Data Engineering with Alteryx - Helping data engineers apply DataOps practices with Alteryx

Paul Houghton

Sinopse

Alteryx is a GUI-based development platform for data analytic applications.
Data Engineering with Alteryx will help you leverage Alteryx’s code-free aspects which increase development speed while still enabling you to make the most of the code-based skills you have.
This book will teach you the principles of DataOps and how they can be used with the Alteryx software stack. You’ll build data pipelines with Alteryx Designer and incorporate the error handling and data validation needed for reliable datasets. Next, you’ll take the data pipeline from raw data, transform it into a robust dataset, and publish it to Alteryx Server following a continuous integration process.
By the end of this Alteryx book, you’ll be able to build systems for validating datasets, monitoring workflow performance, managing access, and promoting the use of your data sources.

Epilepsy: A Guide For Parents -...

Edmonton Epilepsy Association

If your child has been diagnosed with epilepsy, you may have questions regarding the condition. What causes epilepsy? How is it diagnosed? What are the available treatments? How can I help my child? It is not unusual for a parent to experience feelings of helplessness, fear, grief, or anger after a child has been diagnosed with epilepsy. Local epilepsy associations can provide you with valuable information regarding your concerns. Many associations have helpful resource materials on epilepsy and a staff committed to answering questions and providing information. Often associations offer in-service training to schools which educate others about the condition. Associations may also be able to provide you with support groups, trained professionals, or other families who are facing similar challenges. In some cases, a diagnosis of epilepsy may require little change in lifestyle. In other cases, there may be significant change for the child and the family. In either situation, learning about epilepsy can empower you and help you make informed decisions regarding medical treatment, care, or safety. Learning about epilepsy may also help to alleviate your own anxiety and allow you to focus on the needs of your child.

Penetration Testing of Computer...

Dr. Hidaia Mahmood Alassouli

Burp Suite is an integrated platform/graphical tool for performing security testing of web applications. Burp suite is a java application that can be used to secure or crack web applications. The suite consists of different tools, like a proxy server, a web spider an intruder and a so-called repeater, with which requests can be automated. You can use Burp's automated and manual tools to obtain detailed information about your target applications.
Damn Vulnerable Web App (DVWA) is a PHP/MySQL web application that is damn vulnerable. Its main goals are to be an aid for security professionals to test their skills and tools in a legal environment, help web developers better understand the processes of securing web applications and aid teachers/students to teach/learn web application security in a class room environment.
In this report I am using a combination of Burp tools to detect and exploit vulnerabilities in Damn Vulnerable Web App (DVWA) with low security. By default, Burp Scanner scans all requests and responses that pass through the proxy. Burp lists any issues that it identifies under Issue activity on the Dashboard. You can also use Burp Scanner to actively audit for vulnerabilities. Scanner sends additional requests and analyzes the application's traffic and behavior to identify issues.
Various examples are outlined in this report for different types of vulnerabilities such as: SQL injection, Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF), Cross-site scripting, File upload, Local and Remote File Inclusion. I tested various types of penetration testing tools in order to exploit different types of vulnerabilities. The report consists from the following parts:
1. Installing and Configuring BurpSuite
2. BurpSuite Intruder.
3. Installing XMAPP and DVWA App in Windows System.
4. Installing PHP, MySQL, Apache2, Python and DVWA App in Kali Linux.
5. Scanning Kali-Linux and Windows Using .
6. Understanding Netcat, Reverse Shells and Bind Shells.
7. Adding Burps Certificate to Browser.
8. Setting up Target Scope in BurpSuite.
9. Scanning Using BurpSuite.
10. Scan results for SQL Injection Vulnerability with BurpSuite and Using SQLMAP to Exploit the SQL injection.
11. Scan Results for Operating System Command Injection Vulnerability with BurpSuite and Using Commix to Exploit the OS Command Injection.
12. Scan Results for Cross Side Scripting (XSS) Vulnerability with BurpSuite, Using Xserve to exploit XSS Injection and Stealing Web Login Session Cookies through the XSS Injection.
13. Exploiting File Upload Vulnerability.
14: Exploiting Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) Vulnerability.
15. Exploiting File Inclusion Vulnerability.
16. References.

Technology Touchpoints -...

PhD MAC Loretta L. C. Brady

This is a story about a family coming of age at the same time as smartphones and social media; a multiracial family coming into its own as windows into social injustice opened up before our very screens; and a multi-parent multi-professional family with children living differently depending on which house and which combination of family members happen to be home. While it is a story about a family, it is really the story of technological and global changes unfolding on our doorsteps. 
 
 
 
While many revile the ascendance of smartphones and social media and the way they suck us into the vortex of cyberspace, there are cultural touchpoints that reflect deeper human and technology development patterns, patterns which we would all do well to understand, no matter whether or how we choose to engage in the ever-innovating digital frontiers. Informed by research and interviews with leaders in policy, human development, ethics, and technology, Loretta Brady helps listeners understand the complex systemic challenges and findings related to technology and human development. 
 
 
 
We do not have to hate or fear technology. It is neither friend nor foe. But understanding its impact on our daily lives is paramount to cultivating a healthier relationship both with our digital lives and our real, lived ones.

Tokens - The Future of Money in...

Rachel O’Dwyer

Wherever you look, money is being replaced by tokens. Digital platforms are issuing new kinds of money-like things, from phone credit, to shares, gift vouchers, game tokens, and customer data. These tokens are used to turn invisible stuff into assets, to pay wages, to track purchases, and to program and specify the terms of financial and political access and inclusion. What does it mean when online platforms become the new banks? What new types of control and discrimination emerge when money is tied to specific apps, or actions, politics, or identities? 
 
 
 
By exploring the history of experiments in extra-monetary economies, O'Dwyer shows that private and grassroots tokens have always ghosted the real economy. But as the large tech platforms issue new money-like instruments, tokens are suddenly everywhere. Amazon's Turk workers getting paid in gift cards. Online streamers trading in wish lists. Gamers working for virtual gold. Coined memes selling for thousands. Bitcoin, gift cards, NFTs, customer data, and game tokens are the new money in an evolving economy. This challenges the balance of power between online empires and the state. For platforms, tokens can be an extra-regulatory sleight of hand. But for everyday users, workers, and online subcultures, tokens can also be subversive, a way of imagining what money could be, now and in the future.
