Palo Alto Networks from Policy to Code. Automate PAN-OS security policies with Python precision
Nikolay Matveev, Migara Ekanayake
Palo Alto Networks firewalls are the gold standard in enterprise security, but managing them manually often leads to endless configurations, error-prone changes, and difficulty maintaining consistency across deployments.Written by cybersecurity experts with deep Palo Alto Networks experience, this book shows you how to transform firewall management with automation, using a code-driven approach that bridges the gap between powerful technology and practical implementation.You’ll start with next-gen firewall fundamentals before advancing to designing enterprise-grade security policies, applying threat prevention profiles, URL filtering, TLS decryption, and application controls to build a complete policy framework. Unlike other resources that focus on theory or vendor documentation, this hands-on guide covers best practices and real-world strategies. You’ll learn how to automate policy deployment using Python and PAN-OS APIs, structure firewall configurations as code, and integrate firewalls with IT workflows and infrastructure-as-code tools.By the end of the book, you’ll be able to design, automate, test, and migrate firewall policies with confidence, gaining practical experience in quality assurance techniques, pilot testing, debugging, and phased cutovers—all while maintaining security and minimizing business impact.

The pandas library is massive, and it's common for frequent users to be unaware of many of its more impressive features. The official pandas documentation, while thorough, does not contain many useful examples of how to piece together multiple commands as one would do during an actual analysis. This book guides you, as if you were looking over the shoulder of an expert, through situations that you are highly likely to encounter.This new updated and revised edition provides you with unique, idiomatic, and fun recipes for both fundamental and advanced data manipulation tasks with pandas. Some recipes focus on achieving a deeper understanding of basic principles, or comparing and contrasting two similar operations. Other recipes will dive deep into a particular dataset, uncovering new and unexpected insights along the way. Many advanced recipes combine several different features across the pandas library to generate results.

Penetration Testing: A Survival Guide. A Survival Guide
Wolf Halton, Bo Weaver, Juned Ahmed Ansari,...
The need for penetration testers has grown well over what the IT industry ever anticipated. Running just a vulnerability scanner is no longer an effective method to determine whether a business is truly secure. This learning path will help you develop the most effective penetration testing skills to protect your Windows, web applications, and Android devices. The first module focuses on the Windows platform, which is one of the most common OSes, and managing its security spawned the discipline of IT security. Kali Linux is the premier platform for testing and maintaining Windows security. Employs the most advanced tools and techniques to reproduce the methods used by sophisticated hackers. In this module first,you’ll be introduced to Kali's top ten tools and other useful reporting tools. Then, you will find your way around your target network and determine known vulnerabilities so you can exploit a system remotely. You’ll not only learn to penetrate in the machine, but will also learn to work with Windows privilege escalations.The second module will help you get to grips with the tools used in Kali Linux 2.0 that relate to web application hacking. You will get to know about scripting and input validation flaws, AJAX, and security issues related to AJAX. You will also use an automated technique called fuzzing so you can identify flaws in a web application. Finally, you’ll understand the web application vulnerabilities and the ways they can be exploited.In the last module, you’ll get started with Android security. Android, being the platform with the largest consumer base, is the obvious primary target for attackers. You’ll begin this journey with the absolute basics and will then slowly gear up to the concepts of Android rooting, application security assessments, malware, infecting APK files, and fuzzing. You’ll gain the skills necessary to perform Android application vulnerability assessments and to create an Android pentesting lab.This Learning Path is a blend of content from the following Packt products:• Kali Linux 2: Windows Penetration Testing by Wolf Halton and Bo Weaver• Web Penetration Testing with Kali Linux, Second Edition by Juned Ahmed Ansari• Hacking Android by Srinivasa Rao Kotipalli and Mohammed A.

Gdy tylko narodziły się pierwsze metody zapisu i komunikowania się, pojawiła się też konieczność zabezpieczenia informacji przed tymi, którzy mogliby wykorzystać je na niekorzyść osób dysponujących tymi informacjami. Od bezpieczeństwa ważnych informacji zależały często losy całych państw i narodów. O rozstrzygnięciach wielkich bitew nierzadko decydowały inteligencja i determinacja pojedynczych osób, które potrafiły odpowiednio skutecznie szyfrować (bądź też deszyfrować) nadawane (lub przechwytywane) komunikaty. O tej fascynującej dziedzinie wiedzy opowiada książka Podstawy kryptografii. Wydanie III. Wprowadza ona czytelnika w podstawowe zagadnienia kryptografii bez przygniatania nadmiarem teorii i skomplikowaną matematyką. Kusi za to barwnymi opisami i pasjonującymi przykładami "kryptograficznych wojen". Można dzięki niej poznać historię rozwoju technik szyfrowania informacji, matematyczne podstawy kryptografii, stojącą za nią teorię oraz praktyczne zastosowania tej nauki. Niezależnie od tego, czy chcesz poznać kryptografię na własny użytek, czy jest Ci to potrzebne w celach zawodowych, książka ta okaże się doskonałym przewodnikiem po świecie szyfrów, kluczy i algorytmów zabezpieczających dane. Znajdziesz w niej informacje na temat protokołów SSL i SSH, a także szczegółowy opis algorytmu SHA3.

Zadbaj o bezpieczeństwo swojego komputera Poznaj zagrożenia, na jakie narażony jest komputer Naucz się kontrolować dostęp do komputera Stosuj techniki zapewniające bezpieczeństwo w sieci Czy mój komputer na pewno jest bezpieczny? Wiele osób zadaje sobie to pytanie dopiero w momencie, kiedy system zaczyna zachowywać się w podejrzany sposób. Okazuje się wówczas, że skaner wykrywa dziesiątki, a nawet setki wirusów, programy zaczynają działać nieprawidłowo, a z dysku giną ważne dane. Pół biedy, jeśli jest to tylko domowy komputer z prywatnymi plikami. Dużo gorsze skutki może mieć włamanie do firmowej bazy danych lub przechwycenie poufnej komunikacji. Książka "Podstawy ochrony komputerów" to wszechstronne wprowadzenie do najważniejszych zagadnień dotyczących bezpieczeństwa danych i sprzętu. Czytając ją, poznasz zagrożenia, jakie czyhają na użytkowników komputerów, ale także skuteczne techniki ochrony. Nauczysz się kontrolować dostęp do danych, prowadzić efektywną politykę zabezpieczeń, wykrywać i usuwać wirusy oraz zapobiegać przenikaniu ich do systemu. Dowiesz się, jak zapewnić bezpieczeństwo komputera w sieci oraz jak używać szyfrowania do przesyłania poufnych informacji.
