![]() Nitin Sharma, Jeremy Martin, Daniel Traci, "Securing Docker: The Attack and Defense Way" English | 2020 | ASIN: B08RCD859B | 51 pages | EPUB / MOBI | 15.19 MB Containerization is increasing widely with the adoption of Docker for container workloads. It's always easy to spin a container and start working on it. But wait! Have you ever thought of the security of your container workloads? Did your Docker Container ecosystems can defend themselves against latest sophisticated attacks? Or, you might be relying on legacy security systems to make them do the security work for you. If you are still thinking the same, you need to cope up with the existing solutions since container security concerns impose huge risks to the IT infrastructure. Malwares like Doki and Kinsing have already targeted and exploited vulnerable Docker containers and host systems and there are more attacks to come in future too. In such times, this little book can help you in your quest to understand the Docker Container Attack patterns and to devise the strategy for securing and hardening your container environments with a couple of research articles and a lot of tools and hands-on exercises. ![]() Secrets of the Sex Masters by Mango Garden Press English | September 25, 2014 | ISBN: 0989813843 | 258 pages | Rar (PDF, AZW3) | 2.34 Mb WINNER, 2015 Book of the Year award! (AASECT, the American Association of Sex Educators, Counselors & Therapists) ![]() Rethinking Teaching in Higher Education: From a Course Design Workshop to a Faculty Development Framework By Alenoush Saroyan, Cheryl Amundsen 2004 | 270 Pages | ISBN: 1579220460 | PDF | 7 MB This book is intended for faculty and faculty developers, as well as for deans, chairs, and directors responsible for promoting teaching and learning in higher education. Intentionally non-technical, it engages readers reflectively with a process for developing teaching and details the planning necessary to apply this process to teaching within disciplines.The book centers on McGill University's week-long Course Design and Teaching Workshop that the contributors have offered together for more than ten years. It follows the five day format of the workshop-covering the analysis of course content, conceptions of learning, the selection of appropriate teaching strategies, the evaluation of student learning, and evaluation of teaching-in a way that reflects the spontaneity of the debates it has engendered and the workshop's evolutionary changes. The structure shows faculty members conceptualizing new courses or re-examining their teaching of existing courses, and translating the insights gained from the workshop to specific disciplinary content and learning outcomes. In addition four previous participants of the workshop write about its influence on their personal thinking about the practice of teaching.The final two chapters describe the structure and evolving role of McGill's Centre for University Teaching and Learning. The authors describe its objectives in fostering an evidence-based teaching culture and providing a practical support structure with limited resources. They highlight achievements in disseminating teaching expertise across their campus, and their vision for the future role of faculty development. This book provides faculty developers and administrators with valuable non-prescriptive models and challenging ideas that promote faculty development in general and university teaching in particular. It engages faculty members in the process of course design in a way that is learning centered and can lead to deep student learning. ![]() Quantitative Methods in Health Care Management: Techniques and Applications By Yasar A.

Stillman 2008 | 283 Pages | ISBN: 0754663698 | PDF | 3 MB Celebrations of literary fictions as autonomous worlds appeared first in the Renaissance and were occasioned, paradoxically, by their power to remedy the ills of history. Robert E. Stillman explores this paradox in relation to Philip Sidney's "Defence of Poesy", the first Renaissance text to argue for the preeminence of poetry as an autonomous form of knowledge in the public domain. Offering a fresh interpretation of Sidney's celebration of fiction-making, Stillman locates the origins of his poetics inside a neglected historical community: the intellectual elite associated with Philip Melanchthon (leader of the German Reformation after Luther), the so-called Philippists.As a challenge to traditional Anglo-centric scholarship, his study demonstrates how Sidney's education by Continental Philippists enabled him to dignify fiction-making as a compelling form of public discourse - compelling because of its promotion of powerful new concepts about reading and writing, its ecumenical piety, and its political ambition to secure through natural law (from universal 'Ideas') freedom from the tyranny of confessional warfare. Intellectually ambitious and wide-ranging, this study draws together various elements of contemporary scholarship in literary, religious, and political history in order to afford a broader understanding of the Defence and the cultural context inside which Sidney produced both his poetry and his poetics. ![]() Payment Systems in Global Perspective By Maxwell J.
