Co o cyberbezpieczeństwie każdy wiedzieć powinien W świecie, w którym większość naszych mniej lub bardziej wrażliwych danych przechowywana jest w sieci, cyberbezpieczeństwo powinno być tematem numer jeden. Niestety, na ogół nie jest, bo… Po prostu nie chce się nam myśleć o zastosowaniu odpowiednich zabezpieczeń. Stają się one dla nas kluczowe dopiero, kiedy ktoś się cyberwłamie i realnie skradnie coś, co było dla nas istotne: hasło do poczty e-mail, pieniądze z konta w banku, zdjęcia, które wolelibyśmy zachować dla siebie, itd. Tyle że wtedy jest już za późno. Ta książka powstała po to, by jej czytelnik zdążył wyprzedzić zagrożenie. Stanowi wprowadzenie do zagadnienia cyberbezpieczeństwa. Podzielona na kilka kluczowych części (systemy operacyjne, sieci komputerowe, aplikacje webowe, kryptografia, wreszcie cyberbezpieczeństwo jako takie), pozwala zapoznać się z najważniejszymi zagrożeniami i ze sposobami zabezpieczeń. Przybliża terminologię związaną z tematem i stanowi świetny punkt wyjścia do dalszego zgłębiania jego wybranych aspektów. Cyberniebezpieczeństwo czyha. Czy jesteś na nie przygotowany?

Having a knowledge of design patterns enables you, as a developer, to improve your code base, promote code reuse, and make the architecture more robust. As languages evolve, new features take time to fully understand before they are adopted en masse. The mission of this book is to ease the adoption of the latest trends and provide good practices for programmers.We focus on showing you the practical aspects of smarter coding in Java. We'll start off by going over object-oriented (OOP) and functional programming (FP) paradigms, moving on to describe the most frequently used design patterns in their classical format and explain how Java’s functional programming features are changing them.You will learn to enhance implementations by mixing OOP and FP, and finally get to know about the reactive programming model, where FP and OOP are used in conjunction with a view to writing better code. Gradually, the book will show you the latest trends in architecture, moving from MVC to microservices and serverless architecture. We will finish off by highlighting the new Java features and best practices. By the end of the book, you will be able to efficiently address common problems faced while developing applications and be comfortable working on scalable and maintainable projects of any size.
DevOps Bootcamp. The fastest way to learn DevOps

DevOps Bootcamp delivers practical learning modules in manageable chunks. Each chunk is delivered in a day, and each day is a productive one. Each day builds your competency in DevOps. You will be able to take the task you learn every day and apply it to cultivate the DevOps culture.Each chapter presents core concepts and key takeaways about a topic in DevOps and provides a series of hands-on exercises. You will not only learn the importance of basic concepts or practices of DevOps but also how to use different tools to automate application lifecycle management. We will start off by building the foundation of the DevOps concepts. On day two, we will perform Continuous Integration using Jenkins and VSTS both by configuring Maven-based JEE Web Application?. We will also integrate Jenkins and Sonar qube for Static Code Analysis. Further, on day three, we will focus on Docker containers where we will install and configure Docker and also create a Tomcat Container to deploy our Java based web application. On day four, we will create and configure the environment for application deployment in AWS and Microsoft Azure Cloud for which we will use Infrastructure as a Service and Open Source Configuration Management tool Chef. For day five, our focus would be on Continuous Delivery. We will automate application deployment in Docker container using Jenkins Plugin, AWS EC2 using Script, AWS Elastic Beanstalk using Jenkins Plugin, Microsoft Azure VM using script, and Microsoft Azure App Services Using Jenkins. We will also configure Continuous Delivery using VSTS. We will then learn the concept of Automated Testing on day six using Apache JMeter and URL-based tests in VSTS. Further, on day seven, we will explore various ways to automate application lifecycle management using orchestration. We will see how Pipeline can be created in Jenkins and VSTS, so the moment Continuous? Integration is completed successfully, Continuous Delivery will start and application will be deployed. On the final day, our focus would be on Security access to Jenkins and Monitoring of CI resources, and cloud-based resources in AWS and Microsoft Azure Platform as a Service.
