the design of a system to 
+    increase its security.
+\end{itemize}
+
+\emph{Reading:}
+You should read Gollmann's chapter on \enquote{Foundations of Computer 
+  Security}~\cite[Ch.~3]{Gollmann2011cs}.
+There he attempts at a definition of Computer Security and related terms, \eg 
+confidentiality, integrity, and availability, which we need for our treatment of 
+the topic.
+Anderson also covers this in Chapter 1 of~\cite{Anderson2008sea}.
+He also treats a wider area than just \emph{computer} security, which is good 
+for us, he covers many aspects of security in different examples.
+
+The scientific method is covered in \enquote{How to Design Computer Security 
+  Experiments}~\cite{HowToDesignSecurityExperiments}.
+This paper discusses the scientific method of (parts of) the security field.
+For a more in-depth reflection on the state of security as a scientific 
+pursuit, we recommend \enquote{SoK: Science, Security and the Elusive Goal of 
+  Security as a Scientific Pursuit}~\cite{SecurityAsAScience}.
+
+Anderson gives a short summary of the psychology of users, their strengths and 
+weaknesses, in Chapter 2 \enquote{Usability and Psychology} of 
+\enquote{Security Engineering}~\cite{Anderson2008sea}.
