Covid19 and the Outbreak Narrative: How the Turkish State Produces and Obscures Gendered and Sexual Vulnerabilities
Cirikciel, Çağla ; Kolářová, Kateřina (advisor) ; Helman, Ivy Ann (referee)
How do the state institutions in Turkey (dis)articulate gender politics? How does the institutional discourse disintegrate gender politics? Where, when, and how do the institutions locate discourse of gender and sexuality into politics of pandemic? Where do institutions become silent? This thesis offers a feminist reading of the pandemic politics and discourse in Turkey; specifically, it analyzes the gendered tensions of the Covid-19 pandemic. Investigating the impacts of the pandemic discourse of the state on gender politics, I aim to unpack the state rhetoric where the official outbreak narrative generates a particular gender narrative. Observing that the state discourse obscures the gendered impacts of the pandemic, I work on locating the pandemic responses and discourses in Turkey. Approaching to politics of discourse as an issue of power and knowledge where power appears through the continuity of knowledge production, I elaborate on how an institutional discourse interprets, incorporates, articulate and disarticulate gender and sexuality overtly and covertly. As unpacking the discursive struggle of the state for mastery in gender and sexuality discourse, I demonstrate how the state reshapes and redirects the narratives on gender and sexuality within the politics of outbreak.

"Neither young, nor old" - A Case Study of Active Ageing in a Cultural and Educational Senior Center in Prague
Nováková, Pavla ; Ezzeddine, Petra (advisor) ; Synek, Michal (referee)
In my thesis, I deal with active ageing as a concept that is reflected in social policies. Active ageing presents activity as a key to satisfaction in older age and directs ageing population towards bigger independence and care about their health. I conducted my research in a chosen cultural and educational senior center in Prague. My main interest was how active ageing as an idea was transformed into social practice and how the activity was emphasized in the senior center and amongst its clients. The success of active ageing relates to culturally specific values as independence, activity, health, and self-realization (Lamb, 2020). Activity became a base for the hierarchization of activities, as well as people. The senior center which deals with the idea of active ageing is a safe space for its clients where activity represents a new social capital. However, this social capital has its limits as the COVID-19 pandemic has revealed. Keywords: active ageing, activity, social capital, vulnerability, senior center, neoliberalism

Black-Box Analysis of Wi-Fi Stacks Security
Venger, Adam ; Orsák, Michal (referee) ; Malinka, Kamil (advisor)
Zariadenia, na ktoré sa každodenne spoliehame, sú stále zložitejšie a využívajú zložitejšie protokoly. Jedným z týchto protokolov je Wi-Fi. S rastúcou zložitosťou sa zvyšuje aj potenciál pre implementačné chyby. Táto práca skúma Wi-Fi protokol a použitie fuzz testingu pre generovanie semi-validných vstupov, ktoré by mohli odhaliť zraniteľné miesta v zariadeniach. Špeciálna pozornosť bola venovaná testovaniu Wi-Fi v systéme ESP32 a ESP32-S2. Výsledkom práce je fuzzer vhodný pre testovanie akéhokoľvek Wi-Fi zariadenia, monitorovací nástroj špeciálne pre ESP32 a sada testovacích programov pre ESP32. Nástroj neodhalil žiadne potenciálne zraniteľnosti.

Development of a calculator for assessing vulnerabilities in Javascript
Škrhák, Pavel ; Fujdiak, Radek (referee) ; Holasová, Eva (advisor)
The aim of this work is to describe the known methods of vulnerability assessment, and to implement them in a web application using the Vue.js framework. The thesis describes two vulnerability assessment systems, namely CVSS (Common Vulnerability Scoring System) and OWASP (Open Web Application Security Project) Risk Rating Methodology. Their parts, metrics and methods of calculation of the evaluation are described. Subsequently, these systems are compared and their strengths and weaknesses are determined. The work then evaluates some known vulnerabilities using these two assessment methods. The work then describes the design of the frontend and backend of the web application. The frontend uses the Vue.js framework, which allows the creation of dynamic one-page web applications. The components and layout of the application are designed. Furthermore, the appearance of the front application and its components is designed. The backend was designed to suit with the Djnago framework, which together with the django REST framework can be used to quickly create an API (Application Programming Interface) communicating with the database. A model for storing data from a frontend application was designed. The work then describes the implementation of this application divided into frontend and backend. The backend describes the implementation of the API and the database. The implementation of the model itself, serializer and methods for communication with the frontend application are described. In the frontend, a vue router is created, which is used to dynamically change the content of the page, then the components themselves are created, which serve as building blocks of the application. These components contain three parts, namely structure, JavaScript code and CSS (Cascading Sytle Sheets). Components can pass data and call functions of other components. The last part of the work is testing of the application itself. Its functionality is tested by calculating the score of already assessed vulnerabilities and some items of the OWASP ASVS (Application Security Verification Standard). Furthermore, security is tested by testing several known vulnerabilities, along with testing with OWASP ASVS.

The Legal Status of Minors and Other Vulnerable Applicants for International Protection
Edelmannová, Anna ; Pítrová, Lenka (advisor) ; Scheu, Harald Christian (referee)
Persons who seek international protection in the European Union are entitled to number of rights contained in the EU law, international law and national law. Some applicants for international protection are entitled to additional rights and guarantees due to their weakened position. This thesis analyses the legal position of vulnerable applicants for international protection (or more precisely applicants with special needs). The position of minor applicants is dealt with in more detail. The thesis further deals with the legislation of the Common European Asylum System, attention is also paid to the European Court of Human Right's case- law, to the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child and to other relevant documents. All applicants for international protection can be seen as vulnerable. In the view of the European Court of Human Rights applicant for international protection is "as such, a member of a particularly underprivileged and vulnerable population group in need of special protection". The EU law does not explicitly describe applicants as vulnerable, but it entitles them to a certain standard of rights by which it reflects their difficult position. Furthermore, the Reception Conditions Directive and Asylum Procedures Directive define applicants with special needs (more precisely applicants...
