Objektorientierte Programmierung
Komplexe Projekte solide strukturieren, tragfähige Designs erstellen, guten Code schreiben und wartbare Software liefern: Dafür brauchen Entwickler ein Repertoire, aus dem Objektorientierung nicht wegzudenken ist. In diesem Buch finden Sie alles, was Sie brauchen, um sich gründlich einzuarbeiten und die Prinzipien der OOP zur Basis Ihrer eigenen Arbeit zu machen. Die Autoren erläutern alle Themen anschaulich und verständlich anhand einer Vielzahl typischer Beispiele. Mit UML-Diagrammen und gut kommentierten Codebeispielen in den gängigsten objektorientierten Sprachen bringen sie Ihnen die Umsetzung nahe. Da so manches lehrreiche Detail erst auftaucht, wenn Sie konkrete Probleme lösen, ziehen sie viele praktische Anwendungsfälle heran und geben immer wieder Tipps, wie Sie bad smells vermeiden und sauberen Code schreiben. Anhand eines größeren Projekts bekommen Sie zudem einmal von Anfang bis Ende gezeigt, wie Sie objektorientierte Programmierung konsequent realisieren können. So profitieren Sie von der langjährigen Erfahrung der Autoren mit allen Aspekten der Entwicklung komplexer Software.

The breaches will be covered in reverse chronological order of the years in which the breaches were made public (even though some of them occurred prior), and in the summary section, I’ll also comment on the relevance and implications of the actual years in which the breaches took place.CHAPTER 1: THE FIVE KEY ROOT CAUSESThis chapter reviews the five basic root causes that we’ll see in all the mega-breaches that will be reviewed in subsequent chapters.* Phishing* Malware* Third-party compromise (suppliers, customers, and partners, as well as acquisitions)* Software Vulnerabilities (application security as well as third-party vulnerabilities)* Inadvertent employee mistakesCHAPTER 2: THE CAPITAL ONE BREACH IN 2019On July 29, 2019, court documents were released regarding a security breach at Capital One that exposed data for over 105 million people. A lone hacker gained access to highly sensitive data including names, social security numbers, addresses, and dates of birth. This hack is just one example in which over a hundred million customer records have been exposed to the entire Internet.* The Modern Day Datacenter: The Cloud and Hybrid Clouds* Erratic: Former Amazon Web Services employee* The Firewall Hack* The Ex-Filtration* The Simple Mistakes* The Charges & The FalloutCHAPTER 3: CAMBRIDGE ANALYTICA & FACEBOOKThe goal of this chapter is to cover two issues that both involved Facebook. The first issue is how Cambridge Analytica, a data analytics firm that assisted President Trump's presidential campaign, abused Facebook to harvest data on 70 million U.S. consumers to create psychographic profiles of them and target ads to influence voting. The second issue is how a vulnerability in Facebook’s “View As” feature (that allows users to see how their profiles look to the public) was exploited to allow for the take over of approximately 50 million Facebook accounts. The sections in this chapter will also set the groundwork for the Facebook hacking of the 2016 election by the Russians.* How Facebook Works* How Facebook Makes Money Through Ads* Political Ads* Security Challenges with Ads: Abusive Targeting, Bad Ads, Malvertising, and Click Fraud* Facebook’s Third-Party Apps and APIs* Cambridge Analytica Harvesting* Bungled Remediation of Harvested Data* The “View As…” Vulnerability * Remediation of the “View As…” VulnerabilityCHAPTER 4: THE MARRIOTT HACK IN 2018The Marriott hack disclosed in 2018 has been the second largest breach of all time as it involved 383 million records, and is only second to Yahoo’s hack of 3 billion email accounts which we’ll describe in see Chapter 8. Passport numbers, and the location history of hundreds of millions of people was amongst the data stolen in the breach. Combined with stolen data from the US Government’s Office of Personnel Management breach (described in Chapter 7), one can even derive the location histories or potentially even impersonate some CIA agents and spies.* Marriott and Starwood* DBA Account Takeover* Malware: Remote Access Trojan and Mimikatz* Starwood Guest Reservation Database ExfiltrationCHAPTER 5: THE EQUIFAX HACK IN 2017The credit histories of 145M+ American consumers were stolen in 2017 in the largest breach of financial identity in history.