Why do some organizations emerge from a data breach unscathed, while others are badly damaged, or even collapse? How can you make smart choices to protect your organization before and after a data breach? This book exposes the high-octane world of data breach disclosure and response, where IT help desk staff have the power to save or destroy a company, and cutting-edge attorneys must often parachute in to save the day. You'll watch as one of the world's most experienced cybersecurity professionals dissects high-profile data breaches, reveals what happened, and reveals exactly what you can do to navigate a massive data breach -- quickly mitigating damage to your digital assets, finances, and organizational reputation. Sherri Davidoff teaches through storytelling, making this book powerfully accessible and practically useful to everyone from the boardroom to the server closet.

Drawing on her immense personal experience with digital forensics, incident response, security awareness training, penetration testing, and web security assessment -- and her work teaching in venues from Black Hat to the Department of Defense -- Davidoff introduces today's most comprehensive and practical framework for data breach response. You'll discover: Critical turning points throughout data breach events, and how to respond to each of them How breach response lifecycles are changing: why classic incident response approaches are no longer sufficient, and what to do instead How internal politics can affect data breach response, and what to do about it How to read between the lines of public statements and notifications (or lack thereof) What you need to know about breaches in retail and other specific industries -- and the limitations of standards such as PCI/DSS How to protect against and recover from ransomware How to assess products and services such as Commercial Off-The-Shelf Breach Response, cybersecurity insurance, and crisis management services What you can do right now to make breach response less traumatic An insider's guide offering a new, systematic, and practical framework for data breach response: finally, an accessible, comprehensive playbook for what to do when Built around in-depth and highly-specific case studies: what really happened at ChoicePoint, TJ Maxx, Heartland, Target, Anthem, Sony, Children's Hospital Boston, and more Identifies critical decision points in high-profile data breaches, and explores the risks and benefits of the choices that were made at the time Written by the hacker featured in the bestseller 'Breaking and Entering: The Extraordinary Story of a Hacker Called "Alien"How to protect your organization against massive data breaches, and mitigate the financial and reputational consequences if they happen An insider's guide offering a new, systematic, and practical framework for data breach response: finally, an accessible, comprehensive playbook for what to do when Built around in-depth and highly-specific case studies: what really happened at ChoicePoint, TJ Maxx, Heartland, Target, Anthem, Sony, Children's Hospital Boston, and more Identifies critical decision points in high-profile data breaches, and explores the risks and benefits of the choices that were made at the time

This is today's best single source for the techniques you need to troubleshoot BGP issues in modern Cisco IOS, IOS XR, and NxOS environments. BGP has expanded from being an Internet routing protocol and provides a scalable control plane for a variety of technologies, including MPLS VPNs and VXLAN. Bringing together content previously spread across multiple sources, Troubleshooting BGP describes BGP functions in today's blended service provider and enterprise environments. Two expert authors emphasise the BGP-related issues you're most likely to encounter in real-world deployments, including problems that have caused massive network outages. They fully address convergence and scalability, as well as common concerns such as BGP slow peer, RT constraint filtering, and missing BGP routes. For each issue, key concepts are presented, along with basic configuration, detailed troubleshooting methods, and clear illustrations. Wherever appropriate, OS-specific behaviors are described and analysed.

Developed and proven as part of a special laboratory course at the University of Texas, this unique book makes wireless communication accessible both to undergraduates and to practicing electrical engineers who haven't specialized in communications. Introduction to Wireless Digital Communication: A Signal Processing Perspective goes beyond broad survey coverage, while assuming the right mathematical depth for undergraduates and building on the foundational DSP knowledge most of them already have. Using this text, instructors can teach wireless technologies without requiring other analog or digital communication prerequisites. Robert W. Heath, Jr. presents: A comprehensive view of communication in wireless channels that accounts for practical impairments Algorithms for channel estimation, equalization, frame synchronization, and carrier frequency offset synchronization Focused coverage of widely-deployed quadrature pulse amplitude modulation technology Least squared estimation techniques, building on the linear algebra typically taught to electrical engineering undergraduates Modular, "less is more" coverage of realistic example cases, rather than an attempt to help students solve every single problem that might arise Introduction to Wireless Digital Communication contains examples, homework problems, and lecture notes, and is supported with attractive adoption materials, including PowerPoint presentations, solutions and MATLAB manuals. (A separate Laboratory Manual is sold with hardware from National Instruments.)
