Cyberattacks are becoming more commonplace and the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP), estimates 94% of sites have flaws in their access control alone.  Attacks evolve to work around new defenses, and defenses must evolve to remain effective.  Developers need to understand the fundamentals of attacks and defenses in order to comprehend new techniques as they become available. This book teaches you how to write secure web applications.The focus is highlighting how hackers attack applications along with a broad arsenal of defenses.  This will enable you to pick appropriate techniques to close vulnerabilities while still providing users with their needed functionality.Topics covered include:A framework for deciding what needs to be protected and how stronglyConfiguring services such as databases and web serversSafe use of HTTP methods such as GET, POST, etc, cookies and use of HTTPSSafe REST APIsServer-side attacks and defenses such as injection and cross-site scriptingClient-side attacks and defenses such as cross-site request forgerySecurity techniques such as CORS, CSPPassword management, authentication and authorization, including OAuth2Best practices for dangerous operations such as password change and resetUse of third-party components and supply chain security (Git, CI/CD etc)What You'll LearnReview the defenses that can used to prevent attacksModel risks to better understand what to defend and howChoose appropriate techniques to defend against attacksImplement defenses in Python/Django applicationsWho This Book Is ForDevelopers who already know how to build web applications but need to know more about securityNon-professional software engineers, such as scientists, who must develop web tools and want to make their algorithms available to a wider audience.Engineers and managers who are responsible for their product/company technical security policy

"A graphic novel told in the form of a sentence diagram. A single 6732-word sentence, diagrammed in full. Set in a parallel-universe United States in which the government has recently been overthrown by a military coup, the story is narrated by a lonely young grammar professor, Riley, who is suddenly branded a traitor by the new regime. Bewildered by the charges, and fearing a death sentence, Riley manages to flee to an anarchist commune in the wilderness. After a lifetime of feeling alienated, of desperately longing for friendship, Riley is astonished to be accepted and loved by the anarchists -- to come to love the anarchists in return. But when the anarchists reveal a plot to assassinate the authoritarian dictator of the country, Riley is forced to choose whether to support the plot -- to return to the capital and help the anarchists bomb the headquarters -- or to lose their newfound family forever.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 8th OpenSHMEM Workshop, held in virtually in August 2021.The 11 full papers and 1 short paper presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in this volume from 18 submissions. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: Applications and Implementations, Tools and Benchmarks, and Applications and Implementations.

This book offers a collection of the essays, letters, interviews, and correspondence of Fr Matthew Baker, exploring the works of Fr Georges Florovsky and the writings of the Church Fathers.'The Fathers are ahead of us, with Jesus-it is we who should be running to catch up to them.' Thus Fr Matthew Baker, in one of the interviews included in this volume, summarizes and defends the understanding of Orthodox theological method espoused by his hero, Fr Georges Florovsky, known as neopatristic synthesis. We tend to be programmed in Western societies into thinking that simply by virtue of living in the twenty-first century, we are somehow 'ahead,' that we are intellectually, morally, and theologically superior to our forebears just because we happen to live later than they did, and in an age of technological marvels. But the measure of what puts us 'ahead' as human beings is neither time nor technology, but our proximity to Jesus Christ. This is what allows the category of the Fathers to remain a steadfast one in Orthodox theology: not simply because in the distant past they forged lasting and faithful expressions of the Gospel, but because in doing so they assimilated the very life of the One they sought to defend and glorify, the Coming One, thereby becoming living witnesses before us (not just behind us) to the only truth that can save human beings....REV. MATTHEW BAKER, PH.D. was an adjunct professor in theology at Hellenic College/Holy Cross Greek Orthodox School of Theology. He published numerous articles and edited multiple books on Fr Georges Florovsky as well as patristics, theology, Scripture, and philosophy more broadly.

Follows four very different protagonists as they search for, and struggle with, connection. Pairing the emotional pursuit of connection with multiple forms of communication, Matthew Baker weaves the languages of HTML, maths, musical notations, and propositional logic into his storytelling in order to unveil nuances of experiences and emotions.

Biophotonic diagnostics/biomedical spectroscopy can revolutionise the medical environment by providing a responsive and objective diagnostic environment. This book aims to explain the fundamentals of the physical techniques used combined with the particular requirements of analysing medical/clinical samples as a resource for any interested party. In addition, it will show the potential of this field for the future of medical science and act as a driver for translation across many different biological problems/questions.