* Vulnerability Management Problems* Apache Struts and CVE-2017-5638* The Overall State of Information Security at Equifax* The Hack* The Blundered Response* The ImpactCHAPTER 6: THE FACEBOOK HACK IN THE 2016 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONThis chapter describes the organized Russian disinformation campaign in which Facebook was weaponized to distribute over 5 million paid ads that focused on dividing the American public and influencing votes in the 2016 Presidential election.Dezinformatsiya: Inherently Russian * Lack of Regulatory Oversight for Social Media (as compared to TV advertising)* Russian Facebook Ads* The Internet Research Agency: Kremlin-backed Online Troll Farm (amongst 228 groups)Weaponization of Ad Targeting: Swing States (Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Wisconsin) * Suspicious Advertisers: Over 9,500* Fancy Bear: Indictments of 13 Russian IndividualsCHAPTER 7: THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL COMMITTEE HACK IN 2016Just as significant as the disinformation advertising campaign was the infiltration and subsequent leaks of over 150,000 emails from the Democratic National Committee.* Trump’s Request* Massive Phishing Campaign* How John Podesta Got Phished: 60,000 Emails Stolen* Additional Phishing Emails: 150,000 Emails Stolen* Guccifer 2.0* WikiLeaks* Key Emails and Information Leaked* ImpactCHAPTER 8: THE OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT HACK IN 2015The SF-86 background check files of over 20 million government employees (including CIA, NSA, FBI, and other agents) which also included information about their friends, family, and neighbors, as well as over 5 million fingerprints were stolen and exfiltrated by a foreing nation state.* What was stolen* Impact* Root causes* How it could have been preventedCHAPTER 9: THE YAHOO HACK IN 2013 AND 2014 (MADE PUBLIC IN 2016)The largest breach in the history of the Internet and the world occured in 2013 and 2014 when attackers compromised Yahoo’s email and other systems.* Spear phishing * Malware to grow footprint* Cookie minting* Yahoo Account Management Tool Compromise* Targeting of Politicians and Diplomats* Financial Impact and Verizon Acquisition* Former KGB Agents and IndictmentsCHAPTER 10: HOLISTIC IMPLICATIONS* Political Impact* Financial Impact* Regulatory Impact* Technology ImpactPART II: HOW TO RECOVERFor each of the root causes of breaches, we’ll suggest countermeasures for each going forward. Phishing attacks can be successfully combated with better preventative countermeasures. Malware can unfortunately only be detected better, as no one can altogether stop adversaries from authoring malicious software. Existing software vulnerabilities also cannot be prevented, but their detection, containment, and recovery can be managed much more reliably or automated. Vulnerabilities in new applications, as well as other types of software, can be prevented through the introduction of building codes for software, as well as tools to support the development of software that meets those building codes. Finally, vulnerabilities in third-party suppliers can be recursively managed using the approaches that we’ve outlined here.In this second part of the book, technologies that are critical to the roadmap to recovery are explained in plain English. In addition, the contributions that people in various roles need to make and the processes that need to be put in place by those people will also be covered.CHAPTER 11: BETTER PREVENTATIVE COUNTERMEASURESPassword Managers, Multi-factor Authentication, and Yubico-like Hardware Tokens * Authentication Providers (Current as well as potential future e.g. FIDO Alliance)* Automated Patching: Endpoints, Servers, and IoT. Browsers (e.g., Chrome) are a great example of how this can be done right. Mac OS X updates are also a great example, even if a bit inconvenient sometimes. Servers and IoT need help. Mirai botnet from 2016 exhibits the urgency. IoT Guidelines.* Building Codes for SoftwareCHAPTER 12: DETECTION: IDENTITY MONITORING* Difference between credit monitoring and identity monitoring* Dark Web Monitoring* New Account Creation Vs. Account TakeoverCHAPTER 13: DETECTION: BAD ADS, FAKE NEWS, AND ANTI-MALVERTISINGThe goal of this chapter is to focus on detection of bad ads, fake news, and malware that attempt to enter and distribute itself through the online advertising ecosystem.