Operationalizing Threat Intelligence: A guide to developing and operationalizing cyber threat intelligence programs
by Kyle Wilhoit Joseph OpackiLearn cyber threat intelligence fundamentals to implement and operationalize an organizational intelligence programKey FeaturesDevelop and implement a threat intelligence program from scratchDiscover techniques to perform cyber threat intelligence, collection, and analysis using open-source toolsLeverage a combination of theory and practice that will help you prepare a solid foundation for operationalizing threat intelligence programsBook DescriptionWe're living in an era where cyber threat intelligence is becoming more important. Cyber threat intelligence routinely informs tactical and strategic decision-making throughout organizational operations. However, finding the right resources on the fundamentals of operationalizing a threat intelligence function can be challenging, and that's where this book helps. In Operationalizing Threat Intelligence, you'll explore cyber threat intelligence in five fundamental areas: defining threat intelligence, developing threat intelligence, collecting threat intelligence, enrichment and analysis, and finally production of threat intelligence. You'll start by finding out what threat intelligence is and where it can be applied. Next, you'll discover techniques for performing cyber threat intelligence collection and analysis using open source tools. The book also examines commonly used frameworks and policies as well as fundamental operational security concepts. Later, you'll focus on enriching and analyzing threat intelligence through pivoting and threat hunting. Finally, you'll examine detailed mechanisms for the production of intelligence. By the end of this book, you'll be equipped with the right tools and understand what it takes to operationalize your own threat intelligence function, from collection to production.What you will learnDiscover types of threat actors and their common tactics and techniquesUnderstand the core tenets of cyber threat intelligenceDiscover cyber threat intelligence policies, procedures, and frameworksExplore the fundamentals relating to collecting cyber threat intelligenceUnderstand fundamentals about threat intelligence enrichment and analysisUnderstand what threat hunting and pivoting are, along with examplesFocus on putting threat intelligence into productionExplore techniques for performing threat analysis, pivoting, and huntingWho this book is forThis book is for cybersecurity professionals, security analysts, security enthusiasts, and anyone who is just getting started and looking to explore threat intelligence in more detail.

by Nicholas J. Daras Themistocles M. RassiasMathematical methods and theories with interdisciplinary applications are presented in this book. The eighteen contributions presented in this Work have been written by eminent scientists; a few papers are based on talks which took place at the International Conference at the Hellenic Artillery School in May 2015. Each paper evaluates possible solutions to long-standing problems such as the solvability of the direct electromagnetic scattering problem, geometric approaches to cyber security, ellipsoid targeting with overlap, non-equilibrium solutions of dynamic networks, measuring ballistic dispersion, elliptic regularity theory for the numerical solution of variational problems, approximation theory for polynomials on the real line and the unit circle, complementarity and variational inequalities in electronics, new two-slope parameterized achievement scalarizing functions for nonlinear multiobjective optimization, and strong and weak convexity of closed sets in a Hilbert space. Graduate students, scientists, engineers and researchers in pure and applied mathematical sciences, operations research, engineering, and cyber security will find the interdisciplinary scientific perspectives useful to their overall understanding and further research.

Ophthalmic Imaging: Posterior Segment Imaging, Anterior Eye Photography, and Slit Lamp Biomicrography (Applications in Scientific Photography)
by Christye SissonOphthalmic Imaging serves as a reference for the practicing ophthalmic imager. Ophthalmic imaging combines photography and diagnostic imaging to provide insight into not only the health of the eye, but also the health of the human body as a whole. Ophthalmic photographers are specialists in imaging through and in the human eye, one of the only parts of the body where the circulation and nervous system is visible non-invasively. With technical perspective as context, this book will provide instructional techniques as well as the background needed for problem solving in this exciting field. The book covers all aspects of contemporary ophthalmic imaging and provides image support to ophthalmologists and sub-specialties including retinal specialists, corneal specialists, neuro-ophthalmologists, and ocular oncologists. This text serves as a reference for the practicing ophthalmic imager, or to imagers just getting started in the field.

Opinion Mining in Information Retrieval (SpringerBriefs in Applied Sciences and Technology)
by Nilanjan Dey Surbhi Bhatia Poonam ChaudharyThis book discusses in detail the latest trends in sentiment analysis,focusing on “how online reviews and feedback reflect the opinions of users and have led to a major shift in the decision-making process at organizations.” Social networking has become essential in today’s society. In the past, people’s decisions to buy certain products (and companies’ efforts to sell them) were largely based on advertisements, surveys, focus groups, consultants, and the opinions of friends and relatives. But now this is no longer limited to one’s circle of friends, family or small surveys;it has spread globally to online social media in the form of blogs, posts, tweets, social networking sites, review sites and so on. Though not always easy, the transition from surveys to social media is certainly lucrative. Business analytical reports have shown that many organizations have improved their sales, marketing and strategy, setting up new policies and making decisions based on opinion mining techniques.
