Building in Security at Agile Speed

Building in Security at Agile Speed

Today's high-speed and rapidly changing development environments demand equally high-speed security practices. Still achieving security remains a human endeavor a core part of designing generating and verifying software. Dr. James Ransome and Brook S. E. Schoenfield have built upon their previous works to explain that security starts with people; ultimately humans generate software security. People collectively act through a particular and distinct set of methodologies processes and technologies that the authors have brought together into a newly designed holistic generic software development lifecycle facilitating software security at Agile DevOps speed. —Eric. S. Yuan Founder and CEO Zoom Video Communications Inc. It is essential that we embrace a mantra that ensures security is baked in throughout any development process. Ransome and Schoenfield leverage their abundance of experience and knowledge to clearly define why and how we need to build this new model around an understanding that the human element is the ultimate key to success. —Jennifer Sunshine Steffens CEO of IOActive Both practical and strategic Building in Security at Agile Speed is an invaluable resource for change leaders committed to building secure software solutions in a world characterized by increasing threats and uncertainty. Ransome and Schoenfield brilliantly demonstrate why creating robust software is a result of not only technical but deeply human elements of agile ways of working. —Jorgen Hesselberg author of Unlocking Agility and Cofounder of Comparative Agility The proliferation of open source components and distributed software services makes the principles detailed in Building in Security at Agile Speed more relevant than ever. Incorporating the principles and detailed guidance in this book into your SDLC is a must for all software developers and IT organizations. —George K Tsantes CEO of Cyberphos former partner at Accenture and Principal at EYDetailing the people processes and technical aspects of software security Building in Security at Agile Speed emphasizes that the people element remains critical because software is developed managed and exploited by humans. This book presents a step-by-step process for software security that uses today’s technology operational business and development methods with a focus on best practice proven activities processes tools and metrics for any size or type of organization and development practice.

Atmospheric Acoustic Remote Sensing Principles and Applications

Atmospheric Acoustic Remote Sensing Principles and Applications

Sonic Detection and Ranging (SODAR) systems and Radio Acoustic Sounding Systems (RASS) use sound waves to determine wind speed wind direction and turbulent character of the atmosphere. They are increasingly used for environmental and scientific applications such as analyzing ground-level pollution dispersion and monitoring conditions affecting wind energy generation. However until now there have been no reliable references on SODAR and RASS for practitioners in the field as well as non-experts who wish to understand and implement this technology to their own applications. Authored by an internationally known expert in the design and use of SODAR/RASS technology Atmospheric Acoustic Remote Sensing: Principles and Applications systematically explains the underlying science principles and operational aspects of acoustic radars. Abundant diagrams and figures including eight pages of full-color images enhance clear guidelines and tools for handling calibration error equipment hardware sampling and data analysis. The final chapter explores applications in environmental research boundary layer research wind power and loading complex terrain and sound speed profiles. Atmospheric Acoustic Remote Sensing offers SODAR and RASS users as well as general remote sensing practitioners environmental scientists and engineers a straightforward guide for using SODARs to perform wind measurements and data analysis for scientific environmental or alternative monitoring applications. | Atmospheric Acoustic Remote Sensing Principles and Applications

Wind Energy Systems Solutions for Power Quality and Stabilization

Wind Energy Systems Solutions for Power Quality and Stabilization

Unlike conventional power plants wind plants emit no air pollutants or greenhouse gases—and wind energy is a free renewable resource. However the induction machines commonly used as wind generators have stability problems similar to the transient stability of synchronous machines. To minimize power frequency and voltage fluctuations caused by network faults or random wind speed variations control mechanisms are necessary. Wind Energy Systems: Solutions for Power Quality and Stabilization clearly explains how to solve stability and power quality issues of wind generator systems. Covering fundamental concepts of wind energy conversion systems the book discusses several means to enhance the transient stability of wind generator systems. It also explains the methodologies for minimizing fluctuations of power frequency and voltage. Topics covered include: An overview of wind energy and wind energy conversion systems Fundamentals of electric machines and power electronics Types of wind generator systems Challenges in integrating wind power into electricity grids Solutions for power quality problems Methods for improving transient stability during network faults Methods for minimizing power fluctuations of variable-speed wind generator systems This accessible book helps researchers and engineers understand the relative effectiveness of each method and select a suitable tool for wind generator stabilization. It also offers students an introduction to wind energy conversion systems providing insights into important grid integration and stability issues. | Wind Energy Systems Solutions for Power Quality and Stabilization

Handbook of Optical Dimensional Metrology

Handbook of Optical Dimensional Metrology

Due to their speed data density and versatility optical metrology tools play important roles in today’s high-speed industrial manufacturing applications. Handbook of Optical Dimensional Metrology provides useful background information and practical examples to help readers understand and effectively use state-of-the-art optical metrology methods. The book first builds a foundation for evaluating optical measurement methods. It explores the many terms of optical metrology and compares it to other forms of metrology such as mechanical gaging highlighting the limitations and errors associated with each mode of measurement at a general level. This comparison is particularly helpful to current industry users who operate the most widely applied mechanical tools. The book then focuses on each application area of measurement working down from large area to medium-sized to submicron measurements. It describes the measurement of large objects on the scale of buildings the measurement of durable manufactured goods such as aircraft engines and appliances and the measurement of fine features on the micron and nanometer scales. In each area the book covers fast coarse measures as well as the finest measurements possible. Best practices and practical examples for each technology aid readers in effectively using the methods. Requiring no prior expertise in optical dimensional metrology this handbook helps engineers and quality specialists understand the capabilities and limitations of optical metrology methods. It also shows them how to successfully apply optical metrology to a vast array of current engineering and scientific problems.
