  Age of Deception - Cybersecurity...

  At the heart of cybersecurity is a paradox: Cooperation enables conflict. In Age of Deception, Jon R. Lindsay shows how widespread trust in cyberspace enables espionage and subversion.  
  The dark arts have long been part of global politics, but digital systems expand their scope and scale. Yet success in secret statecraft depends on political context, not just sophisticated technology. Lindsay provides a general theory of intelligence performance—the analogue to military performance in battle—to explain why spies and hackers alike depend on clandestine organizations and vulnerable institutions. 
  Through cases spanning codebreaking at Bletchley Park during WWII to the weaponization of pagers by Israel in 2024, Lindsay reveals continuity and change in secret statecraft. Along the way he explains why popular assumptions about cyber warfare are profoundly misleading. Offense does not simply dominate defense, for example, because the same digital complexity that expands opportunities for deception also creates potential for self-deception and counter-deception. Provocative and persuasive, Age of Deception offers crucial insights into the future of secret statecraft in cyberspace and beyond.

  Introduction to Power System...

  Power system protection systems have three basic components: Instrument transformers, Relays, Circuit breakers
  
  The function of the CT is to reproduce in its secondary winding a current I' that is proportional to the primary current I. The CT converts primary currents in the kiloamp range to secondary currents in the 0–5 ampere range for convenience of measurement.
  
  The function of the relay is to discriminate between normal operation and fault conditions. The OC relay in Figure 2 has an operating coil, which is connected to the CT secondary winding, and a set of contacts. When |I'| exceeds a specified ''pickup'' value, the operating coil causes the normally open contacts to close. When the relay contacts close, the trip coil of the circuit breaker is energized, which then causes the circuit breaker to open.
  
  System-protection components have the following design criteria:
  • Reliability: Operate dependably when fault conditions occur, even after remaining idle for months or years. Failure to do so may result in costly damages.
  • Selectivity: Avoid unnecessary, false trips.
  • Speed: Operate rapidly to minimize fault duration and equipment damage. Any intentional time delays should be precise.
  • Economy: Provide maximum protection at minimum cost.
  • Simplicity: Minimize protection equipment and circuitry.
  
  Since it is impossible to satisfy all these criteria simultaneously, compromises must be made in system protection.
  
  The book consists from the following sections:
  1. Chapter 1: Power System Faults:
  2. Chapter 2: Instrument Transformers.
  3. Chapter 3: Overcurrent and Earth Fault Protection Relays.
  4. Chapter 4: Radial System Protection.
  5. Chapter 5: Zones of Protection.
  6. Chapter 6: Differential Relays.
  7. Chapter 7: Distance Relays.
  8. Chapter 8: Transformer Protection.
  9. Chapter 9: Generator Protection.
  10. Chapter 10: Busbar Protection.
  11. Chapter 11: Circuit Breakers.
  12. Chapter 12: Fuses.
  13. Chapter 13: References.
