Summary

Maintaining your cybersecurity posture in the ever-changing, fast-paced security landscape requires constant attention and advancements. This book will help you safeguard your organization using the free and open source OWASP Zed Attack Proxy (ZAP) tool, which allows you to test for vulnerabilities and exploits with the same functionality as a licensed tool. Zed Attack Proxy Cookbook contains a vast array of practical recipes to help you set up, configure, and use ZAP to protect your vital systems from various adversaries. If you're interested in cybersecurity or working as a cybersecurity professional, this book will help you master ZAP.
You’ll start with an overview of ZAP and understand how to set up a basic lab environment for hands-on activities over the course of the book. As you progress, you'll go through a myriad of step-by-step recipes detailing various types of exploits and vulnerabilities in web applications, along with advanced techniques such as Java deserialization.
By the end of this ZAP book, you’ll be able to install and deploy ZAP, conduct basic to advanced web application penetration attacks, use the tool for API testing, deploy an integrated BOAST server, and build ZAP into a continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipeline.

    The Farrier’s Mindset: How to Understand, Apply and Explain Farriery Knowledge 
     
    Farriery is more than knowing what to do beneath a horse’s foot. It is about understanding why you are doing it, applying knowledge to the individual horse and being able to explain your decisions clearly. 
     
    The Farrier’s Mindset is a comprehensive audio learning and revision resource designed to help listeners develop a deeper understanding of farriery and equine locomotion. Drawing on practical experience, scientific knowledge and years of professional education, Marc Jerram explores the principles that underpin effective hoof care and encourages listeners to think critically rather than simply follow established routines. 
     
    The audiobook examines how anatomy, biomechanics, pathology, movement, hoof balance, shoeing techniques and diagnostic information can be brought together when assessing and managing the individual horse. It also considers the importance of observation, clinical reasoning, communication and working collaboratively with veterinary surgeons, veterinary physiotherapists, owners and other equine professionals. 
     
    The Farrier’s Mindset is particularly suited to farriers undertaking continuing professional development, those preparing for further qualifications, and equine professionals wishing to strengthen their understanding of the farrier’s role. It is also intended to support horse owners who want to develop a more informed understanding of hoof care and the decisions made about their horse. 
     
    This audiobook provides an opportunity to learn and revise wherever you are, whether travelling, working or simply taking time to develop your knowledge.

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. 
    At night, a Virginia neighbourhood begins to hum. The sound comes from the buildings powering a future everyone is being told to embrace. 
    Hundreds of miles away, electricity bills jump. In Oregon, a city fights to keep its data centres’ water use out of public view. In Memphis, the promise of a cleaner future runs into gas turbines. What connects these places? 
     
    Who Pays for the AI Gold Rush? follows the race to build AI’s physical empire. Tech giants need power faster than the grid can supply it. Utilities want billions to expand. Towns are offered investment, but must live with the noise, construction, and demand for water. Behind every new project is the same gamble: the promised AI economy has to become valuable enough to justify what is being built for it. 
     
    If the gamble succeeds, who collects the rewards? If it fails, who is left with the bill?

    Borders of Care - Immigrants...

    Probes the relationship between the immigration and health care systems in the United States. For the roughly ten million undocumented immigrants living in the United States, federal health care coverage is out of reach. Barred from Medicare, Medicaid, and the Affordable Care Act, most rely on hospital emergency rooms when they get sick, or clinics that don’t inquire about immigration status. Further obstacles to health care, including discrimination and the fear of deportation, mean that immigrants, undocumented or not, seek and receive less medical attention than any other population in the country. Yet immigrants haven’t always been ostracized from health care in the United States—providers and activists have for over a century worked to make medical services available to newcomers and migrants, including, at times, the undocumented. Drawing together stories from diverse communities from the mid-nineteenth century to the present, Borders of Care examines how health care in the United States has both included and excluded immigrants. Beatrix Hoffman analyzes both the health and immigration systems, adding to our understanding of why these structures, and the policies that support them, have resisted reform. Moreover, she shows that immigrants, often scapegoated as burdens on the health-care system, have strengthened it through their responses to systemic exclusion. By creating hospitals and clinics, serving as practitioners, fighting for safer workplaces, filing lawsuits, organizing and protesting, immigrants and migrants have improved medical access for everybody and advanced the idea of health care as a universal right. As accessible as it is authoritative, Hoffman’s survey could not be more timely.
