Georgia Kalyva

Sinopse

With AI and machine learning (ML) models gaining popularity and integrating into more and more applications, it is more important than ever to ensure that models perform accurately and are not vulnerable to cyberattacks. However, attacks can target your data or environment as well. This book will help you identify security risks and apply the best practices to protect your assets on multiple levels, from data and models to applications and infrastructure.
This book begins by introducing what some common ML attacks are, how to identify your risks, and the industry standards and responsible AI principles you need to follow to gain an understanding of what you need to protect. Next, you will learn about the best practices to secure your assets. Starting with data protection and governance and then moving on to protect your infrastructure, you will gain insights into managing  and securing your Azure ML workspace. This book introduces DevOps practices to automate your tasks securely and explains how to recover from ML attacks. Finally, you will learn how to set a security benchmark for your scenario and best practices to maintain and monitor your security posture.
By the end of this book, you’ll be able to implement best practices to assess and secure your ML assets throughout the Azure Machine Learning life cycle.

Gaming Industry

Introbooks Team

Gaming is among the most convenient way to relax the mind and for recreation. A number of people are the fan of gaming and it can be seen often that people spend a lot of their time playing games. The technology has changed a lot and it is progressively changing. There was a time when there were normal sets of games, such as Ludo or Chess. These games were kept in homes to spend time or for recreation. Slowly, the computer took place, and everything changed. Many people are brought up playing the hand video games, which were easy to carry and can be taken anywhere, then the remote controlling video games. The technology has changed a lot in the past 20 years and there are still many things which have not been applied in the gaming industry. Many plans are there which are yet to be implemented and take form. Gaming is loved by kids, youngsters, and elders, and these gaming fans take interest in the latest technologies of gaming.

The Catalyst - RNA and the Quest...

Thomas R. Cech

For over half a century, DNA has dominated science and the popular imagination as the "secret of life." But over the last several decades, a quiet revolution has taken place. In a series of breathtaking discoveries, the biochemist Thomas R. Cech and a diverse cast of brilliant scientists have revealed that RNA—long overlooked as the passive servant of DNA—sits at the center of biology's greatest mysteries: How did life begin? What makes us human? Why do we get sick and grow old? In The Catalyst, Cech finally brings together years of research to demonstrate that RNA is the true key to understanding life on Earth, from its very origins to our future in the twenty-first century. 
 
 
 
A gripping journey of discovery, The Catalyst moves from the early experiments that first hinted at RNA's spectacular powers, to Cech's own paradigm-shifting finding that it can catalyze cellular reactions, to the cutting-edge biotechnologies poised to reshape our health. We learn how RNA may have jump-started life itself, and how, at the same time, it can cut our individual lives short through viral diseases and cancer. We see how RNA is implicated in the aging process and explore the darker depths of the supposed fountain of youth, telomerase. And we catch a thrilling glimpse into how RNA-powered therapies may enable us to improve and even extend life beyond nature's current limits.

End of Abundance in Tech - How...

Ben DeBow

Sustainable Tech Solutions for Enterprise Scalability 
 
The modern economy runs on technology; it is the backbone of all major businesses. From firing packets of information between customers and websites to tracking customer demographics and purchase history–every bit of information that occurs online is captured through data. As businesses scale and transactions grow, the volume of data (and the number of servers required to store it) creates an increasingly complex environment that makes managing and monitoring the overall health of your organization’s technology stack a dizzying task for even the most well-informed IT professional. 
 
Fortunately for today’s CDOs, CTOs, CIOs, and even CFOs, the founder and CEO of Fortified, a leading database managed service provider, Ben DeBow has written End of Abundance in Tech: How IT Leaders Can Find Efficiencies to Drive Business Value. 
 
DeBow’s patent-pending approach allows IT executives to: 
Develop a technology environment that’s more efficientIncrease server resource productivityProvide better financial transparency into the technology costsOptimize system scalability, performance, and stabilityPotentially save millions that were previously tied up in inefficient technology practices 
 
To determine the health, efficiency, and capacity of their systems, leaders need solutions they can act on. Yet, many technology leaders lack real insights into the health of their technology environment at the organizational level. In a refreshing shakeup of the status quo, DeBow’s book equips IT executives with actionable solutions for managing and monitoring technology health so they can maximize the efficiency of the enterprise’s entire tech stack and deliver measurable value to the bottom line.
