Ha kíváncsi az olyan témákra, mint például hogy miként lehet felt?rni egy jelszót, vagy egy webhelyet, esetleg hogyan lehet lehallgatni bárki kommunikációját egy nyílt wifi hálózaton, akkor ez a k?nyv ?nnek szól. Sokan azt hiszik, hogy ezek ?rd?ng?s dolgok, pedig egyáltalán nem azok. ?ppen ezért fontos, hogy védekezni is kell ellenük, ami szintén nem bonyolult, csak egy kis odafigyelésre van szükség. K?nyvünk mindkét oldalt megmutatja, elrettentésképpen a lehet?ségeket, okulásként a védekezési módokat. Ha ?n azt hiszi, hogy biztonságban van, hiszen nem csinál semmi illegálisat és még vírusirtó is van a gépén, akkor nagyon téved! Teljesk?r? védelem ugyanis nem létezik! Ha elolvassa ezt a k?nyvet, meg fog d?bbenni, hogy milyen sok támadási lehet?ség van adataink ellen. A k?nyv, azon túl, hogy ismerteti, mit jelentenek az információbiztonsági szakkifejezések olyan témákkal foglalkozik, mint hogy milyen eszk?z?k támadhatók és hogyan, hogyan dolgozik egy hacker, mekkora kockázatot jelent az emberi tényez? (social engineering), stb. Kitér a jelszavak biztonságára, a kül?nféle hackeléshez használható programok és azok kezelésére, a billenty?zetnaplózási lehet?ségekre, a hálózatok és weboldalak támadására és felt?résére, az online bankolási kockázatokra, a titkosítási módszerekre, illetve hogy mit érdemes tenni a biztonságos adattárolás érdekében.Természetesen senkit sem akarunk illegális tevékenységre buzdítani, célunk sokkal inkább azt megmutatni, hogy mekkora veszélynek vagyunk kitéve, ezáltal a támadási és védekezési lehet?ségek bemutatásával ?szt?n?zzük az embereket a biztonságosabb számítógéphasználatra.

Mivel az informatika egyre inkább átsz?vi életünket, a szoftverek min?ségével kapcsolatos elvárások egyre magasabbak. Egy szoftver el?állítása azonban nem csak programozásból áll, és a programozóktól sem lehet elvárni emberfeletti képességeket, a megrendel? el nem mondott elképzelésének t?kéletesen megfelel?, teljesen hibamentes munkát, mivel csak az nem hibázik, aki nem is dolgozik. Az informatika világában a szoftvertesztel?k azok, akik a szoftverek min?ségéért dolgoznak. A szoftvertesztel?k?n óriási felel?sség nyugszik és folyamatosan elvárások kereszttüzében kell helytállniuk. Mégis, szoftvertesztelés nélkül a legt?bb szoftver el sem jutna a felhasználókig, vagy ha igen, akkor megjelenésük botrányokkal, valamint óriási anyagi és erk?lcsi veszteségekkel járna együtt, a rengeteg fel nem tárt programhiba miatt. Szoftvertesztelésre és tesztel?kre ezért mindenképp szükség van. K?nyvünk a professzionális szoftvertesztelés alapjaival ismerteti meg az olvasót, számos gyakorlati példával f?szerezve, mell?zve a száraz, pusztán technikai megk?zelítés? leírásokat, kezdve a szoftvertesztelés általános bemutatásától, a fogalmak ismertetését?l, majd részleteiben tárgyalva a szoftvertesztelést és annak helyét a fejlesztési folyamatokban. Segítségével jó adag gyakorlati ismerettel vértezhetjük fel magunkat, melynek során valódi, a tesztelést támogató alkalmazásokat ismerhetünk meg, biztos alapot nyújtva a szoftvertesztelésben elhelyezked? leend? és gyakorló szakembereknek a mindennapi munkájukhoz. A szoftverteszteléssel most ismerked? szakembereknek és laikusoknak kimondottan hasznos lehet ez a k?nyv, de fejleszt?k és cégvezet?k számára is tartogat hasznos információkat, melyek segítségével bevezethetik, illetve hatékonyabbá tehetik a szoftvertesztelést munkájuk során.

