Tokenomics. The Crypto Shift of Blockchains, ICOs, and Tokens
Sean Au, Thomas Power(GBP)
Tokenomics is the economy of this new world. This is a no-holds-barred, in-depth exploration of the way in which we can participate in the blockchain economy. The reader will learn the basics of bitcoin, blockchains, and tokenomics; what the very first ICO was; and how over a period of 5 years, various projects managed to raise the enormous sums of money they did. The book then provides insights from ICO experts and looks at what the future holds. By comparing the past, current, and future of this technology, the book will inform anyone, whatever motivates their interest.The crypto shift of blockchains, ICOs, and tokens is much more than just buying bitcoins, creating tokens, or raising millions in a minute in an ICO. It is a new paradigm shift from centralized to decentralized, from closed to open, and from opaqueness to transparency. ICOs and the creation of tokens during the craze of 2017 needed a lot of preparation, an understanding of cryptocurrencies and of emerging legal frameworks, but this has spurred a new movement to tokenize the world.The author gives an unbiased, authoritative picture of the current playing field, exploring the token opportunities and provides a unique insight into the developing world of this tokenized economy. This book will nourish hungry minds wanting to grow their knowledge in this fascinating area.

While Tomcat is one of the most popular servlet containers, its inner workings still remain a mystery to many developers. If you only have a superficial familiarity of how this container actually functions, much of its power remains untapped and underutilized. This book will provide you with all that you need to undertand how to effectively use Apache Tomcat. This book begins by providing detailed instructions on building a Tomcat distribution. The next few chapters introduce you to the conceptual underpinnings of web servers, the Java EE and servlet specifications, and the Tomcat container. Subsequent chapters address the key Tomcat components, taking care to provide you with the information needed to understand the internal workings of each component. Detailed examples let you walk through a Tomcat installation, stepping into key Tomcat components, as well as into your own custom servlets.During the course of the book you will encounter various structural components such as the Server and Service; containers such as the Engine, Host, Context, and Wrapper; and helpers such as the Loader, Manager, and Valve. You will also see how Tomcat implements the JNDI API to provide both a directory service for storage agnostic access to its resources, as well as a naming service that implements the Java EE Environment Naming Context.Along the way you will learn how various elements of the servlet 2.5 specification, as well as the HTTP RFCs are implemented by a servlet container. By the end of your journey, you will be able to count yourself as part of the elite minority of Java EE web developers who truly understand what goes on under the covers of a servlet container.

Modern organizations rely on complex vendor ecosystems, but third-party risk management (TPRM) and cybersecurity often operate in silos. This book shows how to connect vendor risk management with supply chain cybersecurity using a practical, lifecycle-driven approach.You’ll design a program covering onboarding, vendor risk assessment, continuous monitoring, and offboarding. You’ll begin by examining why TPRM and cybersecurity often operate in separate lanes, and what that gap costs in downtime, breach impact, and compliance exposure. Next, you’ll develop a modern taxonomy of supply chain risk, including fourth-party dependencies and software supply chain concerns, so risk discussions use consistent categories and measurable assumptions.From there, you’ll adopt a lifecycle-based model to structure vendor onboarding, assessment, monitoring, and offboarding—supported by vendor tiering, segmentation, and control mapping. The final chapter focuses on the regulatory blueprint: how to interpret NIST C-SCRM, ISO/IEC 27036, DORA, GDPR, and Executive Order 14028, then convert them into evidence-driven controls and audit-ready documentation.
