Industrial Cybersecurity. Efficiently secure critical infrastructure systems

Pascal Ackerman

With industries expanding, cyber attacks have increased significantly. Understanding your control system’s vulnerabilities and learning techniques to defend critical infrastructure systems from cyber threats is increasingly important. With the help of real-world use cases, this book will teach you the methodologies and security measures necessary to protect critical infrastructure systems and will get you up to speed with identifying unique challenges.Industrial cybersecurity begins by introducing Industrial Control System (ICS) technology, including ICS architectures, communication media, and protocols. This is followed by a presentation on ICS (in) security. After presenting an ICS-related attack scenario, securing of the ICS is discussed, including topics such as network segmentation, defense-in-depth strategies, and protective solutions. Along with practical examples for protecting industrial control systems, this book details security assessments, risk management, and security program development. It also covers essential cybersecurity aspects, such as threat detection and access management. Topics related to endpoint hardening such as monitoring, updating, and anti-malware implementations are also discussed.

Wierna rzeka

Stefan Żeromski

Wierna rzeka opisuje okres powstania styczniowego. Po przegranej bitwie pod Małogoszczem do zrujnowanego majątku Niezdoły dociera ciężko ranny powstaniec, książę Józef Odrowąż. Tam zajmuje się nim córka zarządcy majątku Salomea Brynicka, która wraz ze swym wiernym sługą, starym Szczepanem, opatruje jego rany. Musi także przygotować bezpieczną kryjówkę na wypadek, gdyby do dworu przyszli Rosjanie. Salomea długo ukrywa powstańca i pielęgnuje go podczas choroby. Z czasem obdarza Odrowąża uczuciem wbrew przestrogom starego opiekuna Szczepana.

Implementing Cisco Networking Solutions. Configure, implement, and manage complex network designs

Harpreet Singh

Most enterprises use Cisco networking equipment to design and implement their networks. However, some networks outperform networks in other enterprises in terms of performance and meeting new business demands, because they were designed with a visionary approach.The book starts by describing the various stages in the network lifecycle and covers the plan, build, and operate phases. It covers topics that will help network engineers capture requirements, choose the right technology, design and implement the network, and finally manage and operate the network. It divides the overall network into its constituents depending upon functionality, and describe the technologies used and the design considerations for each functional area. The areas covered include the campus wired network, wireless access network, WAN choices, datacenter technologies, and security technologies. It also discusses the need to identify business-critical applications on the network, and how to prioritize these applications by deploying QoS on the network.Each topic provides the technology choices, and the scenario, involved in choosing each technology, and provides configuration guidelines for configuring and implementing solutions in enterprise networks.

Machine Learning for OpenCV. Intelligent image processing with Python

Michael Beyeler

Machine learning is no longer just a buzzword, it is all around us: from protecting your email, to automatically tagging friends in pictures, to predicting what movies you like. Computer vision is one of today's most exciting application fields of machine learning, with Deep Learning driving innovative systems such as self-driving cars and Google’s DeepMind.OpenCV lies at the intersection of these topics, providing a comprehensive open-source library for classic as well as state-of-the-art computer vision and machine learning algorithms. In combination with Python Anaconda, you will have access to all the open-source computing libraries you could possibly ask for.Machine learning for OpenCV begins by introducing you to the essential concepts of statistical learning, such as classification and regression. Once all the basics are covered, you will start exploring various algorithms such as decision trees, support vector machines, and Bayesian networks, and learn how to combine them with other OpenCV functionality. As the book progresses, so will your machine learning skills, until you are ready to take on today's hottest topic in the field: Deep Learning.By the end of this book, you will be ready to take on your own machine learning problems, either by building on the existing source code or developing your own algorithm from scratch!

O poprawie Rzeczypospolitej

Andrzej Frycz Modrzewski

O naprawie Rzeczypospolitej to doniosłe dzieło Andrzeja Frycza Modrzewskiego, obrazujące stan Rzeczpospolitej doby renesansu i postulujące zmiany w duchu idealizmu politycznego, oparte na sprawiedliwych prawach i silnej władzy królewskiej. Traktat obejmował pięć ksiąg: O obyczajach, O prawie, O wojnie, O Kościele i O szkole, a tym samym stanowił rozległe kompendium wiedzy o działalności państwa.

Rozmowy z seryjnymi mordercami. Mrożące krew w żyłach studium zwyrodnialców

Christopher Berry-Dee

Christopher Berry-Dee to człowiek rozmawiający z seryjnymi zabójcami. Jako światowej sławy kryminolog śledczy zdobył zaufanie morderców z różnych kontynentów, odwiedzał ściśle strzeżone więzienia, w których przebywają, i szczegółowo dyskutował o ich potwornych zbrodniach. Unikatowe wywiady przeprowadzone przez autora w kilkunastu najcięższych zakładach karnych świata, rejestrowane na taśmie magnetofonowej i filmowej, zawierają opisy przerażających czynów. Christopher Berry-Dee przetworzył je w zdumiewającą książkę, która natychmiast stała się klasyką reportażu kryminalnego. Nie tylko opisuje spotkania z najbardziej amoralnymi ludźmi na świecie, ale także przytacza ich własne relacje na temat dokonanych przestępstw. Daje w ten sposób czytelnikom wgląd w psychikę ludzi, którzy popełnili najgorszą możliwą zbrodnię bezlitośnie pozbawili życia inną istotę ludzką.

Enchanted, Hildyard stays on the island, where he finds an old college chum, Stanley Owston, the estranged husband of the actress, who is the guardian of the girl, and the owner of the island. The adventures are continuing...
