That is an important issue in the actual educational context where e-learning increases in popularity and more and more people are taking online courses. The approach to teach many students at the same time, and the students possibility to learn material at their own pace have been very successful. There are many important elements that must be taken into consideration: access control, authentication, data integrity, content protection, etc. Information security can be obtained using functions such as cryptography and network protocols.
