Azure Arc Systems Management
This book is for enterprise and solution architects, systems integrators, and anyone managing enterprise-scale, multi-cloud or hybrid IT landscapes. The book examines usage of Azure Arc for governance and systems management with security as an overarching theme. It is not an implementation manual but provides high-level guidance on best practices and links to detailed guidance. It offers insight into the types of problems that Azure Arc can solve, and will help you determine whether it is the right choice for your organization.Modern enterprise computing is an astonishing luxury land filled with never-before-seen hosting options on commercial clouds as well as advancements in the areas of private cloud and edge computing. The challenge with this plethora of choices is to manage and coordinate large IT estates which may bridge multiple public clouds and private datacenters. Visibility of operations to achieve security, cost control, and efficiency is often difficult to achieve. Data management is another area which is particularly fraught with complexity and risk.Industry leaders have made serious investments in the design of control plane products to address these gaps with varying approaches and degrees of success. Azure Arc is designed to provide a consolidated view of assets such as databases and Kubernetes installations across major cloud providers, edge locations, and customer-owned datacenters. It facilitates deployment of new infrastructure, patching and upgrades, monitoring, policy, and security controls for assets living on-premises or in competitor clouds as if they were native to Azure. While competitive products exist, at this writing none have the flexibility and reach of Arc to effectively manage very large hybrid estates.Readers will appreciate the author’s approach of walking through typical enterprise computing scenarios while listing industry- or scenario-specific challenges that are difficult to overcome, and then reinforcing understanding by restating the challenges while explaining how Azure Arc can be utilized to remediate them.WHAT YOU WILL LEARN* Discover what Azure Arc is, the types of problems it is intended to solve, and how to map your requirements to its capabilities* Streamline and secure large Arc-enabled Kubernetes deployments via modern GitOps practices* Use Azure Arc to consolidate management across a broad range of hybrid and multi-cloud ecosystems through policy-driven governance* Apply monitoring and automation to defend systems against security threats that are beyond the ability of manual administration to deflect* Uncover practical guidance that is written in a way that makes basic precepts approachable to non-technical stakeholders and then branches out into areas that will offer advanced readers new insights and consolidate a broad topic into a usable directionWHO THIS BOOKIS FOREnterprise and solution architects, systems integrators, and anyone else looking to solve enterprise-scale administration problems across a multi-cloud or hybrid architectureRAMONA MAXWELL is an experienced Enterprise Solution Architect who has worked with clients across a broad spectrum of the Fortune 100 such as utilities, finance, and healthcare organizations.

Designing to FIPS-140
This book provides detailed and practical information for practitioners to understand why they should choose certification. It covers the pros and cons, and shows how to design to comply with the specifications (FIPS-140, SP800 documents, and related international specs such as AIS31, GM/T-0005-2021, etc.). It also covers how to perform compliance testing. By the end of the book, you will know how to interact with accredited certification labs and with related industry forums (CMUF, ICMC). In short, the book covers everything you need to know to make sound designs.There is a process for FIPS-140 (Federal Information Processing Standard) certification for cryptographic products sold to the US government. And there are parallel certifications in other countries, resulting in a non-trivial and complex process. A large market of companies has grown to help companies navigate the FIPS-140 certification process. And there are accredited certification labs you must contract toget the certification.Although this was once a fairly niche topic, it is no longer so. Other industries—banking, military, healthcare, air travel, and more—have adopted FIPS certification for cryptographic products. The demand for these services has grown exponentially. Still, the available skills pool has not grown. Many people are working on products with zero usable information on what to do to meet these standards and achieve certification or even understand if such certification applies to their products.WHAT YOU WILL LEARN* What is FIPS-140? What is the SP800 standard?* What is certification? What does it look like? What is it suitable for?* What is NIST? What does it do?* What do accredited certification labs do?* What do certification consultants do?* Where and when is certification required?* What do FIPS-140 modules look like?* What are the sub-components of FIPS-140 modules (RNGs, PUFs, crypto functions)? How does certification work for them?* What are the physical primitives (RNGs, PUFs, key stores) and how do you handle the additional complexity of certifying them under FIPS?* What are the compliance algorithms (AES, SP800-90 algos, SHA, ECDSA, key agreement, etc.)?* How do you design for certification (BIST, startup tests, secure boundaries, test access, zeroization, etc.)?* How do you get CAVP certificates (cert houses, ACVTs)?* How do you get CMVP certifications (cert houses, required documents, design information, security policy, etc.)?WHO THIS BOOK IS FORHardware and software engineers or managers of engineering programs that include any form of cryptographic functionality, including silicon vendors, library vendors, OS vendors, and system integratorsDAVID JOHNSTON is an engineer at Intel working on cryptographic hardware used in Intel CPUs and other silicon products. He has been directly involved in the development of the SP800-90 and FIPS140 standard revisions and is active in FIPS-related industry forums—he has several FIPS and CAVP certifications. David spent 30 years in various hardware and software roles and is the author of Random Number Generators, Principles and Practices.RICHARD FANT performs security assessments for Intel products and platforms by evaluating the FIPS 140-3 compliance and design strategy for the FPGA Business Unit (Programmable Solution Group).

Auf dem Weg zu Netto-Null-Zielen
Dieses Buch diskutiert die Verwendung von Technologie, Data Science und Open Data, um das Netto-Null-Emissionsziel des Pariser Abkommens zum Klimawandel zu erreichen. Es gibt viele Diskussionen über Nachhaltigkeit und Lösungen für den Klimawandel, um die negativen Auswirkungen zu mildern. Die Verwendung von Technologiehebeln zur Bewältigung von Klimaherausforderungen wird jedoch selten als der bedeutendste Katalysator betrachtet. Die verfügbare Forschung in diesem Bereich ist im Allgemeinen qualitativer Natur, bei der Technologie und Daten noch nicht genutzt wurden. Durch den Einsatz von KI/ML sagt das Buch die Klimawandelfolgen aufgrund von Investitionen in den fossilen Brennstoffsektor voraus, schätzt die CO2-Emissionen des Verkehrssektors, prognostiziert die durch nicht erneuerbare Energiequellen verursachte durchschnittliche Landtemperatur und segmentiert indische Bundesstaaten auf der Grundlage von Haushalts-CO2-Emissionen. Die Forscher, Entscheidungsträger, Studenten, Lehrer, Bildungseinrichtungen, Regierungen, Regulierungsbehörden, Unternehmen, internationale Organisationen usw. werden immens von diesem Buch profitieren. Darüber hinaus soll dieses Buch dazu dienen, den nächsten Generationen eine dekarbonisierte Umgebung und eine bessere Zukunft zu bieten.