* Bad Ads* Fake News* Malicious software: cannot be prevented, only detection. Not to mention Turing undecidability.CHAPTER 14: CONTAINMENT AND RECOVERY: HOW TO MAKE THE STOLEN DATA USELESSFor any and all information that has been stolen to date, we should attempt to make the stolen data useless. While that can’t be done for all data, and time will be required for some data (perhaps even a generation or two) to become fully obsolete, as in the case of stolen background information, it is will worth the effort to render certain data to be ineffective. For instance, SSNs are currently treated as secrets and are used for authentication of users. However, since most of the SSNs in the country have been stolen, they should not be treated as secrets, and alternative methods for actual authentication should be used. SSNs can still be used as identifiers, but knowledge of someone’s SSN should not allow you to transact as then. A similar argument can be made for the typical questions asked in KBA (knowledge based answer) quizzes. On the other hard, in addition to something a user knows, something that a user has (the user’s cell phone), or something that the user “is” (such as a biometric fingerprint authentication) should be used to authenticate a user. Apple Touch ID, for instance, is a step in the right direction.CHAPTER 15: CYBERSECURITY INVESTMENTS: MADE TO-DATEOver $45 billion has been invested in cybersecurity companies to date, yet the mega-breaches continue. This chapter covers where all this money has been going, and what defenses have been invested in thus far. The chapter also addresses which of the root causes have received what amounts of investment thus far, and whether or not we’ve seen any reductions in those breaches and why or why not.CHAPTER 16: CYBERSECURITY INVESTMENTS: WHAT’S NEED GOING FORWARDThis chapter analyzes what areas of cybersecurity are ripe for further investment. Areas such as cloud security, and artificial intelligence applications to security have received less private equity and public IPO investment as compared to, say, network security and probably warrant more investment going forward.CHAPTER 17: ADVICE TO LEADERSHIPToday, the most security-savvy organizations have their CSO report directly to the CEO, and have regular reporting on security topics to the board of directors. Some CSOs, for instance, report out the state of the information security program to the audit committee once per quarter, and to the full board of directors once per year. This section provides advice to such leaders on how to explain security either to a board of directors or any level of management in between such that the return on investment for security initiatives can be measured, and explained in English in an understandable fashion, often using analogies where necessary.CHAPTER 18: APPLYING YOUR SKILLS TO THE FIELD OF CYBERSECURITYThis section discusses how professionals in various roles (people managers, project managers, product managers, software developers, IT administrators) can get into the field, as well as apply their skills to make contributions to cybersecurity. There are many opportunities for them to strategically apply their skills but also provide critical tactical support when required.This section provides people managers, project managers, software developers, IT administrators, in addition to product managers advice on how they can best leverage their skill sets to achieve security.CONCLUSION / SUMMARY

How to avoid mistakes
Nobody intends to make mistakes. Still, they happen. Sometimes users may not be aware of requirements or make typos. What begins as a small error, later leads to unnecessary work that costs time, money, and nerves. Here, you’ll learn how to guide users in a way that makes errors less likely or even impossible. Or to inform them on input what’s required. In other cases, you may want to prepare data for decision making in a way that one does not need actual typing anymore. And of course, there are the new cloud functionalities of Excel 365 opening new dimensions of co-operations. All of this is explained here.Ina Koys is an experienced instructor for Microsoft Office. Many questions are frequently asked in trainings, but seldom covered in books. Now she answers some of them in her originally German "short & spicy" series. A little accent will add to the fun :-)

Building Custom Tasks for SQL Server Integration Services