Explore new and more sophisticated tools that reduce your marketing analytics efforts and give you precise results Key Features * Study new techniques for marketing analytics * Explore uses of machine learning to power your marketing analyses * Work through each stage of data analytics with the help of multiple examples and exercises Book Description Data Science for Marketing Analytics covers every stage of data analytics, from working with a raw dataset to segmenting a population and modeling different parts of the population based on the segments. The book starts by teaching you how to use Python libraries, such as pandas and Matplotlib, to read data from Python, manipulate it, and create plots, using both categorical and continuous variables. Then, you'll learn how to segment a population into groups and use different clustering techniques to evaluate customer segmentation. As you make your way through the chapters, you'll explore ways to evaluate and select the best segmentation approach, and go on to create a linear regression model on customer value data to predict lifetime value. In the concluding chapters, you'll gain an understanding of regression techniques and tools for evaluating regression models, and explore ways to predict customer choice using classification algorithms. Finally, you'll apply these techniques to create a churn model for modeling customer product choices. By the end of this book, you will be able to build your own marketing reporting and interactive dashboard solutions. What you will learn * Analyze and visualize data in Python using pandas and Matplotlib * Study clustering techniques, such as hierarchical and k-means clustering * Create customer segments based on manipulated data * Predict customer lifetime value using linear regression * Use classification algorithms to understand customer choice * Optimize classification algorithms to extract maximal information Who this book is for Data Science for Marketing Analytics is designed for developers and marketing analysts looking to use new, more sophisticated tools in their marketing analytics efforts. It'll help if you have prior experience of coding in Python and knowledge of high school level mathematics. Some experience with databases, Excel, statistics, or Tableau is useful but not necessary.

Industries are embracing IoT technologies to improve operational expenses, product life, and people's well-being. We’ll begin our journey with an introduction to Raspberry Pi and quickly jump right into Python programming. We’ll learn all concepts through multiple projects, and then reinforce our learnings by creating an IoT robot car. We’ll examine modern sensor systems and focus on what their power and functionality can bring to our system. We’ll also gain insight into cloud and fog architectures, including the OpenFog standards. The Learning Path will conclude by discussing three forms of prevalent attacks and ways to improve the security of our IoT infrastructure. By the end of this Learning Path, we will have traversed the entire spectrum of technologies needed to build a successful IoT system, and will have the confidence to build, secure, and monitor our IoT infrastructure. This Learning Path includes content from the following Packt products: * Internet of Things Programming Projects by Colin Dow * Internet of Things for Architects by Perry Lea What you will learn * Build a home security dashboard using an infrared motion detector * Receive data and display it with an actuator connected to the Raspberry Pi * Build an IoT robot car that is controlled via the Internet * Use IP-based communication to easily and quickly scale your system * Explore cloud protocols, such as Message Queue Telemetry Transport (MQTT) and CoAP * Secure communication with encryption forms, such as symmetric key Who this book is for This Learning Path is designed for developers, architects, and system designers who are interested in building exciting projects with Python by understanding the IoT ecosphere, various technologies, and tradeoffs. Technologists and technology managers who want to develop a broad view of IoT architecture, will also find this Learning Path useful. Prior programming knowledge of Python is a must.

A step-by-step guide to learning Flutter and Dart 2 for creating Android and iOS mobile applications Key Features * Get up to speed with the basics of Dart programming and delve into Flutter development * Understand native SDK and third-party libraries for building Android and iOS applications using Flutter * Package and deploy your Flutter apps to achieve native-like performance Book Description Google Flutter is a cross-platform mobile platform that makes it easier to write secure and high-performance native apps for iOS and Android. This book begins by introducing you to the Flutter framework and basics of Dart. You’ll learn to set up the development environment to get started with your Flutter project.
