Changes in society require changes in our industrial production. In order to remain competitive in the future, the masses of data available in production must be used urgently. This is still a challenge because data are often not accessible or understandable. Therefore, we developed the Internet of Production (IoP) concept which aims to collect, unify, and exploit different data sources and improve production. To this end, the various research domains of production technology, the need for a common infrastructure, and the concept of the Digital Shadow are presented. The vision can only be achieved through interdisciplinary cooperation between different disciplines. Therefore, the joint approach is explained and common research topics are presented. Interdisciplinary cooperation is the key for further steps to achieve the common vision. The internet and approaches such as the Internet of Things (IoT) have revolutionized the availability of data and knowledge. Therefore, advances under the terms such as Industry 4.0, the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), and Made in China 2025 have been made to combine technological advances in Internet and Communication Technologies with the production technology.

This book discusses the up-and-coming blockchain technology in a structured way from the conceptual, technological, and business perspectives, thereby providing the integrated insight that is essential for truly understanding blockchain applications and their impact. While most people may know about blockchain from Bitcoin and news about its price in the financial markets, blockchain is a technology that increasingly permeates the way in which modern businesses operate. However, its dynamics and functioning remain obscure for most people. This book gives readers the tools to understand the full extent to which blockchain technology is or can be used in business. First, the book focuses on the functioning of blockchain systems, introducing basic concepts such as transactions, consensus mechanisms, and smart contracts, as well as giving a smooth introduction to the basic features of cryptography that underpin blockchain technology, e.g., digital signatures and hashing. Then, the book focuses on specific blockchain platforms (Bitcoin, Ethereum, private blockchain platforms) currently used for the implementation of cryptocurrencies and other blockchain systems.

In the age of global climate change, society will require cities that are environmentally self-sufficient, able to withstand various environmental problems and recover quickly. It is interesting to note that many "smart" solutions for cities are leading to an unsustainable future, including further electrification, an increased dependence on the Internet, Internet of Things, Big Data, and Artificial Intelligence, and basically any technology that leads us to consume more electricity. This book examines critical topics in Smart Cities such as true sustainability and the resilience required for all cities. It explores sustainability issues in agriculture and the role of agri-technology for a sustainable future, including a city’s ability to locally produce food for its residents.

The rapid pace of technology often catches organizations unprepared and unable to take advantage of every leading-edge benefit. Cloud technology allows forward-thinking companies to launch products and services rapidly, control costs, streamline processes, and mitigate risks—when done correctly. This book addresses technological basics, as well as practical steps for implementing and fitting the cloud into your overall business strategy—which ultimately benefits your bottom line in delivering the best possible product and services to customers quickly. The first three chapters of the book cover the journey of the technology from the old-fashioned, on-prem data center to modern-world cloud offerings by commercial entities known as cloud service providers (CSPs). We have taken a balanced approach, using examples from the three major CSPs: Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and Azure. While there are several published training courses and tutorials available, we hope that readers will benefit from our experience in converting the theories into real-life scenarios. Chapter 4 provides an overview of cloud operations. Chapter 5 takes a closer look at cloud monitoring and metrics. Chapters 6 and 7 discuss various cloud providers and how to build and publish an application on the cloud. We also present a view on how cloud providers compare with on-prem data centers and even how the offerings of these providers themselves compare.

Regulating cyber matters is a complex task, as cyberspace is an intricate world full of new threats related to a person's identity, finance, and private information. Algorithm manipulation, hate crimes, cyber-laundering, and data theft are strong menaces in the cyber world. New technologies are generating both privacy and security issues involving anonymity, cross-border transactions, virtual communications, and assets, among others. This book is a collection of works by experts on cyber matters and legal considerations that need addressing in a timely manner. It comprises cross-disciplinary knowledge that is pooled to this end. Risk mitigation tools, including cyber risk management, data protection regulations, as well as ethical practice guidelines are reviewed in detail. A (Distributed) Denial of Service (DoS/DDoS) attack aims to compromise the operation of specific Internet-facing services. One of the most common types of DDoS attacks is the packet flood, whereby an inordinate number of packets are sent to the target system with the goal of consuming all open connections and overloading network usage, leading to the crippling or cessation of services running on that system.

Follow FC as he steals from the world's most secure banks and government facilities—without breaking a single law. In How I Rob Banks: And Other Such Places, renowned ethical hacker and social engineer FC delivers a gripping and often hilarious discussion of his work: testing the limits of physical bank security by trying to "steal" money, data, and anything else he can get his hands on. In the book, you'll explore the secretive world of physical assessments and follow FC as he breaks into banks and secure government locations to identify security flaws and loopholes. Social engineering is the manipulation of people and situations to gain access or information that otherwise is not available to you. Social engineering can sometimes be used to bypass physical security - mechanisms in place to prevent access by unauthorized people - but not always. Organizations pay me to test their security. I use a combination of social engineering and physical attacks to do so. The security I test might be the locks on their doors, the security guards and receptionists, or their computer networks. A can't-miss account of real-life security exploits perfect for infosec pros, including red and blue teamers, pentesters, CIOs, CISSPs, and social engineers, How I Rob Banks also belongs in the hands of anyone who loves a great Ocean's 11-style story pulled straight from the real world.