Build custom SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) tasks using Visual Studio Community Edition and C#. Bring all the power of Microsoft .NET to bear on your data integration and ETL processes, and for no added cost over what you’ve already spent on licensing SQL Server. New in this edition is a demonstration deploying a custom SSIS task to the Azure Data Factory (ADF) Azure-SSIS Integration Runtime (IR).All examples in this new edition are implemented in C#. Custom task developers are shown how to implement custom tasks using the widely accepted and default language for .NET development.Why are custom components necessary? Because even though the SSIS catalog of built-in tasks and components is a marvel of engineering, gaps remain in the available functionality. One such gap is a constraint of the built-in SSIS Execute Package Task, which does not allow SSIS developers to select SSIS packages from other projects in the SSIS Catalog. Examples in this book show how to create a custom Execute Catalog Package task that allows SSIS developers to execute tasks from other projects in the SSIS Catalog. Building on the examples and patterns in this book, SSIS developers may create any task to which they aspire, custom tailored to their specific data integration and ETL needs.WHAT YOU WILL LEARN* Configure and execute Visual Studio in the way that best supports SSIS task development* Create a class library as the basis for an SSIS task, and reference the needed SSIS assemblies* Properly sign assemblies that you create in order to invoke them from your task* Implement source code control via Azure DevOps, or your own favorite tool set* Troubleshoot and execute custom tasks as part of your own projects* Create deployment projects (MSIs) for distributing code-complete tasks* Deploy custom tasks to Azure Data Factory Azure-SSIS IRs in the cloud* Create advanced editors for custom task parametersWHO THIS BOOK IS FORFor database administrators and developers who are involved in ETL projects built around SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS). Readers do not need a background in software development with C#. Most important is a desire to optimize ETL efforts by creating custom-tailored tasks for execution in SSIS packages, on-premises or in ADF Azure-SSIS IRs.ANDY LEONARD is Chief Data Engineer at Enterprise Data & Analytics, an SSIS trainer, consultant, developer of the Data Integration Lifecycle Management (DILM) Suite, a Business Intelligence Markup Language (Biml) developer, and BimlHero.

Die sieben Weltwunder wurden bereits in der Antike beschrieben, etwa zur selben Zeit wie die mechanische Rechenhilfe Abacus, ein Zählrahmen mit Holz- oder Glasperlen. Dieses Buch beschreibt und diskutiert die sieben Weltwunder der IT, ohne die unsere digitale Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft kaum überlebensfähig scheint: Computermaus, Datenbanken, Kryptografie, Graphgrammatiken, Internet, Blockchain und Soft Computing.Jedes Weltwunder der IT wird kurz charakterisiert, bevor Anwendungsoptionen für Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft exemplarisch aufgezeigt und gewürdigt werden.Das Werk richtet sich an alle, die sich mit der digitalen Transformation auseinandersetzen. Es soll helfen, digitale Entwicklungen im eigenen Unternehmen, in der Verwaltung oder im öffentlichen wie im privaten Leben zu positionieren und zu reflektieren.ANDREAS MEIER hat Musik an der Musikakademie in Wien und Mathematik an der ETH in Zürich studiert, wo er doktorierte und habilitierte. Er arbeitete in internationalen Forschungsinstitutionen und Organisationen und war an der Universität Fribourg, Schweiz für eBusiness und eCommerce verantwortlich. Er gründete und leitete das Forschungszentrum Fuzzy Management Methods (FMsquare.org).FABRICE TSCHUDI hat Kommunikationswissenschaften an der Universität Fribourg und Wirtschaftsinformatik an der Universität Bern studiert. Er setzt sich für eine Vision von digitalen Systemen ein, die zu einer lebensdienlichen Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft im Sinne von nachhaltigem Wohlergehen beitragen. Er begleitet Organisationen auf dem Weg zu „wertvoller Digitalisierung“ und ist überzeugt, dass partizipative Lern- und Arbeitsformate hierfür ein zentraler Erfolgsfaktor sind.De septem mundi miraculis - Vom Abacus zur digitalen Rechenmaschine - Die 7 Weltwunder der IT - Wo führt die Reise hin? - Literatur
