A Government Librarian's Guide to Information Governance and Data Privacy
This book provides a concise and usable overview of the practical implications of important public sector United States federal, state, and municipal laws and standards related to information governance, as they pertain to librarians, research staff, universities, corporate regulatory managers, and public-sector information governance professionals. It is the first in a series of two volumes addressing public sector information governance compliance matters from the perspective of our target audience.
Topics addressed in the book include:
* the evolving role of librarians and the need for librarians and legal researchers to understand the principles of information governance,
* the importance of broad-based regulatory IG principles such as the Federal Records Act, the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980 and 36 CFR Chapter XII, Subchapter B – Records Management, that have been promulgated by various federal government agencies in framing public-sector IG principles,
* a survey of interpretive surveys from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) that further elucidate the core IG principles applicable to public sector stakeholders,
* case studies detailing the application of important IG principles by federal agencies and bodies, and
* a survey of important IG issues facing state and local governments.

Learn Kubernetes Security
Secure your container environment against cyberattacks and deliver robust deployments with this practical guide
Key Features
* Explore a variety of Kubernetes components that help you to prevent cyberattacks
* Perform effective resource management and monitoring with Prometheus and built-in Kubernetes tools
* Learn techniques to prevent attackers from compromising applications and accessing resources for crypto-coin mining
Book Description
Kubernetes is an open source orchestration platform for managing containerized applications. Despite widespread adoption of the technology, DevOps engineers might be unaware of the pitfalls of containerized environments. With this comprehensive book, you'll learn how to use the different security integrations available on the Kubernetes platform to safeguard your deployments in a variety of scenarios.
Learn Kubernetes Security starts by taking you through the Kubernetes architecture and the networking model. You'll then learn about the Kubernetes threat model and get to grips with securing clusters. Throughout the book, you'll cover various security aspects such as authentication, authorization, image scanning, and resource monitoring. As you advance, you'll learn about securing cluster components (the kube-apiserver, CoreDNS, and kubelet) and pods (hardening image, security context, and PodSecurityPolicy). With the help of hands-on examples, you'll also learn how to use open source tools such as Anchore, Prometheus, OPA, and Falco to protect your deployments.
By the end of this Kubernetes book, you'll have gained a solid understanding of container security and be able to protect your clusters from cyberattacks and mitigate cybersecurity threats.
What you will learn
* Understand the basics of Kubernetes architecture and networking
* Gain insights into different security integrations provided by the Kubernetes platform
* Delve into Kubernetes' threat modeling and security domains
* Explore different security configurations from a variety of practical examples
* Get to grips with using and deploying open source tools to protect your deployments
* Discover techniques to mitigate or prevent known Kubernetes hacks
Who this book is for
This book is for security consultants, cloud administrators, system administrators, and DevOps engineers interested in securing their container deployments. If you're looking to secure your Kubernetes clusters and cloud-based deployments, you'll find this book useful. A basic understanding of cloud computing and containerization is necessary to make the most of this book.

Key Features
* Understand SQL injection and its effects on websites and other systems
* Get hands-on with SQL injection using both manual and automated tools
* Explore practical tips for various attack and defense strategies relating to SQL injection
Book Description
SQL injection (SQLi) is probably the most infamous attack that can be unleashed against applications on the internet. SQL Injection Strategies is an end-to-end guide for beginners looking to learn how to perform SQL injection and test the security of web applications, websites, or databases, using both manual and automated techniques. The book serves as both a theoretical and practical guide to take you through the important aspects of SQL injection, both from an attack and a defense perspective.
You'll start with a thorough introduction to SQL injection and its impact on websites and systems. Later, the book features steps to configure a virtual environment, so you can try SQL injection techniques safely on your own computer. These tests can be performed not only on web applications but also on web services and mobile applications that can be used for managing IoT environments. Tools such as sqlmap and others are then covered, helping you understand how to use them effectively to perform SQL injection attacks.
By the end of this book, you will be well-versed with SQL injection, from both the attack and defense perspective.
What you will learn
* Focus on how to defend against SQL injection attacks
* Understand web application security
* Get up and running with a variety of SQL injection concepts
* Become well-versed with different SQL injection scenarios
* Discover SQL injection manual attack techniques
* Delve into SQL injection automated techniques
Who this book is for
This book is ideal for penetration testers, ethical hackers, or anyone who wants to learn about SQL injection and the various attack and defense strategies against this web security vulnerability. No prior knowledge of SQL injection is needed to get started with this book.

Cybercrime and the law : challenges, issues, and outcomes
The first full-scale overview of cybercrime, law, and policy
The exponential increase in cybercrimes in the past decade has raised new issues and challenges for law and law enforcement. Based on case studies drawn from her work as a lawyer, Susan W. Brenner identifies a diverse range of cybercrimes, including crimes that target computers (viruses, worms, Trojan horse programs, malware and DDoS attacks) and crimes in which the computer itself is used as a tool (cyberstalking, cyberextortion, cybertheft, and embezzlement). Illuminating legal issues unique to investigations in a digital environment, Brenner examines both national law enforcement agencies and transnational crime, and shows how cyberspace erodes the functional and empirical differences that have long distinguished crime from terrorism and both from warfare.

Examines what social engineering is, the methods used by hackers to gather information, and ways to prevent social engineering threats.
Book
Biohackers
Biohackers explores fundamental changes occuring in the circulation and ownership of scientific information. Alessandro Delfanti argues that the combination of the ethos of 20th century science, the hacker movement and the free software movement is producing an open science culture which redefines the relationship between researchers, scientific institutions and commercial companies. Biohackers looks at the emergence of the citizen biology community ‘DIYbio’, the shift to open access by the American biologist Craig Venter and the rebellion of the Italian virologist Ilaria Capua against WHO data-sharing policies. Delfanti argues that these biologists and many others are involved in a transformation of both life sciences and information systems, using open access tools and claiming independence from both academic and corporate institutions.
