Modern adversaries rely on stealth, living-off-the-land techniques, and zero-day exploitation to evade traditional security controls. This practical guide shows experienced defenders how to move beyond reactive alerts and build a proactive threat hunting capability driven by cyber threat intelligence.Written for seasoned cybersecurity professionals, the book demonstrates how to formulate CTI-driven hunt hypotheses and detect advanced persistent threats by analyzing adversary behavior across the Cyber Kill Chain. You’ll learn how to track APT infrastructure, map attacker TTPs using the MITRE ATT&CK framework, and identify post-exploitation activity that signals successful compromise.Through hands-on exercises, you’ll apply behavioral analytics, detection engineering, and machine learning–based anomaly detection to uncover what signature-based tools miss. Coverage includes threat hunting in cloud, hybrid, and ICS/OT environments, with real-world techniques for lateral movement, persistence, privilege escalation, and data exfiltration.By the end of this book, you’ll be equipped to run intelligence-led threat hunts, detect advanced threats earlier, and operationalize CTI as a core part of your defensive strategy.

Recent developments in deep learning, including Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs), Variational Autoencoders (VAEs), and Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) are creating impressive AI results in our news headlines - such as AlphaGo Zero beating world chess champions, and generative AI that can create art paintings that sell for over $400k because they are so human-like.Advanced Deep Learning with Keras is a comprehensive guide to the advanced deep learning techniques available today, so you can create your own cutting-edge AI. Using Keras as an open-source deep learning library, you'll find hands-on projects throughout that show you how to create more effective AI with the latest techniques.The journey begins with an overview of MLPs, CNNs, and RNNs, which are the building blocks for the more advanced techniques in the book. You’ll learn how to implement deep learning models with Keras and TensorFlow 1.x, and move forwards to advanced techniques, as you explore deep neural network architectures, including ResNet and DenseNet, and how to create autoencoders. You then learn all about GANs, and how they can open new levels of AI performance. Next, you’ll get up to speed with how VAEs are implemented, and you’ll see how GANs and VAEs have the generative power to synthesize data that can be extremely convincing to humans - a major stride forward for modern AI. To complete this set of advanced techniques, you'll learn how to implement DRL such as Deep Q-Learning and Policy Gradient Methods, which are critical to many modern results in AI.
