Infuse efficiency into risk mitigation practices by optimizing resource use with the latest best practices in vulnerability management. Organizations spend tremendous time and resources addressing vulnerabilities to their technology, software, and organizations. But are those time and resources well spent? Often, the answer is no, because we rely on outdated practices and inefficient, scattershot approaches. Effective Vulnerability Management takes a fresh look at a core component of cybersecurity, revealing the practices, processes, and tools that can enable today's organizations to mitigate risk efficiently and expediently in the era of Cloud, DevSecOps and Zero Trust. Every organization now relies on third-party software and services, ever-changing cloud technologies, and business practices that introduce tremendous potential for risk, requiring constant vigilance. It's more crucial than ever for organizations to successfully minimize the risk to the rest of the organization's success. This book describes the assessment, planning, monitoring, and resource allocation tasks each company must undertake for successful vulnerability management. And it enables readers to do away with unnecessary steps, streamlining the process of securing organizational data and operations. It also covers key emerging domains such as software supply chain security and human factors in cybersecurity.

The easy way to get started coding and analyzing data in the R programming language. Statistical Analysis with R Essentials For Dummies is your reference to all the core concepts about R―the widely used, open-source programming language and data analysis tool. This no-nonsense book gets right to the point, eliminating review material, wordy explanations, and fluff. Understand all you need to know about the foundations of R, swiftly and clearly. Perfect for a brush-up on the basics or as an everyday desk reference on the job, this is the reliable little book you can always turn to for answers. As the title indicates, this book covers the essentials of statistics and R. Although it’s designed to get you up and running in a hurry, and to quickly answer your questions, it’s not just a cookbook. Before I tell you about one of R’s features, I give you the statistical foundation it’s based on. My goal is that you understand that feature when you use it — and that you use it effectively. In the proper context, R can be a great tool for learning statistics and for refreshing what you already know. I’ve tried to supply that context in this book. Although the development of statistics concepts proceeds in a logical way, I organized this book so you can open it up in any chapter and start reading. The idea is for you to quickly find what you’re looking for and use it immediately — whether it’s a statistical concept or an R feature.

This book presents the fundamentals of vector retrieval. To this end, it delves into important data structures and algorithms that have been successfully used to solve the vector retrieval problem efficiently and effectively. We are witness to a few years of remarkable developments in Artificial Intelligence (AI) with the use of advanced machine learning algorithms, and in particular, Deep Learning. Gargantuan, complex neural networks that can learn through self-supervision—and quickly so with the aid of specialized hardware—transformed the research landscape so dramatically that, overnight it seems, many fields experienced not the usual, incremental progress, but rather a leap forward. Machine translation, natural language understanding, information retrieval, recommender systems, and Computer Vision are but a few examples of research areas that have had to grapple with the shock. Countless other disciplines beyond Computer Science such as robotics, biology, and chemistry too have benefited from Deep Learning. These neural networks and their training algorithms may be complex, and the scope of their impact broad and wide, but nonetheless they are simply functions in a high-dimensional space. A trained neural network takes a vector as input, crunches and transforms it in various ways, and produces another vector, often in some other space.

Microservices can be a very effective approach for delivering value to your organization and to your customers. If you get them right, microservices help you to move fast by making changes to small parts of your system hundreds of times a day. But if you get them wrong, microservices will just make everything more complicated. In this book, technical engineering leader Sarah Wells provides practical, in-depth advice for moving to microservices. Microservices are simple in concept, but the devil is in the details. There are so many aspects to getting the most out of this style of architecture, while also dealing with the complexity it brings. The problem is, getting the most out of microservices often is about nuance. The development of any software-based system requires people and technology coming together, and with microservices the people and organizational aspects are often greatly overlooked. People assume the answer must be a new programming language, more Kubernetes clusters, or perhaps a new vendor. But this approach results in an orgy of technological overload that ends up looking at less than half of the story.
